"Don't worry.." I say, getting up off the chair and walking around him on my way out, my scarf running through his fingers lightly until it s...

I'm very religious about time keeping, i hate being late, and like to respect people's time and vice versa, however, i will be arriving late at the office again today.
Not extremely late, or as late as last time, but late all the same....and i don't have a good excuse, except that no matter how much time Raquel and i spend together, it never seems to be enough, and i always want more.
After last night, and the incident with her parents, i think it drew us a little closer than before, but it also left a lot of things left unsaid, with not enough time to address some things.
We didn't finish the conversation about what happened at the hospital...about her meeting Nicole. As much as i want to separate my past from my present, there are parts of my past that have the capacity to affect my present and if my relationship with Raquel is to be true and meaningful, i will need to address that personally first.
I have not spoken to Nicole in a long time and declined the efforts for dialogue that she attempted several times in the past, until she gave up altogether.
But maybe this time, i will be the one to go to her, so that once and for all, i can put an ambiguous situation to rest.
It's the very least that Raquel deserves, honesty and transparency, then we will take it from there.

Arriving at the Office, I am met with inquisitive stares...everyone is not used to seeing me late, because up until now, i have always managed to separate my personal activities from my professional responsibilities, but lately that has changed, and the reason is not a secret either, but merely a confirmation of the rumors that am seeing someone, the woman who already made an appearance here.
Focus.
Shoving all thoughts of the deity that has completely captured my mind and soul to the back of my mind, i remind myself to be focus on the work that is waiting for my attention today.
After an hour of being in my office, and setting my day in motion, my attention is drawn to link sent to my email and just like that, everything quickly takes a turn that changes the course of my plans once again.
Ashton comes crushing into my office shortly after, uninvited and causing the door to swing back and hit the door stop with a bang in his excitement.
"Have you seen it?" He all but shouts the words as soon as he sees me.
"I'm looking at it." I reply, looking away from my laptop.
Before he even has a chance to say another word, Nick walks into the office along with Marco, whistling and clapping.
I lean back in my chair, grinning like a Cheshire cat.
I honestly didn't want to make this a big deal, but that is clearly not up to me alone.
