"I can't believe that guy, it's his fault that I am going so late to work and yet he could not even check on me" she murmured as she climbed down the stairs.

She was out of the house with the speed of light and she saw Kieran standing there with his hands up as he frowned at his watch. He leaned on his car and looked up and their eyes locked.

"I thought you were not going to make it to work today" he said opening his door and entering inside.

She stood there wondering what he was doing there. He always left the house earlier so why was he still around at this time? Was he waiting for her?

"Aren't you going to work?" he asked rolling down his window.

She caught herself from staring and gaping at him and ran down the final stairs to overcome. She ran and sat in the front passenger seat of the car.

"I thought you had left already," she said as she struggled to put on her seatbelt.

"I was waiting for you," he said silently.
