522 Red like a cherry

Time passed and Zoey worked like usual. She attended all meetings she had for the day while leaving Cora in Melanie's care to brief her of the light jobs she could do.

When lunch came, Cora decided to take a breath of fresh air on the building's rooftop. Since Zoey was busy and she didn't want to disturb her, Cora went on her own.

Upon reaching the rooftop, Cora walked towards the railings and leaned her arms against it.

"Such nice weather!" She muttered after taking a long inhale and exhale. The smile on her lips sported on her face as she recalled Zoey's words from earlier today.

"Zoey…" Cora whispered as her smile grew gentle at the thought of her friend.

Everyone mistreated or bullied Cora. She didn't blame anyone for that as Cora knew it was her fault for being picked on and being a pushover.
