After reaching the peak, Sky's arms were sore. She cried with no tears making others laugh. They were all proud of her making it to the top as they didn't expect her to complete.

Peter taught her rappeling and how to use her toes and feet well before she careening down suspended by only one single piece of rope.

All celebrated their clearing of activities and successful completion of weekend outing with wine and lots of meat. All pulled tried bodies to their villa. Sky finished her calls before asking Sam to help her in the kitchen of the restaurant.

Both swiftly baked a cake and settled on the chair waiting for the other three who came rubbing their eyes.

"Ms.Sky, Aren't you tired? Why are you torturing us at this time?" Peter rested his head on the table after sitting.

Sam kicked his chair making him grit his teeth. Sky replied, "What kind of brother are you? Clark's birthday. Pull yourself for half an hour."

"Any plans?... Let's scare him." Peter suggested like a kid making others laugh.

"Bad idea!" Sky replied but Peter wanted to scare and went to Clark's villa covering himself in white cloth.

Sky and others had to stay a little away and looked at his play. Peter rang the bell and started walking near the windows and the door.

"I bet, he will get beaten up by Clark." Sky said.

"No!" Sam said surprising Sky. Former continued looking at her, "Clark will chase him to beat."

Sky burst into laughter but had to close her mouth hearing Peter. The latter played some horror music on his phone making it hard for Sky to control laughter.

"Did he drink too much? What's wrong with him?" Sky asked as her face was red controlling her laughter.

Other men looked at him as a joker. Clark checked through the window first and opened the door holding a vase. Peter couldn't turnoff mobile as Clark chased him.

Luckily Peter went towards Sky and others. She was holding her stomach and laughing hearing to Clark curse Peter thinking he was a thief or some con artist.

He shut his mouth when he saw Sky and others. After realizing the white-clothed man was Peter, he spoke, "Brother Peter, do I look like a small kid to get scared? And why are you all supporting his nonsense?"

Sky stopped laughing and helped Peter to get out of white cloth. Peter threatened after coming out "Kiddo, How dare you to curse me?"

Sam lighted the candle and handed the cake to Sky. Clark was surprised and cut the cake as Sky sang the birthday song and others just clapped.

"Sister Sky! last year you got hospitalized and none of them wished me." Clark gave her a friendly hug and made faces at others.

"Here you go." Sky handed a box taking out from her jacket.

Clark excitedly saw it. It was a multi-utility pocket knife.

"I saw your pocket knife was old so I chose this." Sky said why she chose the knife.

"Was it old?" Maxwell asked as he saw the new imported pocket knife.

"Sister Sky! You are the..." He wanted to continue when Sky held another box for him.

He excitedly took and saw a wallet. "Release your game soon and earn lots of pretty fans with lots of money."

He was still grinning and thinking what to say, Sky took out one more, "Last one!"

"Sky! Isn't it too much?" Sam said as he crossed his hands.

Sky laughed hearing his tone and nudged, "Why are you sounding jealous at kid? I will get you more."

Sam rolled his eyes and dragged to her villa, "That's enough! Go to bed."

All laughed looking at Sam, Sky waved at them as she followed Sam.

"Don't you think you pamper too much? Why are you spoiling them?" Sam said in cold tone which carried a hint of jealousy.

"Oh! You have Brother Dan, Mia and me to spoil you. Let me spoil him a little too." Sky replied nonchalantly as they went towards her villa...

"Thank you!" Sky thanked as she waved to him before closing the door.

Sam smiled and left to his villa. Even though she didn't mention why she thanked him, he knew all the reasons why she said thank you to him.

Sky slept as soon as her head hit the pillow. She missed that feeling for a long time. The second time she slept peacefully after a long time.

Early morning, they left the resort and boarded the plane. They went to Sapphire tower. Sky went to Jai's apartment and others to the penthouse.

Sam dropped her to the office after breakfast. Arlo and Andy greeted her as usual. Even though she was cold, Arlo realized the hint of sorrow or pain which she carried the previous week wasn't there anymore but she didn't look him in the face either.

During lunch, when he spoke to her, she would listen and only hum if she had to else no word came out of her lips.

Both returned to the home separately. After dinner, Sky went to her crafts room, Ryan and Arlo to Ryan's room. When Sky returned to the living room, all were sitting on the couch.

Sky sat next to David and handed him boutonniere made of warm-colored feathers. "Dad! For buttonhole of blazers. You can use a small flower with this."

David rubbed her head dotingly as he checked it.

"Hey! For me?" Ryan asked. Sky passed him vibrant colored boutonniere.

"Wow! Where did you get this?" Ryan asked as he admired the boutonniere.

"Sky made it. I'm sure, she got feathers in the forest... By the way, for your husband!" David looked at her.

Sky knew he would ask, "There!" She pointed at the coffee table. "Give him!" David said.

Arlo looked at her getting up and taking a dark boutonniere from the coffee table. She reached him, kept it on his hand and left. She didn't see his face again.

"Why all dark?" He purposefully asked to know whether she would respond or not.

Sky paused, "I don't know." Her voice was very low which heard by him only.
