Almost everyone had left for home and here Marissa was talking to a crying Mala.
"You need to get a grip, sweet girl. This job is yours. Stop fretting about it," Mala nodded and wiped her nose.
She was still shaken from the announcement, Rafael Sinclair made earlier.
After lots of counseling from Dean and Marissa, she felt enough strength to manage herself to go home. After sending her, Marissa started packing her things. She placed her laptop in the desk drawer and locked it.
While aligning her files on the desk, she felt Dean's eyes on her.
"Am I looking beautiful?" she fluttered her eyes making him chuckle.
"You are funny. You are sensible and you care for others…" Marissa seemed shocked by all that praise coming from him, "And yet…" he trailed off thinking hard.
"And yet?" she asked him lightly.
