Ariana arrived at the company early in the morning, only to find someone waiting for her. Tyler was squatting at the entrance, looking up at her with a broad smile on his face.

“Arianal!" he exclaimed happily.

Ariana's eyebrows lifted up in surprise as she saw Tyler waiting outside. It was still early, and the air was chilly with a frosty bite. She couldn't help but wonder how long he had been waiting there.

"How long have you been here?" she asked, a tinge of worry in her voice.

Tyler gave her a small, restrained smile.
