The Gossipy Receptionist

2b. Insistent Sister

Your ex-boss storms off. 

“I’m so sorry,” says the receptionist (but she looks happy at all the drama.)

“It’s that Layla’s fault. Even after I showed her your insta she insisted she was your sister. She says she’ll be back at 4, by the way – when you finish work. I guess you’ll be…err…finishing earlier now.”

You grunt something and go to clear your desk.  You don’t  care who Layla is… all you know is you’re unemployed. And you need a drink.

Fortunately, they serve the best Bloody-Marys in town right across the street.
