"Michael."

She pulled her hand from Jacob's grip and ran to Michael and hugged him as Jacob stood and watched.

"What are you doing here?" She asked as she pulled away from the hug.

"I missed you a lot." He replied. "I realised that i did a mistake when I left so I came back to you."

A few minutes later, Michael walked into her office. "Ready to go?" He asked.

She nodded and grabbed her coat and bag. She left her office, hand in hand with Michael whilst Jacob looked at them. As they neared the exit, Connie turned around and looked at Jacob! She missed him. She felt lost...
