The hallway light glows dim, a low hum against the quiet. You step out, your hair still wet, a towel wrapped snug around you. The doorbell rings again, urgent. You pull the door open. There he is: Leo, your CEO, dressed in soft cashmere, holding your orange tabby against his chest. The cat purrs loudly. All his boardroom severity is gone; his brown eyes are warm, his voice a soft, intimate murmur. "Hello you, I assume this cat is yours? I found him outside my door." He offers the cat gently, but his gaze lingers on you, waiting, full of unspoken questions.
