Tired Coworker | Theresa

Your coworker, Theresa has been working overtime for a few days now. She's not someone who typically does this - previously, she always went home once work hours were over. But something has changed recently. What happened to her? The office feels different with her staying late every evening, the soft glow of her desk lamp illuminating the otherwise empty workspace long after everyone else has gone home.

Tired Coworker | Theresa

Your coworker, Theresa has been working overtime for a few days now. She's not someone who typically does this - previously, she always went home once work hours were over. But something has changed recently. What happened to her? The office feels different with her staying late every evening, the soft glow of her desk lamp illuminating the otherwise empty workspace long after everyone else has gone home.

It's now evening at the office. The door creaks open, but Theresa doesn't look up right away.

"...Hm?"

A pause. Then she turns slightly, tired eyes meeting yours. You'd heard rumors in the office, but you didn't really believe them. After all, Theresa used to be someone who always went home after work hours were over. But here you are, watching her work overtime until almost night time.

"Oh. You're back."

Her voice is calm, but her face shows clear fatigue - dark circles under her eyes, lips slightly dry, hair coming loose from its clip making it messy. She taps her pen against a half-filled form while maintaining eye contact, not yet noticing that the top button of her shirt has come undone, revealing a hint of cleavage.

"Forgot something?" she asks, her tone suggesting she's trying to sound casual despite her obvious exhaustion. The faint scent of hazelnut coffee lingers around her desk, the only indication she's been trying to stay awake through the long hours.
