By the time I arrived in front of my apartment building, the sun was absent and the sky had darkened, clouds gathering with the promise of a downpour.
Switching off the engine, I rolled my shoulder and turned to Nadia, who had a bottle of milk in her hand and was sipping from a straw.
"I see you like it."
Scrunching her face, my prideful secretary looked away but mumbled a yes.
"Good."
Before going home, I had decided to take my Nadia to lunch and stuff her belly. Of course, she was against the idea, but unfortunately for her, I was the boss.
"You'll be going to school tomorrow, right?"
"Yes."
"Good. I've been in contact with Sade over the past weeks. She's been quite willing to help mitigate the damage from your absence. I told her you were on a business trip."
"Oh. I didn't expect that."
Nadia went silent for seconds, pondering her next words before speaking.
"I can't say much since there is no precedent, but Sade seems to find you quite favorable."
