The following morning, Sophia awoke with a sense of determination she hadn’t felt in a long time. The whirlwind of emotions from her encounter with Alexander lingered in her mind, but she was resolute about taking control of her own life. She couldn’t keep letting Alexander’s mixed signals dictate her emotions. If he wasn’t going to make up his mind, then she would make up hers.She decided to get an early start on her day, hoping the routine would keep her grounded. After getting ready, she sent a quick message to Mia, asking if they could meet for lunch. She needed her friend’s perspective, someone who could help her make sense of her thoughts. Mia responded almost immediately with a resounding “Yes!” and suggested their usual café near Sophia’s workplace.The hours at work dragged by as Sophia tried to stay focused, though her thoughts kept wandering back to Alexander and the way he’d looked at her the night before. Her heart still fluttered at the memory, but she forced herself to

The next morning, Sophia woke up feeling a mix of relief and uncertainty. Her conversation with Alexander had gone better than expected, but she knew that keeping things strictly professional would be a test of her strength. She just wanted peace, a chance to rebuild her focus at work without distractions.As she got ready for the day, she repeated a mantra in her head: Focus on yourself. Focus on what you need. She wanted to be clear in her mind, determined to keep any feelings for Alexander in check. She had already been through enough confusion and didn’t want to go down that road again.When Sophia arrived at the office, she greeted her colleagues with a bright smile, trying to start the day on a positive note. She wanted to prove to herself that she could carry on as if nothing had happened, that her life didn’t have to revolve around Alexander.Her new colleague, Liam, waved as she walked by his desk. He had quickly become a friendly face at work, and Sophia appreciated his easy

Sophia closed the door behind Alexander, her heart racing. She hadn’t expected him to show up at her apartment, and she wasn’t sure how to feel about it. She led him to the living room, gesturing for him to sit on the couch while she sat across from him in a chair.“So,” she said, breaking the silence, “why are you really here, Alexander?”Alexander leaned forward, his elbows resting on his knees. His expression was serious, and there was a softness in his eyes that Sophia hadn’t seen before.“I told you, I wanted to check on you,” he said. “But there’s more to it than that.”Sophia crossed her arms, waiting for him to continue.“I’ve been thinking a lot about what you said—about keeping things professional,” Alexander began. “And I understand why you feel that way. I haven’t made it easy for you, and for that, I’m sorry.”Sophia raised an eyebrow, surprised by his apology. “I appreciate that, but I’ve moved on. I just want to focus on work and my own life.”“I know,” Alexander said q

The following morning, Sophia woke up to a heaviness in her chest. The events of the previous night replayed in her mind like a movie she couldn’t shut off. Alexander’s confession, the kiss, and the way he’d looked at her—so full of emotion—had left her more conflicted than ever.She sat on the edge of her bed, running her hands through her hair. Part of her wanted to call Mia and unload everything. But another part—the part that had been hurt too many times—told her to keep this to herself.After showering and dressing, Sophia made her way to the office. She hoped to bury herself in work and avoid Alexander altogether. Maybe if she stayed busy enough, the turmoil inside her would settle.But as soon as she walked in, she felt his presence. He was standing by the coffee machine, his usual confident aura replaced by a quiet intensity. Their eyes met briefly, and Sophia quickly looked away, her heart racing.Liam waved her over as she walked to her desk, his cheerful smile a welcome dis

Sophia's hands shook as she stared at the photo on Mia's phone. The caption was bold and glaring, making her heart pound in her chest. She couldn’t believe someone had been watching her and Alexander. How had things spiraled out of control so quickly?Mia’s face was pale as she sat across from Sophia in the break room. “Soph, this isn’t good. What are you going to do?”Sophia pressed her lips together, trying to hold back tears. She knew this was bad really bad. Her career was at stake, and the gossip spreading around the office made her stomach churn.“I don’t know,” she said finally, her voice trembling. “I didn’t think anyone would find out. We weren’t even doing anything wrong.”Mia gave her a look. “You were seen going into his apartment late at night. People don’t need details; they’ll make up their own story.”Sophia nodded, feeling a lump form in her throat. “I just wanted to talk to him, Mia. That’s all. But now it looks like…” She trailed off, unable to say the words.“It lo
