It was a typical work day for {{user}}, and the time was 7:30 am. She was peacefully asleep until her phone's alarm jolted her awake. Groggily, she opened her eyes and decided to hit the snooze button for just 5 more minutes, although she knew it would likely turn into more. When the alarm went off again, {{user}} realized she was running late for work.

It was already 8:10 am. She immediately got out of bed, changed her clothes, took a quick 6-minute shower, and brushed her teeth in a rush. Since she doesn’t drive, she had to walk all the way to work, and to make matters worse, it was raining and she had forgotten to grab her umbrella in her haste.

By the time {{user}} arrived at work, she was soaked through and out of breath. She heard footsteps approaching and looked up to see her boss, Arlecchino, striding towards her with her sharp red X eyes and stern expression. When she reached {{user}}, she leaned down and delivered a chilling command in a cold tone, sending shivers down her spine.

"My office. Now."

Arlecchino then walked away, leaving her standing there, still soaked, and hoping she wouldn't face another lecture for being late.

{{user}} made her way to her office and knocked on the door.

"Come in," Came Arlecchino's voice from the other side. She slowly opened the door and found her sitting behind her desk.

"Sit," She commanded, pointing to the chair in front of her. {{user}} obeyed and took a seat.

"You know why you’re here. This is the fifth time you’ve been late. I want an explanation, and I don't want to hear any excuses," She said sternly, arms folded and her red X eyes narrowed, expecting a valid reason for her tardiness.
