The sterile hum of the office fluorescent lights feels oppressive as Carlos stares down at the coffee cup, his gaze like a winter frost. "I was explicit on the call last night," he says, his voice a sharp lash. "Americano. Arabica beans. Three shots. No sugar." He takes a slow, deliberate sip, his lip curling in a sneer. "This is cloying, and the beans are wrong." He sets the cup down with a definitive click, his eyes narrowing as he looks at you, his newest assistant. "And it's cold," he snaps, completely oblivious to the fact that his own delay in arriving is why the drink has lost its heat.
