I forced a half-smile that probably looked more like a grimace. “Maybe a little.” He tilted his head. “So I was right?” I shook my head fast. “I mean, yeah, but not exactly. I’ve just been... busy. Really busy. I’m an hour late to work right now, so I’m literally avoiding everyone at the moment.” He chuckled. “Where do you work again?” I told him, adjusting my heel. He nodded like he was thinking about something. “Then let me give you a ride,” he offered.

" Hey I'm not a bad person so I'm gonna tell you that it's totally fine. What are you doing here by the way? " " I ah . . . I live here now, ken. And I'm actually late for work, if you don't mind? " " Oh sure. Um I really don't know when I'll be seeing you again since you mastered the art of soundless disappearance so would you be free tonight? " " Um not exactly, I leave work later and I get really tired afterwards. But I'm totally free tomorrow. I'm not on the shift. " " Cool, can I get your number? "

He picked up the magazine and acted oblivious of my presence. "You're not going to work dressed in that, are you?" He questioned, over the magazine casting a quick glance at me. I shook my head before responding, "I'm not going to the office today," I said, hoping I don't come off as lazy. It's been barely three months since I started working with the company.

“I shall not like to ask you after this time! Where are you coming from, Nova! Where?” “Work,” I replied, my word short and brief yet enough to cut through the air. Aaron’s brows pulled together gently and his grip subconsciously loosened around my arms. “Work?” he asked, and I took that little moment of distraction to pull away from his grip. “Work…. Yes….” A scoff slipped past Aaron’s lips, then he took a step closer, which I was sensible enough to replace. “You work now?” he asked with a bit of disbelief, and I shrugged my shoulders hesitantly before giving a reply.

I'm on break right now and haven't started my new job, so I don't really know about all that. "You're not working yet, Ms. Lowry? That's actually great." Leah chuckled. Zara asked, "What's great?"

"What do you do?” "I'm actually on a break from work right now," I said, smiling. "I work for a small company, just doing administrative tasks and whatnot." Daniel nodded, his eyes interested. "That sounds like a great way to keep busy," he said. "What's the company like?" I shrugged. "It's...fine, I guess. I mean, it's not like it's a big corporation or anything.

“I was also abducted, you know.” “Well, you aren’t hungry.” I shook my head lightly and went to the fridge to get a chilled mango juice. “So, how was work today?” Layla asked me as she dropped the bone on her plate. “Well, it went well, today. Just that I am booked for the weekends and may not be home until next mid-week.” “And why is that?” Layla asked, out of curiosity. “I have an official outing with my boss.” “Hmm… The CEO?” “Yeah.”

My boss or the ignorant jerk I am mad at." "The ignorant jerk..." he answered. But due to my intension of not talking to him, I said "Go away I am working!" "I meant your boss." he changed his answer. I took a deep breath "How can I help you Mr. Davis?" "First of all, it is very obvious that you are not working. And second, it is the holyday season. We are grownups. We can walk passed this." I closed my lap top and leaned in to tell him one thing about myself.
