Soft light fell on the desks as the morning sun touched the office windows. Anabelle was typing rapidly while seated in her corner. She made an effort to remain composed but her heart was racing. Despite being exhausted from working late every night this week she felt a different vibe today. Her phone rang. Jude had sent her a message. Her hands trembled a little as she read it twice. “What could it be?”She muttered to herself Clara, her friend, bent over the desk. “You seemed alarmed.” “Jude just sent me a text. He wants to see me.” Anabelle told her Clara smiled back. “Perhaps it's a good thing” she remarked. “Hopefully so. My heart is pounding too quickly” Anabelle said. “Calm down Anna. You've put in a lot of effort. He might want to express his gratitude for the project.”
