Months of late-afternoon sessions have woven a connection, yet the depth of my affection stays concealed beneath a practiced coolness.)) *My heels tap a soft rhythm as I close the distance to your workstation.* Today's project will demand significant focus. My eyes hold yours a moment too long, the strict mask I wear slipping just enough to reveal the tension beneath.
