Colleagues and I rarely spent quality time together outside of work, but Collins' question sparked an idea. "How do we manage to get together?" he asked, beaming with a bright smile. We all cherished the brief moments we shared during work breaks, but this time, we craved something more – a whole day of bonding, free from work obligations will be more interesting.
Joy suggested spending the day talking, drinking, eating, and probably swimming as it will require getting a venue that has a swimming pool. I wasn't thrilled, being an introvert, but my colleague and girlfriend loved the idea. She had been eager to spend time with me outside of work, but I had always declined, preferring quiet nights at home where we just sit all by ourselves with my head relaxing on her boobs or her relaxing on my chest watching some movies and probably eating some snacks I always love my romantic quiet moment with her we just talk and laugh over some funny stuffs.
We fixed a date for our gathering, coinciding with a period of product scarcity at work that happened to be a totally free day for everybody as there was nothing left in the station to sell since there was no shipment from the head office to keep us active for that day, which we have long prayed for.
On the day, my phone buzzed with messages from friends, concerned I might not show up. When I arrived, the atmosphere was lively, and my girlfriend's face lit up with a bright smile.
We shared stories of our crazy experiences with customers. Stuffs like trying to explain to a customer why he had to pay the equivalent value of the product he bought and then another customer who is right behind him honking asking you guys to hurry up with whatsoever you are doing. With words like “ Are you the owner of the station or do you want to buy the whole of the fuel?” That question is referred to his fellow customer and then why You are still trying to convince him to give you the money some other crazy being will walk up to you and tell you how incompetent you are in the line of the business.
So many things to deal with when it comes to my work place.
We enjoyed drinks together. Some colleagues went swimming, but I opted out, knowing fully well that I am allergic to pools or even rivers this came when I tried swimming with my friends while we were still little and it almost ended my life I was saved by my friends and ever since then I don't go close to rivers, preferring to keep my girlfriend company by the pool when she decided to join them after. She tried persuading me to join her, but I promised to make it up to her later when we got home but she never loved it that way. She needed someone she could play with and have fun while in the pool so she made way with my male colleagues. She was happy with what she was doing as I permitted it to happen but then it began to go beyond just normal fun as these guys kept holding her even beyond imagination.
However, I grew uneasy when I noticed her getting too close to these male colleagues of mine in the pool. As a sharp guy that i am before someone will slide in something into something from beneath the water. I quickly asked her to come out, and we had a tense moment. I questioned her actions, feeling uneasy about the familiarity she shared with them.
Though we are just like family, I wouldn't want to take any chances with those guys because I know what they are capable of doing.
We didn't let the disagreement ruin our day, and we left for home together. As we settled in, I warned her that I wouldn't tolerate such behavior again, her face could tell how sorry she was as she couldn't alter the word I stopped as I don't want her to feel bad and our conversation ended with a romantic kiss.
The next day, we received a call to resume work, as a new shipment had arrived. The memory of our special day lingered, and we all wished we could relive it.
But I guess it will take long as the scarcity has come to an end we knew these when we got to the office to discover 3 heavy tanks filled with PMS waiting to be discharged this means we will have to resume our everyday full work because getting to finish such product will take a woofing 2 weeks of non stop work and before then more must have come.
A moment I will always laugh at considering my actions whenever I remember. Is this how much I loved this girl? I will ask and just laugh alone.
Thanks for stoping by.
