Pity for a fool?

In the CEO’s office, Frank walked in without any ceremonial announcements or politeness. He sat down crossing his legs at the sofa waiting for Ben to finish what he was doing.

Ben put down the document he was reviewing and walked over “You didn’t bring lunch?”

“What?? I am your personal butler as well now?” Frank retorted impolitely. He was annoyed that he had to come over leaving his afternoon appointments out to dry and now this fella wants lunch!!

“Shadow, lunch. Frank’s here.” Ben spoke into this phone.

“Have you reserved a spot?” He went straight to the topic.

“Sarah’s organized it! She usually goes to this every quarter, so it wasn’t difficult.”

Shadow walked in with the lunch boxes in a few minutes.

“That was quick” Frank looked impressed.

“I was already at the café” Shadow scratched his head.

“Yours?” Ben quizzed noting that there were only 2 boxes.

“I won’t be joining” Shadow disappeared as quickly as he appeared. Why would he want to get indigestion? Didn’t he know the mood
