Today, she tasked me to go to her office to help sort out some data and files. It's kinda crazy the number of files I had to sort out. Before long, it was 5.50pm. She came over and gave concern over what I was doing. After clarifying some doubts, she went up to the lab to do some stuff.
6pm came. She did not come down.
6.05pm came. She did not come down.
6.10pm came. She did not come down.
6.15pm came. She did not come down.
6.20pm came. She was still not down yet!
However, I started packing up and putting the files back in order, as I had to return my friend's laptop to her, since I didn't bring my own today. Moreover, my access card could only work till 6.30pm, so if I continued staying, I may get stuck outside the lab and not be able to reach my bag.
When I went up, I placed the laptop down (my friend left already) and immediately went into the GC room where she was sitting to tell her that I already came up to return the laptop to my friend. I started talking before she spoke and did not stop until I finished my story. She gave me the perplexed face and calmly said in chinese, "Actually, I already SMSed you to tell you that you can leave." I was stunned for a moment, gave a shy laugh and replied, "Oh, I left my handphone in the lab to charge...." And awkwardly left the room, while she said "Thanks" behind me.
Super embarrassing and I felt super guilty as well that my friend had to leave her laptop in lab because of me....
I stayed till 6.30pm for nothing.... -.-"
