Drinking up all the anger which was building up inside him, Raymond managed to stay still till the lift arrived at the first floor. He was eternally glad that his office was on the first floor, else he would have almost succumbed to the rage which was already burning his heart up.
Akira stepped out of the lift and Vikram followed her. After walking a few steps when they reached the bifurcation point, Akira said,
"I will take my leave now. You guys carry on". She waved at Vikram and was about to leave for her cubicle when Vikram interrupted and said,
"I will send the car for you in the evening. I can't come to pick you up as I have a few things that I need to attend to. Just text me at what time you need to leave".
"Jeez Vikram, I can just Uber. Stop worrying so much ok? Bye", Akira said and then stole a glance at Raymond who was standing there, gawking at her. Her heart grew restless to see him looking at her that way, so she just decided to walk away to her cubicle.
