"Who's that?"

"Yn, can I borrow your laptop for my presentation?" Toshi asks walking toward you, the pin with his presentation in hand.

"Yeah, sure." You hand it to him. He thanks you and walk toward the big screen on the wall in the conference room to connect it. He opens your laptop and the screen shows a picture of you and Jonas, which was your background picture. You're looking down at your notebook, preparing a page to take notes beside Suyin, so you don't notice the screen yet.

"Who's that?" Dj then asks out of curiosity. You lift your head and follow his line of sight to see the huge screen filled with you and Jonas. Mac looks at the screen too now, his eyebrows raise seeing his old friend and he turns to you as everyone else does too.

"Uh, that's Jonas." You answer and turn your attention down to your notebook again, drawing doodles to look busy.

"Boyfriend?" Wall asks you.

"No." You just answer.

They all frown and look back at the photo, seeing the way he looks at you and then at the way you glance up at the picture longingly.

"Ex?" Dj then asks.

"No." You answer, hoping they'll take the hint and move on.

They frown again at your sudden change of demeanour, usually being very open and talkative about your life. You never really answer with just one word, and you look sad talking about him now.

"Okay, let's start Toshi." Mac says, the others turn to him and he gives them a look, they take the hint and Toshi starts his presentation. You give Mac a thankful look and he gives you a sympathetic smile back.

The presentation starts and when it's finished Toshi just takes out his pin and leaves in a hurry with Wall to work on something. Eventually you're left in the conference room with only Mac and Heller. And the huge screen is filled with your picture again. Heller looks at it one more time, huffing angrily, then leaves. You shoot daggers with your eyes at Hellers back as he leaves the conference room. As he walks past you to get back to what he was working on before the meeting, Mac gives you a squeeze on the shoulder in sympathy.

You go to retrieve your laptop, but as you stop by it you look up at the screen, and at the two of you. You miss him. Would he ever get out of that hole he buried himself in, you wonder and hope. Why wouldn't he let you help, you felt like a failure as a friend. Should you call him, you think right now. Those were the thoughts running through your head. You decide on writing him another letter, about the latest news and pranks you did on the team members.
