Blake held onto Kevin’s arm. The two of them walked intimately hand in hand to the underground parking lot. Blake asked, “Where are you
going today? When will you be back? Can you pick me up after I finish work tonight?”
Kevin replied, “It depends. I’m not usually this free.”
Blake was unhappy. “Kevin Harrison, you’re not working in the
company anymore. What are you busy with every day? You promised
yesterday to give us a try. Why can’t you prioritize me? Or you can tell
me what you’re busy with!”.
Kevin’s current plans involved shady and nefarious deeds, so there
was no way he could tell Blake about them.
Zach was still in a coma, and Kevin was not really sure what he

him near his mouth. “Call me when you’re done with your stuff.
Whether you come to look for me, or I go and look for you, I’m okay
with both.”
Kevin was left stunned by her kiss.
After unbuckling her seatbelt, Blake held herself and ran to the
company’s entrance against the wind. She managed to clock in on

He slowly spoke in a husky, low voice, “Can you… not be with him?
Whatever he does for you, I can do too. Can you be with me instead?”
