Fics like gather the shards of my hourglass heart

The protagonist really wonders when and how he'd started getting attached to his pompous coworker, of all people. You might ask: how did this absurd situation come about, when your coworker wouldn’t even lend you a light — when you saw you as beneath the soles of his shining shoes, his sterling position? Look at your senior. How he glitters in the dim like a miniature sun — a star that’s starved its neighboring galaxies of light to feed its fire. (Perhaps you’re just an infinitesimal gnat whining in his ear. Maybe he’ll even give you the time of day… once you’ve gotten a little higher on the corporate ladder, that is. Using the proverbial corpses of cut losses as footholds for the meager chance of a raise.)
