I stared off into space and didn’t answer her. As a result, she decided to end the conversation there and walk away to continue working.

Nora called me right after I’d finished packing up my belongings in the office, inviting me to eat dinner with her tonight.

I had yet to answer her when I realized that Armond was standing at my door, gazing at me. Thinking that he was here for business matters, I quickly told Nora, “Give me a minute!” before turning around and asking him, “Have you gotten off work already, Mr. Murphy?”

“I haven’t decided yet. What would you like to eat?” I replied instinctively.

“Anything. Work hours are over. Let’s go.”

“You can head on down first. I’ll come as soon as I get my things sorted out.”
