Sudden Mayhem

There were many large office buildings in the area and people take lunch break around the same time of the day, so it was to be expected and I had nothing to complain about. Just getting to have a proper lunch with my colleagues already felt great. Although it started off as quite a big challenge, I think that the lunch ended decently well, and I was kind of glad to have lunch with Richard. Maybe I could get closer to him and learn more from him just as Ace had suggested when he staffed me on this project.

We were very close to the office when I felt my phone vibrating in the pocket of my suit. One look at the screen and I found out that the call was from Ace. My first thought was that the call might be about something urgent at work and that made me answer the call immediately.

“Ace?” I said his name questioningly.

“Where are you?” he asked, and his tone felt rushed.

“Umm…” I murmured.
