Camila replied, “He hasn’t left the office yet.”

A flicker of surprise crossed the driver’s eyes. Ten minutes ago, Connor messaged him that he was off work.

“See you.” Camila nodded as she walked toward the curb.

“Hey, Camila, aren’t you getting in?” the driver asked.

Camila shook her head. “I have plans with a friend.”

The driver gave a meaningful grunt, looked up at the building, and sighed.
