When I saw Lachlan holding the elevator for me, it felt like a heavy weight pushed down against my chest. I wanted to say something to him, but I couldn’t get the words out. He just stood there, holding the door and looking into my eyes. I could see the pain on his face, whether he wanted to admit it or not. When he brushed past me, it broke my heart. I hated seeing him like that. Still, I did what I had to do and I knew he would get over me eventually.

I got on the elevator and tapped the button for the sixth floor to head to my office. Before the doors closed, a few more people stepped on with me. I recognized couple of them as doctors from the hospital, but we didn’t talk. Besides, I wasn’t in the mood for chitchat. Lachlan was here for a reason, I just didn’t know why. I assumed he came to see me and ended up leaving a message with the receptionist for me.

By the time I got to the sixth floor, I was the only one left on the elevator. The door chimed and opened and I stepped out. The waiting room was a little busier than usual, which was why I was asked if I could come in. Originally, I had booked the day off. I figured I had nothing to do today and I could use the money. Since accepting the offer for my condo, a little less than I had hoped, I had taken to picking up a couple extra shifts or working late. Money wasn’t that big of an issue for me, but the pricing market in town where I was looking for a new place was a little higher than the suburbs where my condo was.

I made my way towards the receptionist. There were a few people lined up, so I waited until they had gone through before speaking with her. When she was free, I approached. “Hey, I think someone might have left a message for me with you. Do you mind checking?”

“Uhh, I don’t remember getting a message, but let me check.” She tapped a few keys on the computer. “Nope, doesn’t look like it.”

Confused, I scratched my head. I assumed Lachlan was here for me and left a message with the receptionist, so I was little thrown off. “Are you sure? Maybe check under Lachlan McKinney’s file. He just left a few minutes ago.”

She tapped a few more keys. “Just give me a second and I’ll check it out,” she said. “Alrighty. So, you’re right, we do have a Lachlan McKinney that was signed in today. But, it doesn’t look like he left you a message. Sorry to disappoint you, but it looks like he wasn’t here for you, he just had an appointment with another doctor.”

The words stung when I heard them and I lowered my head. I was so sure that he had come here to leave me a message.
