Cubicle 357's Secret Desire

I had been deleting before hitting call all morning. Just before lunch time, I accidentally hit the call button and it began to ring. I hung up quickly, but a few moments later she called me.

I answered, trying to keep calm, and asked what she wanted. She asked me what I wanted, since I'd just called her. I scrunched up the short speech I'd written and tossed if over my shoulder while saying it was nothing.

I suddenly realised she'd sounded louder than usual on the phone just as she picked up the scrunched up paper and began reading.
