Being Nosy
Or, getting suspicious
Big Dave is up to something.
Big Dave is my main co-worker. He’s a big chap, and he’s called Dave. And he’s pretty open about stuff. Just lately, though, he’s definitely been up to something.
He asked if I could cover for him and stay late yesterday, so he could leave early. “If I leave when you normally do,” he said, “I can get to the gym an hour earlier. It would be nice to have a change.” Not having any plans myself, I agreed.
Back in this morning. “How was the gym last night, then?”
“Didn’t actually go to the gym,” he says. “Had something else to do.”
“Oh yes?”
“Mmm. I was busy.”
So, something’s definitely going on. It sounds like Big Dave’s got a date.
