Aloof CEO's; Charming Secretary

Sky looked at him and remembered he had told to Mr.Reed as friend hence she asked, "Are you asking as a secretary or as... as an old friend?"

Andy hesitated for a movement and answered, "A... A friend." and he looked forward to listening to her.

After a minute of silence, "A few years back I came with a guy, I was so happy to be with him here, I miss those laughters and smiles. Just by standing beside him, accompanying him was making me happiest and cheerful. I liked to spend time with him. Was I too greedy?"

She looked at him with an expectant look.

Andy never expected Sky to be emotional. He tried to analyze what she said and he was dumbfounded by his thought.

'was.. was it me?'  He didn't want to think about it.

Sky shook her head lightly, "Do you know why I was happy and cheery with him?"

Andy looked at her but didn't reply to her.

Sky continued, "Because except with my brothers and parents, He was the one with whom I was ME. Without any filters."

"He understood me and stood by me without mocking when he got to know I was Heiress of Harley, unlike the other friends who gave me sarcastic laugh saying I was daydreaming of becoming a Cinderella. When he let me down, it was true I was downcasted but I felt happy for his bride because any girl will want her husband to support her even if she was doing wrong.

Many thought I missed him after leaving Town A But NO !

I didn't miss him. I missed only memories. Because I caught him lying to me so many times like 'I'm in office' 'I'm out with friends ' and so on but he didn't know I used to be around the same area and was calling him to surprise but he always surprised me with a lie."

"That time I understood the true power of LIE , how one or two lies will make us doubt about everything they said. I even doubted whether he was pretending to be my friend." Sky smirked but her emotionless voice continued.

"My stupidity was being available to him whenever he needed my help even after knowing he was using me as a substitute during those five months."

"Everybody thought I actually came to Harley because of him but it wasn't entirely true. He was just a basic reason. Only Brother Jai knows why I actually came to the capital. I'm thankful for that incident. After that only everything happened and I accepted my father."

"But he WAS. FRIEND . Nothing more."

Sky stressed WAS and FRIEND to let him know clearly. Andy was smart enough to understand it.

Sky never wanted to say all these to him but she had heard Sam and Andy talk to each other in her study when she went to use the restroom, she wanted to make sure for him to know he was nothing to her. Sky also knew Sam asked it on purpose so that she could hear him and beware.

Even though while asking Andy, Sam behaved as if by mistake he asked, Sky knew well he wasn't someone to ask random or such questions to people like Andy and she was an exception.

As Andy continued to hear her cold tone, he regretted everything he did to her. He also knew he couldn't do anything about it now.

"Anyway! I was not coming for any of that, I was coming for these." Sky pointed at Carlton lake on the left and sunset on the right.

The reddish-orange sun illuminated the lake in its colors which looked very beautiful and pleasing to the eyes just like her.

Sky took her phone and sent a number to Andy. "Do you remember Hana?"

Hana and Andy studied in the same college but in different departments. She liked Andy and proposed to him but the latter had rejected her.

"Hana Rowley?... Yes!" Andy responded in low voice.

"I sent her number to you. I had met her last month. She asked me to give her number to you." Since they always met in working hours, she never thought about it.

"Oh!" Andy checked the phone and stuffed back.

Both sat silently for a few minutes until Sky spoke, "Can you get me water? You have to go up till there and on right there will be a boy selling them... Thank you." Sky pointed uphill and turned back towards the lake view.

Andy got up and left remorseful.

After realizing he started to hike, she took her mobile out and called a number. The call was received after a few rings. "Brother Jai!" Sky greeted.

The other end took a few seconds before replying. "Sky! Why is your voice down?"

Sky hit on her forehead. She thought she sounded normal. "Brother Jai! How do you get to know so easily?"

Sky heard a low chuckle before the reply, "I get to know because you are my little sister. Now tell me."

"Brother Jai, Can I marry Arlo?"

"Yes!"

"Tomorrow."

"No problem!"

"I decided because his grandmother is hospitalized and it's her wish."

"Okay!"

Sky was speechless. She took a few breaths and said, "Brother Jai! I'm not joking."

"Me too!"

"Brother Jai, Don't you think your reaction is too bland? Shouldn't brothers scold? Brother Jai! I'm not understanding you now."

After a pause, she heard "Do you remember what I told you once related to this topic?"

Sky, of course, remembers whatever he tells her. "You will support me whoever I choose to marry and we will still be the same as we are now."

'Isn't he gay? Why is Brother Jai agreeing so easily?'  Sky started to doubt.

"Right!"

Jai's voice wasn't excited nor even sad. It was as if everything was in his expectation.

"Ahhh... Brother Jai! What if I'm making a mistake? How can you let somebody marry your sister so easily?"

"Okay! Next time when I meet him, I will beat him up for marrying you."

"Why are you saying my dialogues? Brother Jai! Can we be serious about this topic?" Sky wailed.

Sky could say Jai was controlling his chuckle. "My little sister!"

"Hmmm?"

"You don't know cooking, he knows well. What else a foodie like you need?"

Sky looked at her mobile screen to make sure she called the right number. She stared at the phone for a long time and asked, "Brother Jai! Am I sleeping and dreaming?"

Sky heard multiple chortles on the other end and dumbfounded.

"Sister Sky! You are so cute!"

"Princess! Is he the same boy who you always praised for his cooking?"

"Sky! Bring him home soon."

"Lass! You could have held a wedding tomorrow instead."

"My little sister, Do you want me to come tomorrow?"

Sky really wanted to cry. She started to think there was something wrong with her brain.
