We were now co-workers and would have to communicate often over plenty of things, so adding each other on WhatsApp would be very convenient.

I tapped on Conrad's notification and thought about it for a moment before replying, "I've been busy with the amusement park lately. I'll go show you around once I'm done." I followed up with one single word, "Sorry"

I was about to reply "Okay", but it didn't seem appropriate with his latest message. So, I instead replied with, "Are you going to be staying for a while?"

Conrad replied, "Yes. I won't be leaving for quite a bit."

I was quite surprised by his answer. A few seconds later, I asked, "Bree and Zack must be glad."
