Serene quiver by his look. For a second she didn't know who that person in front of her was. She forgot what to say or do anymore. After five or ten seconds, she took a deep inhale and calmed and broke off herself from the rising tides inside her heart. She once again looked at Soham before turning away from him.
Bhumit tried to stop her before she went out of the office. "Serene-"
Serene once again pleasantly smiled at him like nothing happened. "You guys do assignments, I am going." She took her bag from the couch and went out without any more words.
"Serene!" Varun called from her back but she didn't turn or stop, just went away silently.
The office fell back to silence, like no one was there. Everyone in the room had a lot to say but fear didn't let them. When Bhumit couldn't keep up with his anger anymore he stood up in anger and left the office while saying. "Soham that was - loathsome."
