She snapped , Well , enjoy your peace and quiet .
And with that , Everly stormed off in a huff .
Reeses smile disappeared in a Mash .
She headed to her designated spot and started cleaning , humming a little tune as she worked .
The other colleagues exchanged confused glances .

Reese flashed a devilish grin .
Whod actually enjoy that fancy meal was still up for grabs .
After the bet was set , Reese got down to cleaning her desk with meticulous care .
She was a bit of a neat freak and demanded perfection in everything she strutted over .
With her brown hair and fierce eyebrows , she had a very mean look .
Just as she settled in , Susan Foster strut She dumped a hefty stack of documents onto Reeses desk .

While she was waiting in line , someone cut in front of her , showing her aside .
She didnt want to stir up trouble , but she also wasnt a pushover .
She walked up and tapped the guy on the shoulder .
Hey , no cutting in line .
