The next day, after breakfast, the three decided to leave the mansion early for work. Eli has his breakfast meeting with his clients while Lilo has a domestic flight schedule by noon time. Driving towards the airport, Lilo glanced from time to time at Selah who is sitting beside him. She was amazingly looking outside the window of the car as if it's her first time passing by the road.

Most of the house stood two stories tall with mostly dark brown or white painted houses. With surrounding woods, the houses gave an instagram look.

As soon as they arrived the main gate of the subdivision, Lilo honk his horn and the gates automatically opened allowing them to left the place. He drove down the highway that was still lined up with tall acacia trees. Lilo continued driving until they reached again the flower shop they often visit lately.

"Good day sir!" the lady greeted her upon he opened his window.

"Happy Birthday!" he greeted and took small paper bag and handed it to the lady.
The lady was a bit shocked of his gestures and couldn't hide her happiness.

"Thank you sir, I thought you already forget about it. Thank you." She said.

"You're welcome. Have a great day." He finally said and bid goodbye.

As he continued driving his car, Eli opened a conversation at the back.

"You're still helping Amy's family until now, don't you?" he asked Lilo casually.

Lilo remained silent and continued driving. Based from his expression, it's totally obvious that he's trying to escape the conversation Eli started. Eli just remained calm on his seat and slightly smiled at him not answering his question.
It kind of annoyed him that he felt uncomfortable in his seat.

Upon arriving at the airline, they both have separated ways to take. Lilo went directly to his office same as Selah did. Eli went to the accounting department to prepare some presentation for his clients.

"Miss Selah, do you want anything for lunch? Sir Lilo asked me to accompany you today since he has a domestic flight to take." It was Leigh who visited her before lunch.

"Anything would do, Leigh. Just simple lunch will do." She replied while busy with checking some emails in her laptop.

"I'll come back after fifteen minutes ma'am." She finally said.

Selah just nodded at her and continued working.

Right after Leigh walked outside her office, Selah's phone rings. She immediately picked it up and answered the call.

"I asked Leigh to prepare a lunch for you. I have my afternoon flight today." He calmly said over the phone.

"Yeah, she just left before you called me. Thank you." She said.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

Selah was a bit surprised of his question.

"Yeah, I am. Why?" she replied.

"Nothing, I was just curious how your voice sounded today." He said.

"I was just slightly tired after a meeting today with our new client." She said.

"I see. I'll be back before five this afternoon. I'll pick you up. Wait for me." He said and hung up with the call.

Leigh and Selah had their lunch together in a restaurant nearby. They shared a small conversation while having their lunch but everything was about business and clients. Selah decided to divert their conversation.
