Ava glided into the office, the crisp lines of her navy-blue pantsuit perfectly accentuating her professionalism. With a smile that typically lit up the room, she greeted her colleagues, yet today, her cheerful hello was met with an eerie silence.Undeterred, she settled into her tasks, completely engrossed in her work. Her dedication was unmatched, her attention so absorbed that she failed to notice the myriad of eyes following her every move. Some gazed with admiration at her efficiency, while others harbored curiosity, puzzled by the unusual aura around her.Midday arrived swiftly, and as Ava finally allowed herself a moment's reprieve, her phone jolted to life, breaking the silence of her solitary lunch. Bryan's urgent voice pierced through the receiver, requesting her immediate presence in his office.A knot of apprehension tightened in her stomach as Ava navigated the maze of cubicles toward Bryan's quarters.

" What the... " He cursed under his breath and turned to Ava " Are you okay? "Ava managed to smile " Yeah I'm good, what just happened? "Bryan explained how the car in front started to slow down. He sighed and started to drive again. The little incident erased what he intended to do before it happened. " Bet you're over 20 " Bryan commented in a bid to start a fresh conversation. She smiled " I'm 22 " She replied casually." Hmm you're a woman " He murmured, his tone suggestive and Ava blushed furiously. She clearly understood what he meant but pushed no further. Soon they reached her apartment and Bryan parked the car and turned off the engine. " Home sweet home, " he remarked, breaking the quiet that had enveloped them." Thank you for the ride, Bryan, " Ava expressed her gratitude, a flicker of warmth coursing through her." It was my pleasure, " he replied, stepping out to open the door for her once more. He leaned against his car and shoved his hands in his pockets while he

The third day had dawned with an air of tension lingering in Jayden's apartment. Anxious hours had passed since Cassandra's inexplicable absence, and when she finally walked through the door, relief and frustration battled within him.Jayden sat perched on the edge of the couch, his demeanor a mix of agitation and concern. As Cassandra entered, her eyes met his, registering the storm brewing within him." Where were you? " Jayden's voice, tinged with a blend of anger and relief, echoed in the room.Cassandra paused, sensing the weight of his emotions. Her gaze softened as she met his eyes, an apologetic look clouding her features. " Jay, I'm sorry, " she began, her voice laced with regret. " I stayed over at a friend's place. Lost track of time. "His expression darkened with skepticism. " That doesn't explain why your phone was unreachable for two days " he countered, his tone firm.Cassandra's eyes darted away momentarily, a flicker of unease passing across her face. " I... I must h

Jayden had hoped that a date might be the stepping stone toward rebuilding their fractured relationship. He approached Cassandra with the suggestion, hoping for a fresh start, but her response caught him off guard." How about going out tonight? Just the two of us, " Jayden proposed, a glimmer of optimism in his voice.Cassandra hesitated, a cloud of uncertainty crossing her features. " I don't know, Jay, " she replied, her voice laced with hesitance." Why not? " Jayden frowned, puzzled by her sudden reluctance. " You were the one who suggested it in the first place. "She muttered something almost inaudible, her words cloaked in indecision." Cass, please, " Jayden pressed gently, his expression a mix of concern and frustration.

" I'm just not sure if now is the right time, " she finally murmured, her voice tinged with uncertainty." Is there something you aren't telling me? " H

" Wh... What did you just say?? " He asked weakly. " You heard me well Jayden, I fell out of love a long time ago " She said, glaring at him. " You... " He couldn't find the right words to describe how he felt that moment. She placed her hands on her hips and waited for him to speak." How could you do this after all I've done for you b*tch? " He asked quietly, anger evident in his voice. Cass rolled her eyes " If I may ask, what did you do for me? "" You... You ungrateful b*tch! " Suddenly, he raised his voice and started to call her all sorts of names " I've always known you were a slut and a betrayer! "She laughed scornfully " You dare to call me a betrayer?? "Jayden stared at her in pure disgust " Isn't that what you are?! You betrayed your friend to date me, you slut! "" And you cheated on your girlfriend to sleep with me! " She fired back and added " Isn't that the case here? You left her because I give you good sex, am I wrong? " She smiled wickedly. Jayden shook his
