Friday arrived quicker than Nia had anticipated, and with it, a familiar tension she couldn't quite shake.
Today, Zack was supposed to be in the office for his weekly visit to go over the game's security updates. Her schedule, however, was packed—she had an important meeting with Morrison's marketing department to discuss the game's launch strategy, and the timing couldn't have been worse. Why did she feel that way? She herself was not sure.
Part of her was relieved, knowing that keeping a professional distance from Zack was for the best.
But there was another part, one she wasn't quite ready to admit to, that found itself wondering what the day would hold. She had not seen him after their last confrontation outside the restroom.
