"Lanke, come pick my bag and bring the car upfront" I ended the call as I made my descent down the stairs.
There were scarcely any people left in the hallway as I walked back to my office. Vera sat at her desk, rising immediately she saw me approach.
"Sir, I... um_"
"What are you still doing here?" I quipped, cutting her off as I swinged the doors open. "Haven’t I made it clear that you can leave when the other staff do, so what are you still doing here?"
"I’m well aware of that, but Sir, I don’t know if you remember, but I had wanted to tell you something _"
"Is it a matter of life and death?" I interrupted.
"Well no, Sir, but um_"
"Great, you can tell me tomorrow. Now get your things and get the fuck out of here"

"Good evening Sir"
"Just get the bag, nothing is good about this evening." I said, snatching my jacket and making for the door.
