I leaned over and checked my phone, seeing the flood of messages and meeting requests.
Why is it always like this when I come back from a trip?
"What's wrong?" asked Leslie, looking at me with worry.
Her troubled look was so adorable that I wanted to lean over and place a kiss on those pouty lips.
"It's nothing major. Just everyone seems to have a meeting scheduled with me today. It seems like I won't be able to spend much time with you today," I said with a tinge of sadness.
I didn't want to admit it, but I was feeling reluctant to leave her side.
She looked at me, clearly holding back a laugh. I was relieved to see her smiling face, happy that her cheeks now had a rosy glow.
We chatted while I got dressed. She was telling me about her plans to meet up with the designer in charge of the Sophia season launch collection.
