Leaving the college principal, Logan Willams' office at the school, I bumped into him.
Logan had called me over specifically.
According to school policy, he said I could work there if I wanted.
Logan warmly advised me to consider it at home and escorted me to the door.
At the entrance, I saw Daniel.
"What are you doing here?"
He bypassed me and greeted Logan directly.
"Hello, Mr. Willams."
"Daniel, if I remember correctly, you two are a couple. When you go back, help your wife consider the job offer."
He nodded and followed Logan into the office.
I bid Logan goodbye politely and slipped away from his gaze.
Unexpectedly, Daniel suddenly called out to me.
"Wait for me; we'll go back together."
I was stunned.
For me, not seeing him for a week felt like ages had passed.
Yet, he remained the same, his tone unchanged.
Though his words sounded caring, they felt chilling.
"Okay," I agreed.
Not wanting to embarrass him in front of Logan and needing to discuss the divorce, I waited for him in the office.
After half an hour, tired of waiting, I told him I'd take a cab back.
Little did I expect a sudden downpour outside.
As I hesitated at the door about going back, Daniel and Logan approached.
