CHAPTER 80: SENDING FLOWERS

The next morning, I was thrown into a jumble of activities as we tried to go over our schedule and meet up with time. I stood with Juliana as we discussed the remaining details to do today. I was thrown off when Dalia barged into the room in a rush and without knocking. Ever heard of knocking? I threw her an angry look as I tried to steady my racing heart. Dalias face flushed with embarrassment. She looked at our stormy faces and immediately put herself in check. "I just forgot to knock. Is it worth making such a big deal about it? I'll remember next time. Now, look at this," Dalia said dismissively as she tossed some documents on the table and turned to leave. But as Dalia took a few steps, the documents hit her back and then fell to the floor. Lauretta had given Dalia an indifferent glance but hadn't paid any attention since. The sound of the documents hitting the ground turned the office eerily silent, with Juliana and Lauretta too engrossed in their work to bother looking up.
