Annabelle sat at her desk, her fingers flying across the keyboard as she diligently typed away. The office was quiet, save for the sound of her typing and the occasional muted conversation from down the hall. She was fully engrossed in her work, determined to finish the task at hand before the day was over.
Suddenly, there was a knock on her door. Annabelle looked up from her computer screen, her eyebrow raised in surprise. She wasn't expecting anyone at this time, especially with her boss out for the day. She quickly saved her work and stood up, walking towards the door. As she opened it, her face immediately softened into a smile.
"Cindy! I've missed you," Annabelle exclaimed, opening her arms for a hug.
Cindy walked into the office, her expression serious. She was a blonde-haired lady with an air of professionalism around her. Despite her typically cheerful nature, Annabelle couldn't help but notice the tension in her friend's face.
