Normal Conversation

I have just finished a successful work phone call at 10 pm. In which I cajoled, begged, verbally genuflected, and eventually got my way. I hang up. I pause.

"YES!"

Roommate, who had been trying to sleep, rolls over. "Hmmm."

"You're a little scared of my cutthroat business tactics, aren't you?"

"Honestly, I'm always a little scared of that."
