Alice Turner paid no attention to the person following her, going straight to her desk and sitting down, while Anthony sat uninvited on the chair opposite her.
"I haven't seen you these past two days, and I've missed you terribly, so much that I couldn't eat or sleep." He spoke to her from behind the desk, seemingly absorbed in his own narrative.

Alice Turner glanced at Anthony but didn't stop what she was doing, taking out her laptop to boot it up and start her work for the day.
Anthony raised his hand to swear, "I swear..."
At that moment, the phone in Alice Turner's bag suddenly rang, and she reached for the bag, pulling out the phone that wouldn't stop ringing.

Seeing the name saved in her phone, Alice Turner's face darkened slightly, and she slid her finger across the screen to answer the call.
