Waiting and Hiding

Many memos posted later.

"27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32..." Mrs Faversham counted as she continued to post memos. The postbox makuing a Ka-chunk noise with each one posted.

How much does she have to SEND?!! I'm going to have to dig down through all of those memos now to find my envelope!

I stood still behind my cover and looked down at my sleeve still trapped in the internal post hole. I went to adjust my messy hair again but my arm caught in my sleeve. I repositioned my arm and pulled it from the sleeve and out of my shirt, adjusting my hair as best I could.

I've got nothing but time, I might as well make myself presentable.

Without my arm to support and fill the trapped, right sleeve the shirt slumped around my waist, supported only by my hips and my left arm still in its sleeve. My lower half completely exposed still.

A: But of course! One must always look one's best... Even when one's peepee is on full show!!

D: Stop calling it his "peepee" It's his cock and balls, just say cock and balls.

*Ka-chunk Ka-chunk Ka-chunk Ka-chunk*

"..98, 99, 100. There! All done! The last of the 4-page internal memo booklet with new rules for saving paper."

Finally!

A: A 4-page memo about saving paper? What a great idea!

D: Really?! And what about emails?

A: Emails? What's that?

I heard the high-heeled steps of Mrs Faversham head back towards the exit, the door open and then close behind her. Immediately I went to investigate the mailbox as it continued to make it's Ka-chunk sound.

Why is it still making that Ka-chunk noise after she's gone?

Wait a second!

This isn't a mailbox!

OMG! It's a chute to the floor below!

D: "Oh no..."

A: Wait a sec' you knew about this all along?

D: Well duh. The postroom is where you post your mail. The sorting office is one floor down.

A: You're kidding me!!

*Ka-chunk Ka-chunk Ka-chunk Ka-chunk Ka-chunk* The mail inside the chute continued to disappear to the floor below, one piece of mail at a time.

Holy shit!! I could lose it again!!

A: OMFG!! ... And before you ask it actually means "Oh my flaming goodness!"

D: Of course it does my little cherub.
