At Frost Corporation.

Zach attended a scheduled meeting with the finance department. They were presenting the newly revised budget for the new construction project. The architects and construction overseers had suggested some changes due to the type of soil they were constructing on. Zach had approved and asked the finance department to revise the budget before reporting to him. He was to visit the site over the weekend to oversee the implementation of the new changes.

However, the room temperature had fallen below zero. Zach seemed much more intimidating than usual. The team lead was internally grateful he had not been called out on his verbal mistake. It seemed the big man's mind had wandered off. Who pissed him off?

No, the question was: who frustrated him? Answer: Amy. He still had not gotten a response from her. Why is she not responding to his emails? A whole day had passed and he spent he night more awake checking his inbox than sleeping only to find: nothing. Could she really have not seen his emails? But this was a work email, so she probably checked all her emails so, why?

Snap!

All eyes fell on Zach's hand that had snapped a pen in half. George was quick to clean up before ink stained the man's hands. He ignored the pleading eyes of the frightened team. He refused to be used as a sacrificial lamb.

'Damn it! I can't even think in peace', he mused in annoyance.

"Ten minutes."

Everyone: "..."

'Didn't this two hour meeting start about five minutes ago?' they all had the same thought at Zach's sudden command.

"Sir?" The team lead fell into internal panic. He looked to his teammates for who instead avoided his gaze. It was he who insisted on presenting the report so he would look good to the Chairman. Things seemed to have turned around for him.

Perspiration formed on his forehead and he looked so pitiful as he fished out a handkerchief with a shaking hand to wipe his forehead. George wanted to at least speak up but when he saw Zach's expression, he clammed his mouth shut. The team lead stuttered his way through the report summary.

"Is it doable?" Zach asked with clear impatience.

"Yes, sir."

"Okay. George, bring the summarized report to my office", he said before he left the room. He did not see how flabbergasted the finance team was as he hurried to his office. He poured himself some scotch and walked to the floor to ceiling window with one hand shuffled in his trouser pocket.

What could be the possible reason she would ignore him? He refused to believe that there weren't any special feelings between them when they made love for the last time. He could see it in her eyes as she moved in sync with him. He felt it when she kissed him and touched him. His heart knew. That's another reason he was hell bent on finding her. Why he had not given up so easily.

He cursed under his breath. The thought of her was already exciting his junior. He drunk the scotch and took a deep breath. 'If I was Amy, why would I not contact me?' he closed his eyes and tried to see things from her perspective. He took in her circumstances, though he did not fully understand them and, his eyes snapped open. He chuckled, "No, I'm not giving up that easily! I always get what I want!"

George: "..."

He tried knocking but his boss was unresponsive so he walked in to silently place the summarised report only to find him chuckling. 'How could his mood change so quickly?'
