A Conversation

"I cant come to work today, ma'am. I'm sorry"
"Oh, shut up, you're going. You don't want to get fired today, do you?"
"What? You can't fire me, not over that!"
"I can, and I will. Come to work today or say goodbye to your job"

There was a pause. Nobody spoke for a minute.

"You know what, fine. Fire me. I don't care anymore. I don't want to do this anymore. I've stopped trying, anyways."

And then he hung up, tired of this, tired of this all.
