Alex sat back in his seat, the weight of the empty office pressing on him like a vacuum.
He sighed and rubbed his throbbing templates.
He already had a lot on his plate before but now, with the involvement of the maid boy he knew his next few weeks would be hectic. He didn't even know what pushed him to make the decision of having a personal maid but he wanted to believe it was for the best as he was always getting into trouble. His mind flashed back to the conversation he had with Kyle after the mysterious hugging incident.

"I… he… you saw it?"
"As a matter of fact I saw how you slapped him." Alex deadpanned.
Kyle's temper flared.
"Then you should have seen when he harassed me! Isn't that against the code of conduct or something?"
"Code of conduct?"
Kyle pressed his lips together.
Alex sighed and spoke again.
