Can you mend my broken heart?

Wiping out the almost dried up tears from her eyes, she slowly patted on her face, as she was about to reach her hotel - 'The Savoy'.

She checked in to her room and went to take a cold shower immediately, to calm her frigid nerves down. Standing under the water, she touched her lips as the memories kept flooding in.

That gentle touch of his lips, although a bit hesitant at first, that taste of his mouth, that musky smell of his, it all felt the same. Even his hair felt the same, the way her fingers ran across his hair felt the same. She was unable to believe that he was someone else. Maybe she was hallucinating, but it was too real, too surreal for her to even think for one second that it was all in her head.

Wrapping herself in a bathrobe, she came out of the shower and wanting to push away the clouding thoughts scattered all across her head, she opened the balcony doors and stood outside, to get a view of the city and to push away the fleeting thoughts.

As her room was on the 11th floor, it was quite windy and breezy. As she had just taken bath, she felt a bit chilly and rubbed her palm around her shoulders. Seeing her like this, his hands itched to cover her up with his jacket.

Standing on the balcony perpendicular to hers, he acted all aloof, holding his newspaper. But, only he knew how bad his heart was racing, seeing her so close after all these days. As the wind ruffled through her damp hair, his hands twitched to hold her in his arms but in no way, he was to repeat the mistake that he did in the morning.

He stood there gawking at her through the edges of his newspaper, while she stood there soothing her frigid nerves.

A couple of minutes later she went inside and wore her clothes.

She was supposed to have a big meeting tomorrow with Azmer Groups, the leading tech company producing high-quality 3-D imaging technology, which she needed for a new game project and she was here to discuss the contract terms.

Since she had preponed the meeting for tomorrow early morning, she wanted to check the meeting venue beforehand as she wanted to make sure the room was ready for her to present her current 3-D projection plans.

It was already late in the evening and she wanted to wrap the activity as soon as possible. So she went inside the meeting room which had been booked by her company in the hotel. She was accompanied by hotel staff to make sure that she didn't face any issues as she was a top tier premium guest at their hotel.

The meeting room was in the innermost section of the hotel's business area. Pretty secluded from the normal hustle bustle and perfect for project meetings. After the setting was complete, Akira requested the person who had accompanied her to leave, so that she could practice her pitch all alone in the room for a while.

She started off with her pitch, trying to divert her mind and channeled all her thoughts into her project. But midway suddenly all the lights just went out and she was surrounded by pitch black darkness. She had forgotten her phone back in the room, and there was no source of light with her. She had always been scared of darkness and right now she was almost on the verge of shouting her lungs out, all scared.

But suddenly she heard the door creak open.
