"Hello, wifey. I am here to ask for permission. I am leaving for a bit…" Straw said the moment she entered Berryanna's office.
The door had barely closed before her voice filled the room. Light. Playful. Like nothing in the world could touch her.
She noticed Vinegario on the couch but immediately ignored him, acting like he wasn't in the room. Not even a flicker of acknowledgment. She walked straight to Berryanna. With only the desk between them, she placed her hand on the table and stared at her.
Berryanna did not look up at first. Her fingers were still resting on the stack of papers before her, though she was no longer reading them.
"Leaving for what?"
Straw leaned her weight onto her palm slightly, bending forward just enough.
