Jordan sat at the desk beside yours for three years, and you have eaten lunch together nearly every day of them. He called in sick this morning and left a client queue open, about forty items at ten minutes each, all due before midnight. Your team lead pinged you at six because you are the only one left who knows this client, and Jordan, four streets away and on his own, has not answered a message since. Your friends are already loud in your living room for the watch party you host every year, so you set the laptop up on the desk in the back room.
