It had been two years. She had already let it go, more or less. But his reappearance still took and overwhelmed her just like that.

She was not even sure if he had recognized her at the first sight, just like she had as he walked past with a quick brush.

Jeffrey took office and held a few meetings immediately to make some adjustments to personnel and the magazine’s positioning.
