Hailey simply nodded with a hum.Right now, Iris had left her own desk and was now sitting casually at Hailey’s. This had been the kind of relationship they had, and since Hailey had apologized earlier, everything had gone back to how it used to be.“He was a complete nutcase,” Hailey scoffed, and Iris let out an amused chuckle. As far as she had known Hailey, standing up against someone had never happened. Hailey was the type that would rather stay on her own and swallow up whatever rubbish she was given.“I don't have the strength to fight back,” she had told Iris during college days.But now, sitting before Iris was a completely different person.“What did you do to my friend?” Iris gasped as she placed her hands on her chest, a dramatic way of expressing herself.Hailey laughed.Just then Carter walked up to them; as usual,
The next morning came by faster than Hailey could have imagined; she worked and barely slept. Each time she does, she sees herself going back to the time she was murdered. When she eventually woke up, she was drenched in sweat and was breathing heavily. Reluctantly, she dragged herself out of bed, got ready for work, and tried her best to shake everything off. ~~~~ By midday, the chatter from the office was starting to die down as everyone was preparing to go out for lunch. Iris had been giving Hailey some weird looks all morning but had never gone to approach her, not even when the situation pushed her to. Carter walked past Iris’s desk; they both exchanged subtle greetings before he finally stopped at Hailey's desk. “Hey babe,” Carter greeted as he leaned down and placed a kiss on her forehead. Hailey only responded with a smile as she turned to face him properly. Iris's head snapped up a little; her eyes were fixed on her system, but her ears were listening close
Mira extends her hand for a handshake, much to Hailey’s surprise, Hailey takes her stretched hands. Mira’s hands felt a little bit cold against Hailey's palm, this startled Hailey for a brief moment as she looked up at Mira with a confused expression.“That’s how my temperature usually is,” Mira quickly chipped in with a small smile. Upon seeing the confusion on her face, Hailey gave Mira a simple nod, still wondering why she felt so cold.Upon seeing how lost Hailey looked, she decided to break the awkward silence that was threatening to creep in. “Are you here all by yourself?” she asked, now taking back her hands.“Or are you here for a date?” Mira asked with a smirk.Hailey had to bite the inside of her cheek to stop herself from laughing, she let out a smile—a genuine one instead .“I won’t call it a date though.” Hailey responded.“I’m sorry for taking so much of your time already,” Mira apologized with a pout, placing her hands dramatically on her chest.Hailey shook her head
Hailey sank into the passenger seat, shutting the door a little too firmly. The sound echoed through the quiet car before Dan started the engine. For a few seconds, she said nothing, her eyes were fixed on the glass reflection of the building outside. Dan glanced sideways. “Are you okay?” he asked. She forced a small smile while tugging at her seatbelt. “Yeah. I'm just a little bit drained.” He gave a slow nod. “Lovers’ quarrel?” Dan asked with a slightly teasing tone. Her head snapped toward him. “That’s not…” She stopped herself mid-sentence, taking a slow breath. “nothing of that sort.” Dan smirked faintly, an amusing smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “If you say so,” he shrugged casually. Hailey looked away, jaw tightening. She wasn’t upset about Carter seeing her with Dan, not really, but then she needed Carter if anything. Dan noticed the shift in her silence and chuckled quietly. “You always get that face when you’re thinking too hard.” “I’m not think
As soon as Trevor left the room, the atmosphere shifted, like everyone could finally breathe again. Hailey was packing up her notepad when Iris’s soft laugh reached her ears. “Well,” Iris said with a honeyed tone, “looks like someone’s about to have a very busy few weeks.” Hailey looked up sl
Iris blinked as she watched her leave, her smile faltering once again. There was something in Hailey’s eyes, a quiet awareness that made her chest tighten with unease. Hailey leaned against the wall just outside the conference room, her arms folded loosely as she watched people walk in one by one.
Iris laughed awkwardly, her fingers curling tightly around her drink. “Carter was just telling me some things that happened to him recently,” she said, forcing a soft laugh that didn’t quite hide the tension that was already there. “ Relax…I was only pulling your leg,” Hailey murmured with an eye
By the time Hailey arrived at the office, the place was screaming activities on a Tuesday morning with cameras rolling from every side of the company, not to mention the distant smell of burnt coffee.
