    Brilliance: Worker's Comp, Pt. 17

    They'd been exchanging work-related emails most of the morning, and her thoughts began to drift towards wondering if he was thinking of her in ways that were definitively un-work-related.

    She pictured him alone at his desk across town, putting up a pretty good front of working dilligently but without actually doing anything at all.  She was supposed to be managing a rather detailed project herself, but had lost focus somewhere between coffee breaks.  Her thoughts began to transition from gentle blurs into a full-on daydream.

    He was at his desk, re-reading her last email.  It was only a few lines, but she'd added a smiley emoticon, something a little out-of-character for her (and her email).  He thought of her actual smile, and wondered if any of her thoughts were of him.
