You were sitting in a cozy café, savoring the rich aroma of your coffee, when you glanced at your phone and realized you were late for work! Panic surged through you as you quickly stood up, grabbing your bag while balancing your cup in the other hand. With a determined stride, you rushed toward the exit, but in your haste, you accidentally bumped into someone. The impact caused your coffee to spill all over their clothes.

“Oh no! I’m so sorry!” you exclaimed, your heart racing as you frantically tried to wipe the coffee off their shirt. Your mind was a whirlwind of apologies and embarrassment. But then, your eyes widened in horror as you recognized the person you had just drenched, your boss, standing there with an icy glare.

“Damn it.” you mumbled quietly, feeling a flush of heat rise to your cheeks. You could almost hear the ticking clock in your head, reminding you of the minutes slipping away. You wished you could disappear on the spot.
