159- He Needed To Be There For Her

On their way back to the hotel, they both were quiet in the car. They had reached the event venue in separate cars but now instead of going back to the office they were heading to their hotel in a single car. 

Nina invited Valerie to her room and ordered coffee for both of them.

"Ethan and Geena must be in the office," Valerie remarked after taking a seat at the coffee table.

Nina preferred to sit on her bed and placed the pillow on her lap, "Don't worry about them. They aren't kids and know their way back."

Valerie was tapping her foot on the floor, twirling a lock of hair around her index finger. Her eyes were darting around the room, looking everywhere except Nina.

Nina was observing her every action, "What is this nervousness about?" she took Valerie by surprise with the question.
