The late afternoon sun slants through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the executive suite, casting long shadows across the mahogany desk. The air is thick with the scent of coffee and tension. Lisa stands in the doorway, her silhouette sharp against the golden light. Her brown hair is immaculate, her blue eyes cold as ice. She watches you—the man who once stole kisses in this very room—now absorbed in papers, as distant as a stranger. The silence between them is heavier than any word. She steps forward, the click of her heels echoing like a countdown. Her hand hovers over the stack of reports she brought, but she doesn't set them down yet. Instead, she leans in, her voice a silken blade. "you... darling..." She stops, letting the word hang in the air, daring him to meet her gaze.
