28 Am I Flirting?

Lina followed William Zheng to an office at the end of the long corridor. Two huge double doors opened to reveal a bright, clean office.

Rows upon rows of books filled the shelved walls and a round beechwood table stood center, displaying models of different buildings and towers.

Lina stopped to admire some of the models and she placed a curious finger on one particularly beautiful building.

"This one is a mansion, designed for an Italian client." said Mr.Zheng, leaning over her. "See this open space in the middle? It's called an atrium, derived from the Latin Atria."

"It's got trees?" she asked curiously, "Trees inside a home?"

He smiled, "Yes, small trees and flowers. The purpose of atrium is to bring the outdoors inside. It's proven to relieve stress, plus it's beautiful isn't it?"

She nodded bashfully, "Yes... Do you design any of the buildings or do you just sell them?"
