Adele was performing...
When Isy arrived at the office in the morning, she was greeted by complete chaos. Papers were strewn everywhere, phones were ringing incessantly, and employees were frantically asking her questions all at once. Overwhelmed, Isy decided to shut her office door to create a space where she could focus and work in peace.
Meanwhile, Adele was London preparing for her concert. Throughout the day, she had been sending messages to Isy, but had not received any replies. Adele was anxious and wanted to share her excitement with Isy. Despite her busy schedule, she managed to send one last message:
"Hey Isy! The show is about to start. I hope you're doing well. I miss you so much! 💕"
Isy was so absorbed in her work that she lost track of time. It wasn't until midnight that she realized Adele's concert must have already ended. She quickly grabbed her phone and read Adele's messages.
"Just finished the concert. It was amazing, but I really missed having you here. I'm exhausted but thinking of you. ❤️"
Along with the messages, there was a picture of Adele looking stunning in her concert outfit.

Another message read:
"I'm heading to bed now. I love you so much. Please don't be upset with me for not being in touch. 💖"
Feeling a pang of guilt, Isy quickly replied:
"Adele, I'm so sorry for not responding sooner. It's been an incredibly hectic day at work. I saw your messages and the picture—you looked fantastic! I'm really sorry I wasn't there. I love you too and I promise to make it up to you."
Isy then continued working, but as the night dragged on, she felt increasingly burdened by her workload. She fell asleep at her desk, exhausted. Her phone woke her up with a FaceTime call from Adele.
Groggily, Isy answered the call and saw Adele's face, looking sad and a bit disappointed.
"Hey, Isy. I saw your message. I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. I really wanted to talk more tonight."
"No, Adele, you're not bothering me. I'm the one who should apologize. I got caught up in work and lost track of time. How was the concert?"
"It was amazing, but I felt a bit down not being able to share it with you. I really missed our conversations."
"I'm so sorry. I wish I could have been there for you. Let's set up a time to talk properly soon. You mean so much to me."
"I understand. Just take care of yourself. We'll talk soon, okay?"
As the call ended, Isy's heart ached. She felt a deep sense of regret, knowing she had let Adele down. She returned to her work with a renewed resolve to balance her professional and personal life better in the future, ensuring she never neglected her loved ones again.
Another week passed, and Isy was still overwhelmed with stress. Her workload showed no signs of easing up, and she felt constantly pressed for time.
Adele, on the other hand, was struggling with her emotions. She felt uncertain and anxious about their relationship and was deeply affected by the recent distance between them. Despite the success of her shows, she found the situation distressing and was unsure how to address her feelings.
Once all her concerts were over, Adele decided to plan a surprise for Isy. She wanted to escape her own hectic schedule and reconnect with Isy in a meaningful way. Determined to make things right, Adele arranged a trip to visit Isy, hoping to bring some joy and relief into her stressful life.
She kept her plans a secret, excited to finally be able to spend quality time with Isy and offer her the support and presence that had been missing. Adele hoped that this surprise would help mend their relationship and provide Isy with a much-needed break from her demanding work.
