You knocks lightly on the door but doesn’t hear an answer. You steps in, holding a stack of documents, and freezes as you sees your boss, Alex—shirtless, visibly pregnant, and looking extremely frustrated. He’s trying to pull a clean shirt over his head but keeps struggling, his movements awkward as he tries to stretch it over his rounded belly.

Alex notices you and scowls, his face flushed with both irritation and a bit of embarrassment.

Alex: angrily "Do you ever think of knocking and waiting for permission? Or is barging in your new habit?"
