The Last Laugh

Chapter 21

***

We reached the last floor without me saying another word to Heather. We left the elevator and I followed up behind her until, immediately we left the building, there was this guy in a black suit Leaning on a black Lamborghini, waiting for someone.

I watched Heather walk up to him and hug him.

"Hey." she said.

"Hey. No kiss for your boyfriend?"

'Boyfriend??'

"Kevin, please." she said slowly, getting out of his grip and getting into his car. He shrugged and got in himself before driving off.

So Heather had a boyfriend? Okay.

I crossed the street to the pizza hut.

After good lunch with Aiden and some other colleagues, we all returned to the office.

On my way down the hallway, I met Sawyer. I stood in her way.

"Hey."

She looked at me.

"Yeah?"

"Is Heather dating?"

She raised a brow and folded her arms.

"Why?"

"There's this friend of mine that's quite her fan. He'd like to know if she's single."

"Hahahaha, oh. Since you work with her, he thinks he can have a chance?"

"Yeah."

"Smile. And I'll give you an answer."

I looked at her.

"Seriously?"

"Yes."

Fine. I smiled.

"Nice smile. You just gave me goosebumps." she laughed.
