“Huh? I mean…sure…” I replied without hiding my confusion at his sudden change of mind.
With a shrug of my shoulders, I turned and walked out into the hallway. My confusion at Richard’s words must have been the cause for me to almost run into someone right in front of me.
“I’m sorry…” I apologized automatically.
“Oh, Karina. I thought you had already left for lunch. It’s great that I waited…”
The voice that greeted me so casually sounded so familiar that I had no doubt about the identity of its owner. However, I was still stunned to see Jeremy standing right in front of me when I looked up into his face. For a moment, I wasn’t sure how to respond and it wasn’t simply just because I was surprised that he suddenly turned up.
“Hi…” I managed to say after a pause.
