The Past

SEB

/"Mike, we need to talk. If you can give me time today, I would appreciate it,/" I say over the phone.

/"Of course. Son, is everything okay?/" I can hear the worry in his voice.

/"Everything is okay. It’s is about Abbygail./"

/"Of course, can you come to my office?/"

/"On my way./" I hung up and hurry toward the door. I found Elle on her desk. /"Forward only important calls. I’ll call you tonight if I need off tomorrow./" After what I found out, I need a day off or even a month.

/"Of course. Anything else?/"

/"That’s all./"

/"Take care, Seb./"

/"You too, Elle./"

His PA Grace leads me to his office. Mike is facing the window with a glass in his hand. I feel suffocated all of a sudden. I guess it won’t be easy for him to tell what happened years ago.

/"Have a seat, son. You might need a drink./" He pours whiskey into a glass and hands it to me. I take it and drink it in one gulp.
