The two had been following her for a long while, clearly growing impatient.
Ruby Gregory took a sip of her hot drink, and seeing Maya Mitchell staring out the window, asked aloud, "Maya, what are you looking at?"
After saying this, Ruby Gregory looked through the window, not finding anything special in sight.
Maya Mitchell pulled her gaze back, lowered her head, and took a bite of her cake before shaking her head at Ruby Gregory and saying, "Nothing."
After a pause, Maya Mitchell changed the subject: "By the way, Ruby, why didn't I see you at the company yesterday afternoon?"
"Yesterday?" Ruby Gregory thought for a moment and honesty replied, "Yesterday at noon, Steve Burton asked me to accompany him to a business lunch, and in the afternoon, he played cards with some friends."
Again Steve Burton... Maya Mitchell's eyes dimmed a bit, she quietly lowered her head, took a sip of her coffee, and mumbled an unintelligible "hmm".
