Diego and Kelvin arrived at the office. Some of the staffs walked up to them to ask after Nora.
"We heard what happened, is she okay?"
"Nora is fine. Thanks for your concern. Please get back to work." Kelvin told them and they nodded.
"Anyone seen Michael?"
"Not all all sire."
"okay. You can get back to work." He and Diego went into his office.
Diego got a seat infront of Kelvin as they both talked about everything that has happened and possible future occurences. "Do you think Michael would come back?" Diego asked.
"Not with all his pictures going around." Kelvin told him. He looked at him and remember his meeting with Sara. "Have you called Sara?"
"Sara?" Kelvin nodded. "I was going to do that later today. Is something wrong with her?"
"I had a meeting with her and it felt like she was hiding something. I am not close enough with her to start askimg her questions but I think you should check up on her."
"Oh! I will do that after work."
"Anyways, I will be going over to see Nora after work, I am also thinking of spending the night there that's if she will allow it."
"She is still mad at you"
"I know and that is why I am doing this." Kelvin answered.
"Ok then, do whatever you feel is right. I will take my leave now."
Diego stood up and left the office.

Sara was at work but she was absent minded. She couldn't get the words Nora said out of her head. "Sara," she heard someone call her name and when she looked up, it was her boss. "I heard the news about Sara, is she okay now?"
"Yes, she is."
"The poor girl must have been so devasted. I wish I hadn't pushed her out that day. Can you tell her I want to see her?"
"Now?"
"It's better I see her as soon as possible.
Sara nodded. She grabbed her phone and as she was about to call her, she remembered they weren't in good terms at the moment. It would be better I wait for her to calm down. I don't know if I will be able to take the insult again.
She dropped her phone and was concentrating on mixing the flour when Amelia rushed to meet her, scaring the hell out of Sara. The poor girl almost dropped the flour she was mixing. She gave Amelia a stern look and after that Amelia calmed down and aplogized.
"There is this cute guy out there looking for you."
"Cute guy? Looking for me?" Amelia nodded.
Sara stopped what she was doing and went to meet the guy. She was wondering who would come to see her. She got nearer to the person. The guy was reading what was on the menu and she didn't get to see his face but the part she could see made her believe the guy must be handsome like Amelia said.
She stood for a while, hoping he would raise his head and look at her but he was engrossed in what he was reading. In order to get his attention, she cleared her throat. As soon as the person raised her head, Sara froze.
"Hi Sara." The guy greeted with a bright smile on his face.
"A...Aus...Austin..."
"Can I buy twenty minutes of your time?" He gave her 10 bucks while gesturing for her to take her sit.
Sara struggled to sit but after she did, she couldn't stop staring at him.
"What are you doing here?" she asked. "You told me you don't ever want to see me anymore and here you are in front of me."
"I know I said all that but I just came here to apologize to you and to let you know that I never meant to break your heart. I was only interested in having fun with other girls and I pushed you aside. I know you don't love me anymore and I am probably not in your list of men you'd want tl date but I want you to know that I have never stopped loving, I was just too scared of staying committed."
"Why are you doing this? Why can't you all just leave for me good? Why do you all keep appearing? Why date in the first place when you know you are not ready to stay committed? Why?" she asked. "I loved you so much Austin that I left my city just to come over to you and what do I get in return? Heartbreak."
"I am sorry. I am not trying to ask you to come back to me but I am asking you to forgive me not just because I broke your heart but also for hurting your best friend." he got up from his seat and paid her more money. "I am sorry for taking more of your time. I know this means nothing to you but I will be leaving the city for good. You are the only one I am telling this." He was about to leave when he turned back and said, "I will advise you stay close to Nora now more than ever."
Sara was about to ask him wjat he meant but Austin left before she could even say a word.
"What does he mean by I need to stay close to Nora more than ever and how has he hurt Nora?" she asked herself.
She went into the bakery office and continued from where she stopped but her thoughts didn't let her concentrate on what she was doing.
She called one of the amateurs and explained to her what she needed to do with the flour. "Make sure to give it your best decoration. I will give your score when I see and just so you know, I am not lenienet with marks.
The girl nodded and took her position while she grabbed her and set off to meet Nora. She knew she and Nora had to talk and work things out. Austin was right about one thing though; she needs to be with Nora now more than ever. She wasn't ready to risk their friendship and she loves Nora too much to let her go that easily.
