Attempts at perfection[118]

"Uh . . . Nothing happened to be exact. I just wanted to inform you that I would be late today. I had just caught up with some work in the office. So I'm staying late today. I hope it's fine with you." She informed.

"Oh don't worry. I would be fine. Just finish your work soon and come back early." I told her as I pictured her holding the phone between her ear and her shoulder while working on some files and designs. 

"Cook something for yourself and go to bed early, okay! I would try to finish my work as soon as possible." I could hear the turning of pages behind her voice. She must be really busy with her work, I thought to myself.

"Don't worry about me. Good bye." I said and disconnected the call.
