Russell asked about her as well, and Melissa tried to explain what had happened. Russell explained that he would be back at work in six weeks. Melissa felt that this was too long, but she didn’t want to show it.
Melissa explained her experience in detail to him and expressed how embarrassing it had been for her. Russell tried to encourage her, which brought tears to her eyes. She smiled, Russell had truly become a good friend.
Russell was honest and confessed that he would miss Melissa if she started shopping elsewhere. Melissa gathered her courage and said that she would miss him too. So things would remain the same. And who knows, maybe something more would develop between them in the near future?
