"Hello. It's me, " Leena answered in a low voice and didn't say Kevin's name out loud because she was in front of Dorothy. She didn't want Dorothy to know it was Kevin's call.
"I know it's you. I am wondering if you are free now?" Kevin felt amused at her words. How could he not know whom he was calling?
"Yeah, I am free. What's up?" Leena got a bit nervous all of a sudden. She was worried that he might want to discuss with her again, the thing that he brought up the other night.
"Right. I forgot to bring one of the documents. I'm sure I left it on your desk. Do you think you can bring it to me?" It was not some secret file, just his daily report that was important for the meeting this afternoon, Leena could save him a lot of time and effort if she could bring it to him. This way, he wouldn't have to drive home himself..
"Yeah, of course. Give me your location and I'll bring it to you. See you later." Leena stood up after these words. But then she sat down again as if she suddenly thought of something.
"Miss Lu, I'm sorry. I have to go now. I have something urgent to do. You can stay here and finish your coffee. It's all on me, as an apology." Leena smiled a bit apologetically at her. Secretly, she let out a sigh of relief. She was glad that Kevin called her now, because she really wanted to leave but she couldn't find a good excuse to do so. It was so awkward sitting in front of a person she didn't really like and having small talk with the said person. The call was really a life-saver.
"That's all right. Just do your be nice to go home with her husband, like what normal couples would do.
"It's still a few hours till I get off work, silly girl. I don't want you to waste your time just sitting around, waiting for me here." Kevin gently pinched her face. She was really cute sometimes. But Kevin didn't take her words too seriously. He thought that she was just joking. If she decided to actually stay until he got off work, she would have to wait for hours before they could leave.
"I won't mind it at all. I really want to." Leena stared at Kevin with eager eyes, hoping that he would see how much she wanted to wait for him. She didn't have anything else to do for the rest of the day anyway. It would be better than just staying around the house. Their home felt empty without him.
"Are you serious?" Kevin couldn't do anything about it, because Leena seemed to have already made up her mind. He just shook his head helplessly at Leena and silently agreed. Well, if this was what she really wanted, who was he to deny her this little wish?
