Illustration for Two in the Morning, from the adult visual novel The Clerk's Window

At two she is on the floor of my office with her back against the filing cabinet and I am sitting on the edge of the desk and neither of us is doing anything official.

TamsinIf I ask you to send the drawer, will you?

HalvardNo.

TamsinAsk me why I am not angry about that.

HalvardWhy are you not angry about that?

TamsinBecause if you would send it for me, you would send mine for somebody else. I want to be safe because you are careful, not because you like me.
