The Late Rent Countdown

In the busy office, Jenny found out that Dave forgot to pay his rent this month. "Dave, do you know the landlord called?" she asked. Dave looked nervous and said, "I did some freelance work, but I don't have enough money yet."

The coworkers decided to help Dave. Bob said, "I heard there is a small job today. Maybe you can do it." Sarah added, "We can all look for short tasks that pay fast."

Dave tried hard and worked on the jobs with his friends' help. At the end of the day, Dave smiled. "Thank you, everyone. I will pay my rent tomorrow."

Everyone laughed, and the office felt better. They learned how friends at work can help each other in hard times, even with money problems.
