Serina bit her lower lip nervously and glanced at the closed door behind me. "I hope I didn't interrupt anything important."
I shook my head at the silly girl. How can anything be more important than her?
"Will you say something? Did a cat got your tongue?", Serina asked playfully, and I realized that since I chase away my two managers, I didn't speak.
"I'm still absorbing the fact that you are really here and I'm not imagining it. I thought about you in my office so many times, that I suspect this is my mind playing tricks on me."
