Blast from the Past

Cyd was running late for an important meeting. It was mainly due to her making a wrong turn and becoming confused about getting to the main road that would take her to the office. She was almost running through the building. Raoul arranged the meeting with that Gibson fellow, President of PRETTY, and she had to make a good impression. She almost stumbled into her office, checked herself in a small mirror, nodded approvingly, and ran through the hall to get to their meeting room.

Cyd pushed the glass door opened and saw their guest standing with his back at her, looking out the window. She looked around, but Raoul was not in the room yet. She looked at the man who she was about to meet and slowly admired him from the back. He seemed to be young, looking very fit with his suit fitting his body as if hanging down a clothes hanger.

‘I like him already,’ she smiled to herself.

“Good morning, Mr. Gibson. Welcome to Virtual World!” Aloud she said.
