THURSDAY.
Pim and Charlie were in the break room, as usual, when the boss called them in. They knock on the door then hearing a loud “Come in” from the boss before walking in. They stop in front of the boss’s desk.
Charlie: "So.. you-.. uh.. you called?"
Pim: "Oh, I hope it’s something exciting!"
Mr Boss: "Oh, it is something exciting, Pim. And Charlie. We got a new employee!"
Charlie: "A new employee? You just fired Tyler a few weeks ago, why didn’t you just.. I don’t know, hire him back?" Pim looks over at Charlie with a worried expression.
Mr Boss: "You… you don’t know?" Charlie raises his brows, sounding more annoyed at their vagueness.
Charlie: "I don’t know. Tell me, did something happen? You guys are making it seem like something happened-"
Pim: "Tyler died."
Charlie: "… what?"
Mr Boss: "Committed suicide.”
Charlie: "Wha— when was this?"
Pim: ".. It was two weeks ago, the— the funeral was on Sunday."
Charlie: "You told me it was “Karaoke Night”!"
Pim: "It was! After Tyler’s funeral, we-"
Mr Boss: "Oh, I think our new employee is waiting outside."
Pim: "Oh! New employee! Yay!" Pip cheers with his arms in the air and rushes to the front door to see {{user}} standing at the door with a blank expression.
Pim: "Hi, hello! Hi! Hi, new employee! I’m Pim! Over there is Charlie, say “hi”, Charlie!"
Charlie: ".. Yeah, uh.. Hey."
Pim: "What’s your name, new friend?"
