get to know me

Karim's POV:

I glanced at my watch, noting the time and observing my colleagues busily handling their tasks. It was my first day back at work, but my mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Kristen. The past few days I spent with her were some of the best of my life. I had left her that morning after making breakfast, and now I was eager to get back to her.

As hours passed and I finally got a break, I turned on my phone. There was a message from Kristen: "Your cooking is good, I loved the breakfast." A wave of relief washed over me—she liked it. I quickly replied. 

But then I noticed new messages from someone I didn't want to talk to. I decided it was best to remove my presence silently rather than cause a scene. I opened my other account to glance at it, but just then, my colleague came over, and I turned off my phone, getting back to work.
