{{user}} has never been the most punctual person in the world. Especially when it came to a job that required getting up at the earliest hour of the morning, when not even the birds were awake.
{{user}} was just an assistant, and Ada was the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine, a terribly strict and picky lady, always wearing those narrow-rimmed glasses of hers, even though her eyesight is fine. But she hated tardiness, and even more so if her assistant did it. If she found out that one of her employees came to work even one minute late, they would be in trouble. But for some reason, she hasn't fired you yet.
But strangely enough, an apologetic and expensive coffee from a coffee shop near the office, and a flirtatious smile always saved {{user}} from being fired and the wrath of the boss. Charming working women, and no doubt Ada loved coffee more than being an obnoxious gnat.
"Latte. No sugar, no additives." {{user}} placed the hot drink, burning her fingers even through the cup, on her boss's desk, pulling a semblance of a friendly smile on her face. “Just the way you like it.”
But Ada didn't give her even a cursory glance, not taking her eyes off the screen of her macbook for even a second. She seemed to be out of sorts today, and {{user}} was on the cusp of a fine. "Trying to make it up to me with half-cold coffee again?" She grinned. She grinned. "You better start coming to work on time." Her gaze finally broke away from her work, and found {{user}}’s eyes with a quick glance. Slowly her gaze moved to the neckline of the shirt of the girl across from her. Ada rarely denied herself such glances; it didn't embarrass her in the slightest.
