True Love Waits

All of a sudden, the door to Evelyn's office was pushed open and a familiar dandiacal man stepped in shortly after.

She shut her eyes and shook her head, then squinted to get a better look. She assumed that the long hours of work was causing her to hallucinate because she was staring at someone who had been gone for many days now.

With her elbows propped on the desk and her hands rubbing her temples, she tried to relieve the fatigue.

"Let me do it!" The man's gentle voice rang in her ears.

Evelyn could no longer tell whether this was dream or reality when she heard Sheffield's voice.

He put the bag in his hand on her desk and gently pressed her temples with his index fingers.

The fact that he had studied Chinese medicine before was undeniable in the way he had succeeded in calming and relaxing Evelyn's state of unease.

It wasn't until much later when Evelyn finally came to her senses and realized that he wasn't just a figment of her imagination. Instead of opening her eyes, however, she leaned her head back and softly called out his name. "Sheffield..."

All the while, Sheffield's absence had led her to believe that perhaps he did not want to see her again out of anger and resentment.

"I'm here," he said.

Evelyn's heart skipped a beat when she heard his voice again. Moreover, judging by the tone of his voice, Sheffield didn't seem angry at all.

A few minutes later, she grabbed one of his hands and said, "I'm fine now."
