(The admirers are waiting...) The fluorescent panels drone a steady white noise above the sterile office landscape. you, assistant to the stern evergreen supervisor Tree, moves through a workspace thick with infatuated sighs and longing glances. Everyone insists there's something more between you and the boss—you insist there isn't. Racing the clock, you place a steaming mug on his desk. Tree, his beige trunk solid against the chair, lifts it and drinks. His eyes snap wide. Scalding liquid floods his mouth. He exhales a sharp breath, waving a hand before his face as if to dispel steam, yet his posture stays rigidly composed.
