***

Being back to work felt good. Not because I couldn’t wait to type and print a shitload of papers for Leonel, but because… Well, the reason was my enemy and I should never forget about it. Still, I couldn’t wait to see him again.

I could hear the voices coming from behind the closed door to his office. He was having a meeting and judging by his schedule, he wouldn’t see me for another forty minutes or so.

I had plenty of time to make a cup of coffee and prepare myself for a new week at work. If at the beginning of my trial period I thought working for Leonel would never be good, now I had a different opinion about it. Despite all the cons of being his assistant, I also started to learn the things I would need for my future career as a family lawyer. Maybe one day, I would have an office like my boss had now, and be a real specialist in the field.

When my coffee was ready, I sat down in my chair and turned to the floor-length window that opened a beautiful view of the city, with endless rows of buildings and people going in different directions. I always loved New York. With its traffic, crazy lifestyle, hurry and crowds. I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else, but here. Not that I didn’t like the moments of peace and quiet. But silence scared me. I never liked being alone. Said a girl whose personal life was as good-for-nothing as looking for a flower in Central Park in January.

“Is there a way to bring back a smile to your beautiful face?” Leonel’s voice rang right above my head.

I turned around and – goddamnit – my breathing caught for a second. There was nothing new about him. Still, it felt like I hadn’t seen him for ages.

He was wearing one of his favorite black suits with a snow-white shirt and a gray tie. But it was the look of his eyes that wouldn’t let me breathe freely.

“Good morning,” I said, as happy to see him again as ever.

“It’s a good morning indeed.” He smiled and my stupid-stupid heart melted. Why did he have that effect on me? He didn’t need to do anything special. But every time he talked to me, I felt like my hate for him was vanishing, turning into something completely different…

“Are you done with your meeting?” I asked, trying to fill out the uneasy pause when we did nothing but looked at one another.

“No, but I heard you were here, and I wanted to say hi.”

Another comment that shattered my original reasons for coming to his office a few weeks ago.

“Time flies…”

“What do you mean?”

I shook my head. “Forget it. Just thinking aloud.” I looked down at the papers spread across my desk, trying to come up with an excuse to end this conversation.

Then Leonel decided to make it harder for me. “I’d like you to join my next meeting with the clients. They should be here in about half an hour.
