"Finally!" Anna sighed as she reached the office after a long and extremely unpleasant journey. Firstly, the bus she boarded to reach the office, broke down as soon as she sat by the window seat. Then the other bus which she boarded was so crowded that she barely breathed. And after deboarding that one, her favorite dusty pink cuffed shirt got douched with obnoxiously smelling pigeon's pee. She dumped her favorite shirt and changed into a simple white shirt which she had to buy immediately from the nearest shop for the day. However, she was happy that she reached on time despite all the unfortunate events.
"Hey, Anna!" Alira greeted her with a formal smile.
Anna understood the reason for her formal behavior. Guilt crippled her but putting it aside she smiled and greeted her back, "Hi, Ali!". Hoping that Ali won't be mad at her she held her hand and started walking inside the office premises.
