Normally Tiago would be received with great reverence by the manager, but today he noticed that his desk was empty. One of the employees, a young man with a way of being an intern, approached him with apprehension on his face.
"Sir... Mr. Cerqueira did not come to work. There was a family emergency."
Tiago turns to him in surprise. "Really? We had an appointment for today. I don't have all the time in the world, my boy."
