“Louie,” said Philippe in a stage whisper. “Do you think the boss has overdone it on this order?”
Louie looked down the table at all the buns they had made. “Don’t rightly know. Haven’t given it too much thought since we started. The deadline is approaching quickly,” he said with a glance at the clock.
Philippe smiled. “We are getting paid either way.” He thought for a minute. “I’m just wondering why he wants all these,” he said waving his arm at the table after he put the latest bun down, “in his office by five.”
“Why do you care?”
“I’m just curious. Is he having some sort of party there at five?”
“Maybe he is just hungry.”
Philippe looked incredulous before laughing. “Could be. He looks like he could.”
At five pm the buns were covering every inch of the bosses office.
“Thanks boys,” the boss said as he handed them an extra 50. “For being on time,” he said with a touch of joy as he closed his door.
“Time to start Arnold,” he said to his bulldog. “Tuck in.”
Arnold sniffed happily.
Arnold is one happy bulldog. Hehe.
I imagine that Arnold will eat the majority of the buns.
