Stop. The visual image is too sexy. I’m getting turned on.

Hot Handyman

Then I shouldn’t mention I’ve got the hat to match the shoes to wear later?

Silver

Now you’re just teasing me.

Hot Handyman

I’d never joke about your pleasure, Sunshine.

Well. Now I actuallyama little flustered.

I’ve been in the building basement, doing laundry, for an hour now, and not a single person has come in here. Logically, I know I could go back upstairs, wait out the cycle, and come back down, but I just…I don’t want to be in there right now. After the phone call came in, I needed to put some distance between myself and the place where my good day collapsed, at least for now.

Silver

What are you doing?

Hot Handyman

Snaking a drain in 9F.

Silver

I know another drain you could snake.

Hot Handyman

Are you trying to give me a semi next to sweet old Mrs. Reinbeck?

Silver

I don’t kink shame.

Hot Handyman

You’re insane.

Silver

Do you have a full day?

Hot Handyman

This is my last scheduled work order. I’ll just hang around until my shift is up.

Silver

Or…

Hot Handyman

Why does that ‘or’ make me nervous?
