Stella woke up the next morning and headed to the office after having her breakfast. She didn''t eat much, even though she was hungry.
"Hey Bella." She greeted Bella as she exited the elevator. Though she had the key card with her but she didn''t use the elevator that was exclusive for Adam. She wouldn''t want people to talk behind her back, especially not about Adam.
"Hey Stella! Thanks for last night." Bella greeted her with a wide smile.
"It''s no big deal." Stella politely replied. "Is there anything for me to do today? I don''t have any pending work." She asked her.
"Nope! No work at all." Bella replied.
"I will be in my office, do tell me if anything comes up." Stella added and made her way to her office.
"I will let you know." Bella replied as she looked at her retreating figure. Once she was out of her sight, her eyes fell on to the screen of her computer which was showing an email from her boss.
--------
From: Adam
To: Bella
Subject: Stella
Don''t pass any files to her, not until I come back. Ask her to leave early.
--------
After replying to the email, she busied herself, going through the emails that she needed to forward to her boss.
Stella slouched down on her chair as she switched on the computer. After making sure that she had no pending work, she decided to go through her social media accounts. As she was was scrolling down her Instagram feed with a bored expression on her face, she heard a ping. She had received an email.
Thinking that it might be from Bella, she opened it. Her lips broke into a wide smile when she saw that the email was from Adam.

From: Adam

Subject: Breakfast
You didn''t forget to eat a proper breakfast, did you?
---------
Stella typed in a reply and hit send.
From: Stella
To: Adam
Subject: Email
Why are you sending me emails when you have my phone number?
And yes I did have a proper breakfast.
--------
Stella decided to tell him a white lie. Though she didn''t eat properly but she did have something to eat. She was lost in her thoughts when she heard another ping.

Subject: You
You and busy? Doing what?
Surfing the internet?
Scrolling through your feed?
You were probably done with facebook already and must have been scrolling through your instagram feed, liking pictures of food.
---------
Stella looked at her computer screen with her eyes popping out of their sockets. ''How did he know?'' The picture that she liked was indeed a picture of some exotic dish which is mostly made in Switzerland.

From: Adam

I don''t need to spy on my girlfriend to know what she is actually doing. I know her pretty well.

Your girlfriend must be flattered that you know her this well.
---------
From: Adam
To: Stella
Subject: Girlfriend
Oh! Trust me!
She definitely is.

Stella bit her lower lip, looking at the wink he had added at the end.
---------
From: Stella
To: Adam
Subject: Your eye
Is there something wrong with your eye Mr Adam?
---------
From: Adam
To: Stella
Subject: My eye
I assure you that my eye is definitely fine. Both of them are.
---------
From: Stella
To: Adam
Subject: Meeting
Focus on the meeting Adam. We will talk when you get free.
I don''t have anything to do anyways. So give me a call when your are free.
---------
From: Adam
To: Stella
Subject: You
Alright! I will focus on the meeting for now.
If you don''t have any work to do, why don''t you head home and relax sweetheart?
Or you can go out with Katherine. I can assure you that she will be more than happy to go out.
Take care of yourself. Eat well. Sleep well. Did I mention EAT WELL?
And I miss you.
-----------
From: Stella
To: Adam
Subject: You
I will see about the going out part.
And yes, yes, yes. I will do all of these.
You too take care of yourself. Don''t over work.
I miss you too.
<3

Stella shut down her computer after waiting for a while for Adam''s reply but didn''t get any. ''He must be busy.''
She headed out of her office. After saying her goodbyes to Bella and whoever she met on the way, she made her way to the parking lot where her chauffeur was waiting for him.
"Take me to Golden Corals." She spoke up after settling in the car.
