The Returning Ex

Zack seemed a little stunned by Sophia’s words. She then burst into laughter as she explained, “I was just fooling around; you don’t have to take me so seriously.” To change the topic, she gestured toward him. “Come and eat with me.

“Your stomach is weak, so you shouldn’t eat so much of these spicy foods,” he remarked as he glanced at the dishes on the table. He then looked at the time before he continued, “I’m not going to stay for food as I still have some documents to review. You know your ex-husband; he’d murder me if I ever neglected my work.”

Sophia only nodded. “Alright; you should head back to work, then. We can have a meal when you have the time; we haven’t eaten together in a while.”

“Sure,” he answered with a nod.

She didn’t see him out and instead sat down and continued to consume her meal slowly. Every now and then, she glanced at the other pill placed on the table from the side of her eye.
