He always understood why he had to leave, but he never had a choice in the matter. Nathanael was beat and whipped into shape, literally, scars crisscrossed his back some red some almost a brownish pale color. None had been properly cleaned or patched up.
" Lance! Bring me the contract of that girl. Now!"
" Yes Sir, right up. That girl she was pretty, ah here it is sir! "
"Thank you Lance that will be all."
"Then I will take my leave sir call me when you are ready to go home. Good day."
For Nathanael's sake of mind he looked through her papers, now knowing she truly was the girl he had left behind. As though he thought about her late last night, only because he missed her. He kept thinking about how he is now a monster ruthless, cruel, and hurt. What would she think he left just like thin air. He didn't sleep well but he didn't show it.
"Excuse me, no one else is here they all left for lunch. Would you like some? Or do you want to be stuck in an all window office?"
"Reese, I sure would like to get lunch with you. Oh shit! I am so sorry, did that creep you out. Oh god what am I saying that obviously creeped you out."
"How do you know my na- never mind I see you have my paperwork. Lets just go and get lunch."
Nathanael never felt as embarrassed as he just felt but at least paper work had his back this time.
