Chapter 8 My Officemate - Michael Carpio

• Since the disappearance of Jade Louise, Jordan Kian discovered and explored other than what he perceived as heaven, to erase the pain. His friend Michael Carpio knew that Jordan will develop his closeness to him, even in the office. Jordan's eyes were fixed on what was going on behind the glass panes in the office above him. He had an inkling of what the department heads were talking about. It wasn't over yet. He would have to go back there to this place he refused to even think about. To forget him, he did everything, everything that was humanly possible.
• He saw how Michael Carpio shook his head, knowing that it would be just as difficult, if not more difficult, to agree to a plan like this. Michael feared for him. Michael suspected something, even if he didn't say it, at least hadn't said it until now.
• Jordan Kian was careful, careful to hide the punctures. And yet, one look would have been enough, a tiny carelessness, a moment of passion that didn't distract the other well enough, didn't give him the impression that Michael was trying so desperately to convey.
