I felt how Adam seemed to hesitate for a moment before he spoke again, his voice sounding gentle this time. “About our failed coffee date, I hope I didn’t make you uncomfortable then.” And I sighed as I did turn around to face him again. what the hell does this man want from me? “Adam, we work together now, and I don’t want anything to jeopardize this project or our professional relationship.” I told him because telling him to ‘f**k off’ surely didn’t sound as professional. “I understand, but I still need to apologize to you for the way I acted,” Adam spoke, his expression sincere, even though I also spotted something else in his dark eyes. As if somehow, he was taking on a challenge for himself. But instead of thinking about it, I simply nodded and decided to drop it and just move on.
