Chapter 14: Chapter 14

Kathy

"I should really get back to work," I said, picking up my coffee mug. "Break's over."

Back at my desk, I couldn't help but sneak glances at Dylan's door. The woman was still inside his office.

"What are they even talking about?" I wondered out loud. All this time, I thought I would be okay with Dylan being nothing more than my boss but now, I was having second thoughts.

It was absurd that I got irrationally jealous about some woman coming in to see him. Dylan and I hadn't exchanged more than a few words with each other since I had started working here and all our conversations had been strictly professional.

"He doesn't owe you anything," I told myself, and tried to get my mind off him.

When the day was over, I was packing up at my desk when Kevin made another appearance.

"You must be tired," he remarked, as he helped me pack some of my things.

"I think I'm just ready for this day to end," I sighed.
