Just when we thought that we had seen the end of the drama, another twist to the plot comes up. Sylvia made her way to this stall and made a bee line for Jay's space where he was busy balancing the books.
"Why are you not answering my calls anymore?"
"Will you take another court order to force me?"
We all restrained ourselves from laughing
We could have laughed were it not for the cold and the oddity of the place. Jay could be as sarcastic but funny as well.
"How will you know about the progress of your child?"
Jay gave a loud but oddly sounding laughter. It was the first time in 2018 where we heard him laugh.
"Now it is my child? I told you I don't want anything to do with that thing you claim to be my son. Aren't you happy that you will be getting 30 grands from me?"
"That thing is your son. Like it or not."
Since our offices were that close, we could eavesdrop effortlessly. Even the salon girls close by stopped their activities to listen to the shouting match.
"Look, get out of here and go do something productive instead of scheming to extort money from men. You lazy woman."
She has threatened to shut us down
"And why can't you stop spreading your seeds if you cannot take care of the offspring?"Ouch! That was awful. Tom winced in pain as if he was the one who was being insulted. I could see Felix, the technician struggle to contain his laughter. Jay clicked loudly and slapped the offending Sylvia so hard that she gave out a large scream.
We all rushed to Jay's defence by shielding him from Sylvia's wild punches. Eventually, the women stepped in and pulled her away as she went on a tirade, screaming insults at Jay and the rest of us.
"You scream the way you want. But you will die of AIDS you loose woman. You can't sleep around and get pregnant and force it on me."
That was how Monday ended. It is Wednesday and we are all in a tense mood. Sylvia has threatened to close down the shop and even have all of us arrested. Will she do it?
