Prudence soon saw another man pop out of the same cubicle as the other one, which somewhat embarrassed. It was like she'd just made a scene and...oh, boy. Why did it seem like everyone would start popping out of their offices to stare and whisper and makes comments and giggle and go "Wow. Newbie!!" at her? No, no! Don't think like that...think calm. This was her first day, and there was no need to freak out.
"Okay, that sounds great!" she said, wondering if this may be her boss...or something. Alright! It seemed like everything was going well. She'd be introduced to everything and soon, she'd be able to pick out her cubicle, get an assignment and all of that good stuff. Okay. Calm...And with that, Prudence stood up straight and began walking confidently and...THUD.
"Oww..." she said in a muffled voice, immediately after her face met with the carpeted ground. She sighed heavily, and lay there for a few seconds before attempting to pull herself back up.
"Are you alright?" Blackstone asked as he helped Prudence up. "Episky" he muttered, which healed the bruise on her forehead. Being closest to the door it was the polite thing to do. Feeling a bit more confidant knowing that there were others more confused than him, he spoke up again "If you want, we're sort of brainstorming right now. I'd ask Iain if we are still needing suggestions. He's the division head."
Blackstone turned in his chair "As a matter of fact, Iain, do we need any more questions for the questionnaire? Or are we finishing that up?"
