Chapter 35: Did You Miss Me?

🅸🆂🅰🅱🅴🅻🅻🅰

The motion sensor activates and opens the big glass doors in front of me so I can step inside.

The first thing I notice when entering Green Vision is Luca at the reception desk. Her eyes widen when she sees me walk over to her.

"G-good morning Ms. Green."

"Hello sweetie, since when do you work the morning shift? Did Gary quit?"

"N-no, he had a mental breakdown so he got some paid vacation."

Her eyes wander down to my throat, looking for the strangulation marks.

"They have faded already."

Luca's face heats up. "I'm s-sorry, I didn't mean to-"

"Oh please, I can handle that much. Anyway, let's get back to work."

I smile at the girl and then walk over to the elevator.

I'm not surprised that my coworkers are shocked to see me. A lot has happened in the past month.
