"I can't bring myself to get someone's attention whom I wouldn't be able to know if I trust or not," Jack reasoned. He sighed. "That means that I'll just have to go to the other annex and get either Quincy or Jasmine's attention." Jack thought about possibly getting the receptionist's attention, because she wasn't all that bad, but he knew that it would be 50/50 in how she would respond. After all, Jack and Lily either had really nice interactions or rather uncomfortable and annoying interactions. If she found him that small, who knows how she would take his motives. With that in mind, Jack committed to going and finding one of his friends. Sadly, they were in the other annex, which typically wasn't an inconvenient walk to make, but of course he was a heck of a lot smaller than what he normally was. At his height, any misunderstanding or outright accident could cause Jack extreme trouble. As he walked out from his desk and evaluted the path to the other annex, Jack elected to remain close to the desks near his before bolting quickly to the break room once he made it close enough. That, he thought, was his safest option.
The tiny real estate agent made it through the desks without issue. The cover was exactly what he was hoping for. When he got to the break room, however, things got dicey. Jack rushed into the narrow roomand immediately hid under one of the counters. There were a few employees in there at the time, one including his least favorite coworker, Vanessa. The other two that were there, Jack didn't recognize. "They must work in HR," Jack thought. That was the one department of the office that Jack never interacted with, which was probably a good thing. That indicated he went incident-free and was a productive worker. The two employees, presumably from HR, included a middle-aged man in a suit and tie and a woman, looking in about her mid-thirties, also dressed in a suit. Jack couldn't entirely see the man's face, so he wasn't entirely sure as to how he looked, but the thirty-some woman had dirty blonde hair, squared glasses, and red lipstick. She was certainly well-dressed for her role, wearing a similar suit to the man, but with a short skirt and no tie. After observing these two, and taking into consideration Vanessa's presence, Jack took a deep breath and booked it for the door to the other annex. To do so, he had to give himself up to the open and hope for the best. Jack, gratefully, made it past Vanessa no problem. He was seriously close to the door and his best chance at getting back to normal when a large foot thudded in front of him. A black heel blocked his path and Jack stumbled backwards. He looked up in fright to see the woman was standing up.
