- Cat, come closer.

- Yes, Pat! – I joked with him.

- Oh, I liked that! – He smiled, a beautiful and relaxed smile. – But come closer and smell me.

- I didn't turn into a dog, Patrício! – I joked with him.

- Silly! I changed my perfume, I want to know if you like this one. – Patrício was a sweetheart and very attentive.

- Oh, I like this one! – I said after I smelled him.

- Great, because I don't want my advisor running away from me. – He let out a hearty laugh and went into his office.

Only then did I notice Rick standing at the door watching the scene.

- What did I miss? – Rick asked.

- Nothing special, Rick. I was bothered by the perfume Patrício was wearing earlier and he was kind enough to change it. – I replied smiling.

- Showing who's boss! I liked it! – Rick commented. - Cat, how are you? We're worried.
