Melody took a deep breath and kicked off the presentation. She spoke about all the various aspects of the proposal including details about the project's goals, objectives, budget, timeline, resources, method, and more, but Morgan was as quiet as a mouse, just staring down at the document in his hands.
What's with the eerie silence? Melody was used to his angry outbursts, but his sudden calmness was just creepy. It's terrible!
And then it happened when she was leaning in over the table, pointing out some charts in the document in his hands, when... well, something happened.
"Their schedule for the attainment of the first stage is a bit..." Melody paused in the middle of the sentence, her breath caught a little as she felt his fingers lightly touch hers. She was taken aback, because in all their two years of working for Morgan, he had never once laid a finger on her. It can't be on purpose!
