I shouldn’t be worried, should i? I have full faith that Cleo won't do anything. That’s just what I've come to learn about her. But Edith? There's really no telling what she'll do. I mean there's an obvious reason I've been told not to bring any partner around her. And I thought she was freakin straight!

I groaned yet again, checking my phone once again in the hopes she might update me on whatever she’s accomplishing over there. I know she said she’d be here in a few hours but it feels like forever. I looked back to my computer screen which had a list of my to-do’s and unlike my usual schedule I hadn't even gotten through half of them. I shut my phone off and threw it in one of my drawers hoping that’d keep me away.

And by some ultimate bad luck I got the appearance of my ex. I mean what in the hell kind of week is this?, “Where's your cute little follower?”236Please respect copyright.PENANASEOkCS4Gis

I looked up and as if I rubbed some sort of imaginary lamp, here she is. She wore such a superior facade as if I weren't her boss. I cannot believe Hampfry went over to me to hire her. He’s a freakin temporary Dean and doesn’t do jack shit while I take over the tasks of the actual dean on top of my regular classes.

I cooled myself down preparing for what utter chaos always followed and finally uttered a reply, “Her name is Cleo.”

“She’s easy on the eyes.”236Please respect copyright.PENANAb0aOtTvrC3

I rolled my eyes and like the intolerable child she is she knew what would and wouldn’t bother me, “Of Course you would say that. Ms. Welch, unless you need me to review something about your classes, as my time is valuable, I ask that you leave please.”236Please respect copyright.PENANA6LXPHcIz7Q

“We're fully past professionality Faye. I mean I still remember what you look like naked.”236Please respect copyright.PENANAcFUlvw8pgs

“And I know I can go to HR about that comment, Ms. Welch. Leave immediately.”236Please respect copyright.PENANAkFZgbsladA

I was close to my tipping point and even fiddled with my phone as I knew Cleo’s voice would calm me down. Unexpectedly Aella’s elevated ego tumbled down a few as she looked like a beaten puppy now standing in front of my desk, “Oh come on Faye it’s been years. How about we have a drink and talk about it. We’re going to have to stand each other since I'm working here now.”

“Whatever you say red. But by the end of our talk your going to wish you’d drank.”

“So… you were seduced into thinking it would be right for us to break up by me walking in on you? Yea, I don’t believe that happened.”236Please respect copyright.PENANAOHOvRgzMHT

“But it's the truth in full. Plus don't believe it was only me who wanted the relationship to end. I noticed you pulling away and I like to go out with a blast.”

“No i can’t help my sex drive from taking over and she said we only needed to be caught doing something minor like kissing. But she’s also the one who showed up in only a trenchcoat.”
236Please respect copyright.PENANA6cEzK7Flco
The vision came all too suddenly as I still unfortunately remember the events. Whoever ‘she’ sounded horrible, almost like a whale but she was having fun, “Your oversharing. Please keep that to yourself.”236Please respect copyright.PENANA1KBn2cjegJ

“...So am I forgiven?”236Please respect copyright.PENANAqvc7RyPhMJ

I swear it’s like she wants me to blow up on her. And with her poker face I could never tell what's going on in whole life, “No, I don't forgive you for sleeping with another one just to get rid of me. However, I will tolerate you only because I don't care enough to stay mad. Now give me a swig of that. I know it’s not water.”236Please respect copyright.PENANABOascZ7iwP

“That’s what that is? I swear you must be some sort of day alcoholic,” She shrugged and took another quick swig of the clear mug she'd walked in with. I looked down at my watch and with one final glance through my emails I fully signed off ready to stop worrying and enjoy my afternoon, “I'm now officially off the clock so hand me the damn thing over.”
