บท 49: Irreversible Damage

George and Cynthia fell into their old habits. It was just like having orange juice the other day, the place they chose for their lunch had history.

They took the back exit and used an external elevator that was only available for the top administrative floor, so they didn't have to run into anyone at Evans-soft... Not Dimitri who was waiting in the reception area, nor George's parents who were waiting at Robert's office while Gloria calmed down.

Craving Italian food that comforted both of them on bad days years ago, Cynthia and George headed to Filomena Ristorante. It was mostly a quiet ride in George's car, both of them were enjoying the comfortable silence. But that was when Cynthia noticed her phone vibrating.

Dimitri, 7 missed calls.

"Oh, no…" she said, she quickly pressed the call button. Dimitri picked up before it even rang.

"I was thinking about you, really… I was about to call you when I felt my phone vibrating," she said.
