Author: Anneke-chan Kenshin hung up the call he just finished with and looked at the clock. It was almost quitting time. If he didn't get another call before then. went the phone. Kenshin sighed and wondered when he let his life and reactions be directed by the ringing of a phone. He had contemplated before how he was chained to his desk, the headset to the phone was a leash if ever he saw one. The phone flashed, as another customer wanted help for their problems. Did saving the world and making up for his sin really have to include doing tech. support? "Hello, how may I help you, degozama?" Kenshin put a perky sound to his voice, this would be the last call of the day after all. Elsewhere in the office... Hiko had left right after lunch. He muttered something about being salaried was truly the life, before leaving in his sports car, with the cute nurse Megumi. Saitou was not in a very happy mood, it would seem while he had been on his cigarette break someone or more then one someone had decided to cover his cubical with post it notes. He was going to kill who ever did it, once he found out who it was. Misao was trying to contain her giggles, as she watched Saitou fight with the post-it notes. His biggest enemy yet. Kaoru had stopped by to watch as well, and began to giggle to. She was trying to avoid the lobby, none of the big guys with swords had been helped today and soon she would have to tell them to go home and come back the next day. She only hoped her tires were not slashed when she got to the parking lot. Soujirou had been happily content to play with his happy meal toy. It was something called a 'furby'. Kenshin was being frustrated by the call he was still on. Being the last call of the day made it even worse. 'Hiko isn't here, I could hang up, no one would ever know.' But Kenshin couldn't do that, could he. 'My finger could slip. I mean no one can be this dumb.' Aoshi was looking at his phone that was flashing and ringing at him. Misao walked over to him. "It's been doing that for hours." Aoshi explained. Misao picked up the receiver and the noise stopped. "Your suppose to pick it up." She handed the receiver to Aoshi and went back to watch Saitou and the post-it notes again. Aoshi looked at the received in his hand and put it back down on the phone. The phone rang again, so Aoshi picked up the receiver, waited a moment and hung up again. "This is an easy job." he stated. Misao never said anything about actually listening to the phone. Kenshin was banging his head against the desk, still on the same call. Kaoru had tired of watching Saitou rip the post-it notes up. She did have to giggle as Soujirou exclaimed, "It's snowing". While having his furby playing in the 'snow'. "Excuse me, but we are closing now, you will all have to go home." Kaoru told the big guys with swords in the lobby. "I've been waiting all day." complained one of them. "I'm sorry you will just have to come back tomorrow." Kaoru then shoved them all out of the building. Yahiko appeared to see the mass of men and weapons shoved out the small door. He was going to leave when Kaoru stopped him. "Where are you going?" she asked. "Home, day's over." he stated. "Not until you clean the lobby." She stated. Yahiko sighed and looked around. The lobby had blood smears and holes in the walls. Seemed some of those people waiting got a little bored, and decided to entertain themselves. The elevator type music playing in the lobby really could drive you to it. Kaoru went back to the main room where all the desks were. She saw a surprising site, Sano was actually on the phone talking to someone. She walked closer to listen in. "Okay, now what do I do?" he asked. He had a hand over his mouth trying to contain giggles. "I don't know where the any key is." Sano stated. Kaoru then looked across the floor to where Kenshin was on a call looking very upset. It all came into light very quickly and Sano looked at Kaoru and they both burst into full laughter. Kenshin heard the laughter over the phone and then stood up and saw the noise was also coming from in the room. He sank back down into his chair with a slight, "Oroooo." That's when the clock struck the hour. Soujirou was the first out of the building, no one saw him leave actually, as fast as he was running. Next was Saitou, with Kenshin close behind, he was slowed down because he had stopped to pick up Kaoru and carry her with him. "Do it again tomorrow?" asked Misao from the back of Aoshi's motorcycle. "Sure." waved Kaoru from the mini-van she drove, Kenshin sitting in the passenger seat, Yahiko in the back. They most likely still had to go by day care to pick up the kid(s). Sano made his way to the bus stop. While Saitou got on an old fashion bicycle heading to his second job as a night time security guard. Both jobs didn't pay to well, and never enough to keep up with his smoking. So they all went on their way home... Mean while back at the office, someone laughed in the dim light of an office. "Any day now, any day now, you'll learn the true horror of Jinchu." The End-For real this time. vampireanneke@yahoomail.com
