Here we stand or here we fall History won't care at all Make the bed, light the light Lady Mercy won't be home tonight
Erik had been arguing with his mother over text when Joseph buzzed him asking for a coffee. Black coffee, nothing in it. He stood from his desk and decided to make a call to his mother while he was away. He caught the eyes of more than one curious employee at him snapping into his phone. His mother was trying to encourage him to quit, come home and get married. He was going through the process of making his boss's coffee when she began her inquisition into his private life, the biggest question of hers was about him still seeing his ex. He'd told her it was over but unsurprisingly she though differently. He continued this back and forth with her his entire way to the break room and back. He sighed heavily into the phone as he approached Joseph's office. "Maman s’il te plait, reste en dehors de mes affaires," he snapped ",Je ne rentre pas, je ne quitte pas mon travail et je ne vais pas me marier. J’ai appelé pour vous dire d’arrêter de m’envoyer des SMS pendant que je suis au travail. Vous savez si vous étiez à moitié comme investi dans votre mariage comme vous étiez dans la vie personnelle de vos enfants peut-être que vous ne seriez pas une personne si misé rable!" He hung up on her before pocketing his cell phone. Why is matricide illegal again? He took a deep breath before walking into Joseph's office and setting the cup of coffee on his desk. "Black, nothing in it," he confirmed ",anything else?"
You don't waste no time at all Don't hear the bell but you answer the call It comes to you as to us all Yeah, we're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah
(Translation: Maman s’il te plait, reste en dehors de mes affaires - Mom please stay out of my business
Je ne rentre pas, je ne quitte pas mon travail et je ne vais pas me marier. J’ai appelé pour vous dire d’arrêter de m’envoyer des SMS pendant que je suis au travail. Vous savez si vous étiez à moitié comme investi dans votre mariage comme vous étiez dans la vie personnelle de vos enfants peut-être que vous ne seriez pas une personne si misé rable! - I'm not coming home, I'm not quitting my job and I'm not getting married. I called to tell you to stop texting me while I am at work. You know if you were half as invested into your marriage as you were in your children's personal life maybe you wouldn't be such a miserable person!)

Joseph figured that there would be little point in arguing with his secretary over this matter. While he did acknowledge that it wasn't a good thing for him to skip meals he also felt that time spent doing anything else was unproductive for him. Still though, at the very least Joseph wouldn't have to leave the office to get his food so there was at least that one positive for him at least. So while Erik was out getting the food the CEO would remain in his office hard at work, pausing to make a call to another one of his company's primary distributors "Yes, I am aware that it will cost extra to market in that city and area but I don't care what the cost is, make it happen!" just as Erik returned Joseph was just finishing up a heated debate with the person on the other line "Last time I checked, I'm the one paying you. Don't question me again or else I'll find someone to replace you. Goodbye" with that he hung up before the other person could get another word in. With that Joseph would sigh a little bit in frustration, even now you'd think that the people he worked with would have some faith in Joseph's decisions. The man never made a move without calculating every possible risk there was for his decisions and it would only serve to frustrate him when they questioned him. Thankfully the smell of food would distract him from any further thoughts of work as he offered a nod to his personal Secretary "Thank you Erik" he would quickly grab the bag of food placed at the edge of the table and motioned for the other man to sit down and eat with him. Might as well so they could discuss things more comfortably while the two of them ate their lunches. Joseph would proceed to take the contents out and and look up at Erik from his seat "So I believe it would be most beneficial if you would come to my home to start the lessons" he began as he quickly used his plastic fork and knife to cut off a piece of chicken "Stop by at around six or so, that way I have time to get my old learning material out and organized" he would then eat a bite for a moment before looking up at Erik "Also I'll be tending to dinner around an hour after you arriv so if you wish to join me then that would be fine" Joseph tended to eat dinner a bit later into day than some other people so it only stood to reason that he invite the other man to join him if he so desired. He remembered the couple times Helen and her family had joined him for dinner, it was the most he'd ever socialized with other people and even then it was a while since that happened "Besides that however I'd like to know what you remember and what Spanish if any that you do know, that way we can at least skip some sections of possible and keep things simple" the CEO remembered how Erik commented on being a terrible student which was why he was looking to keep things as easy for the other man as possible.
