Marcus looked forward to lunch at the office. it was a great time to hang out with his coworkers. Marcus worked at spirits soda company. the marketing division that is. their job was to get people to buy spirits soda. One of the perks here was the soda was discounted for employees.
the factory uses the purest water for the optimum taste. unfortunately, the virus flew under their radar in inspections. soon the spirits soda was filled with tainted liquids. he purchased a sandwich from the outdoor food truck and went to find a place to eat. he found himself hanging by Stephany and Ryan.
he found out a ways back that Ryan actually had a daughter going to his kid's school. he saw both of them had brought a fresh bottle of spirits soda. "...so any way Alan tries to get a picture in front of the lion when it roared at him. The man jumped like a rabbit. the camera fell and broke. thankfully we were able to get the pictures off of it," Stephany said as they ate.
"you are a lucky woman to get a great man like him. Me *huff* I wish my love life was that good. to find a beautiful vixen would be magical," Ryan said as he took another swing from his soda. later the 3 of them were in a meeting. they were talking about adding a cream soda variant to their name.
Suddenly Ryan looked awful. he excused himself to the restroom. Marcus was worried about his friend so he went and followed him. he soon saw him regurgitating his lunch into the toilet. "I think the sushi was bad," he said before he began to sweat. "dude you don't look so good" Marcus eyed his friend. he took a step back toward the door as he saw Ryan begin to change.
