Verdant Space

We’ve been at 92-A for some time now. Lawrence Road is always humming with noise and people moving about, so it’s never really quiet here. Verdant Space is tucked into a spot that most people just drive past unless they’re looking for it. The building has its quirks, like the door that sticks when it rains and the way the light hits the floor in the late afternoon. It’s not some polished office you’d see in a magazine. We have stacks of papers and boxes that seem to move around on their own. Most of us have been here long enough that we don’t notice the traffic outside anymore. We just get on with whatever needs doing that day. Sometimes the neighbor from the shop next door comes over to borrow a stapler or just to complain about the heat. It’s a very normal way to spend the day. We don’t have a big reception desk or fancy coffee machines. Usually, we just make a pot of tea in the back and sit around when there’s a break. The sign outside is getting a bit old but we haven’t gotten around to fixing it yet. It’s just how things are at this end of the road. We know the local delivery guys by name and they know where to leave stuff. It feels honest being here. Just a plain workspace on a busy street where we do what we do.
