The city lights below twinkled like stars, a reminder of the world beyond these walls.
I turned away from the window, leaving behind the reflection that had haunted me.
Tonight, I would find solace in the quiet, allowing the silence to settle, if only briefly.
Tomorrow would come, bringing with it the challenges and decisions that had to be faced.
And in the morning, I would stand before the company, ready to speak, silence no longer holding me captive.
For now, I would rest, seeking clarity in the stillness of the night.
The girl’s presence, though unsettling, had opened my eyes to the complexities I had long ignored.
With a final glance at the city, I turned off the office lights, leaving it behind for the night.
In the darkness, I found a moment’s peace, a reprieve from the chaos that awaited.
Tomorrow, I would face the boardroom, the challenges, and the whispered silence, prepared to reclaim control.
