CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

BY MONDAY morning, I drove towards Kelvin's house. He got into the car immediately he saw me, it looked like he had been waiting for a while. I tried not to make eye contact, and he remained silent throughout the ride.

I spoke out when I couldn't take the awkwardness any longer. "About the other night—"

"Forget it, you said you thought it wasn't me. As far as I'm concerned, it wasn't me and it never happened," he cut in.

"If that makes you feel better, we'll go with it." We were sweeping it under the rug, fine by me.

"Yea."

We got closer to the office and he got out of the car when I found a space to park.

"See you at lunch," he said and went towards the office building.

I groaned out in frustration and left the car walking behind him. We could just communicate like regular humans. I paused to wave at Dwayne and went into the elevator.
