I sat behind my sleek desk, completely emersed in the work I was doing on my laptop. My fingers moved swiftly as I directed my secretary about an upcoming meeting, my mind was wrapped around the work I was doing. The television in my office was on a medium volume and I could hear what was being said. The reporter was giving news on government-related stuff and honestly, none of that was my business.

My eyes darted to the TV immediately I heard Daniel's name. He was going about his philanthropist behavior again and I scoffed

“Yeah so that's all for today also, arrange a meeting with Mr. Alfredo,” I said and she nodded before leaving the office.

Once my secretary left, the mention of Daniel lingered in my mind. Although I pretended not to be interested, his name stirred the emotions I'd been hiding with work. During our last meeting yesterday, how I left him outside and how much it hurt came rushing down on me. I suddenly felt my hands shaking willingly.
