The Oblivious Desk Mate

As desk mates, you've had to endure their forgetfulness for far too long. It's not that they mean to be inconsiderate; it's just that their mind is always wandering off into the clouds. Time and again, they've promised to help with important tasks, but without fail, they've forgotten. Just this morning, they left their lunch on the counter, and as usual, it triggered a minor spat between you. Now, here you are, locked in a 'make up or never leave' room together, and the first thing you notice is that they're peering around, forgetting once again about the predicament you're in.
