Here you are at work. It's just a common desk job. There was nothing special about it really. Well, maybe you got to stretch your legs a bit more then other people in jobs like this. You did just get done carrying some boxes up here from a different office. Now you're extremely worn out because the boxes, as boxes in a workplace tended to be, were extremely heavy. You didn't exactly understand doing such manual labor but hey, you couldn't really protest either.
Thankfully, the place was full of nice enough people Speaking of which, and luckily enough, one of the newer, younger co-workers of yours, Nina, comes bearing you a drink. How thoughtful. If anything things had a way of picking up fast after downers like that.
"Here you are." Nina said as she handed you the drink. "You seamed thirsty so I thought I'd bring you this" She says quite cheerfully. Well then. She was quite chipper about bringing you some water. Oh well. Once again, desk jobs weren't all too special so you made due with what you could.
"Thanks." You said back and gulped down the nice drink. Although, despite her constant generosity around the office, you found it kind off weird that Nina was being nice to you. It was weird. Ever since she had started this job her attitude tended to shift a bit. You've seen her bouts of anger more often then others around here have. All of them have been rather petty things not worth getting worked up about too. Still, she usually calmed down and got back to that chipper attitude rather quickly. Maybe something wonderful crossed her mind each and every one of those times or something.
Far be it from you to judge someone who was making the best of this situation. Besides you actually found her attitude refreshing and real. No corporate bull crap and the like to hide behind it. It truly was refreshing though it did taste different. Maybe it was from the water cooler? She never did trust that stuff.
An hour or two later though, you start to remember why you never trusted that stuff. You start to feel the need for a bathroom. Oh great. What a time too. You were almost done with this stupid paper. Just as you stand up to go, Nina comes back over to your cubicle.
"Hey! How are you doing?" She asks with a bright smile.
"Oh. Hi. Do you need anything?" You ask, trying make this conversation quick.
"Oh, I was just checking on you. I mean, you did look tired after carrying all those boxes." If you weren't so preoccupied with squirming and looking around her you would have noticed that when she said that, there had been a bit of an evil gleam in her eye.
"I'm doing fine. Thanks for worrying." That line sounded weird to you but you didn't care about your manner of speech at the moment. "Now if that's all-" You start again but she cuts you off.
"Oh, and another thing, I'm really sorry about the way I treated you earlier." Earlier? Which earlier? She had snapped at you quite a few times before this. You may not have hated her for it but it was truly something that did bother you so apologizes were graciously acceptable. Yet, she kept talking. "I mean I was so rude and..."
She droned on. You got it. She was sorry. She just kept going though! It was at this point that you were so distracted by your "needs" that you decided to tell her that she needed to move this along a bit, without being rude of course.
"Listen. I kind off need to use the bathroom. Think this could wait" You say this as you are now visibly squirming.
"Oh. Go ahead." Her voice was very stilted and cool. That would have bothered you if it weren't for the fact that you really needed to get going now! You get up and start to go...but then you get the surprise of your life when you're actually tripped by Nina as you try passing her to leave!
Things moved in slow motion in your head for a bit. You knew what the impact on the ground was going to do to you and you didn't think it real for it to happen here at the workplace. However, your mind went into a panic as you landed and realized it was going to happen! Things changed so fast and dramatically that your mind could have gotten whiplash from it.
You broke right there on the spot. The urge was stronger then you thought. Your pants was about to become a bathroom due to an involuntary case of...
