They had only exchanged texts since his departure, and the distance between them felt like an eternity.Mabel approached her, a knowing glint in her eye, and sat down with her meal. "One phone call is all you need to do to hear his voice," Mabel teased, her voice laced with amusement. "What are you talking about?" she asked, her voice laced with denial. "Exactly what you heard. You miss him," she said, her eyes locked on Sofia's.Her eyes dropped, and she took a sip of her juice, her face a picture of sadness. "I don't," she muttered, her voice barely audible. "Keep telling yourself that," she said, her eyes sparkling with amusement, as she continued eating.Her gaze drifted off, her eyes fixed on a spot, her mind consumed by thoughts of Shawn.A week flew by, and Shawn still hadn't ret
Shawn was busy in his office, his eyes fixed on the documents in front of him, when his PA entered with some files. "Here is the file you requested for," he said, placing it on the table in front of Shawn. "What time is my next meeting?"His PA replied, "By 2 pm, sir." "Okay, you can go," he said, and the PA left.Not too long after, someone knocked on the door, and Shawn asked the person to enter without looking up to see who it was. "Hey, Shawn," Rachel called, and Shawn raised his face up to her, his eyes widening in surprise. "What are you doing here?" he asked, his voice cautious. "Please, just listen to me, I mean no harm," she said, her eyes locked on Shawn's. "Then why are you here?" he asked, his eyes narrowing.

Shawn was busy in his office, his eyes fixed on the documents in front of him, when someone barged into the office. The intruder's face was scowling, his eyes blazing with annoyance."You fool!

"You are unbelievable," he said, his voice laced with amusement.The intruder's face fell, but he quickly regained his composure. He moved to sit down facing Shawn, a smirk playing on his lips. "Aren't you happy to see me?" he asked, his eyes glinting with mischief.Shawn's face was neutral. "What are you doing here, Troy?" he asked, his voice firm. "What? Aren't you happy to see your own best friend you haven't seen for the past two years?" he asked, his voice laced with mock hurt. "Why will I be? Is not as if you have anything meaningful

Shawn and Sofia were cuddled in each other's arms on the bed, sleeping peacefully. Sofia's eyes fluttered open, and she tossed over to Shawn, who was still fast asleep.
