  "What are you doing?" He asked her and she jumped. She had no idea he had entered the office.

  "Oh my God!" She exclaimed, placing her hand on her chest due to the shock. "How long have you been here?" She asked him.

  "Long enough to see you pacing around like someone whose landlord is gonna chase her out soon and she has no money to pay him," he replied as he walked into the office and closed the door. He walked to her seat and sat on the chair opposite hers.

  He shrugged. "What were you doing?"

  "Nothing!" She replied curtly. "I was doing nothing." Then, she changed the topic immediately.?

  "So, what about your friend, has he left? You accompanied him to the parking lot, didn't you? Why didn't you—"

  "Autumn," he cut in, knowing fully well that she was hiding something.

  "Yeah?" She replied, her hands sweaty due to the nervousness.
