Sky wanted to hide under the table. Clark burst into laughter. Sam and Arlo continued eating as if nothing they said or heard.

Sky continued breakfast without uttering a single word till last.

Elina had cravings to eat in an Italian restaurant. Peter had taken her to one. Peter let her order first as he checked the menu.

Elina ordered and closed the menu, "Smoked Italian sausage with honey garlic and Potato bean salad. Thank you."

"Real Meatballs with Spaghetti, Thank you!" Peter order and eyed Elina mischievously.

"Ooooh! You want to eat sausage... I have one too... It's free... And it's..." Peter didn't get to finish as Elina stomped her heel on his foot.

"Dirty man!..."

***

Elina whined that on phone call where Sky was controlling hard not to laugh after understanding what it meant.

"Ms.Sky, You will not believe, a waiter heard him and was laughing all the time. I don't even dare to go that side anymore. I kicked Peet out of the bedroom yesterday."

Sky had called to congratulate Elina and she heard a complaint about Peter.

--

"I have packed breakfast for Max and Jimmy. Give it to them." Sky said before exiting the penthouse.

Arlo chided her for having a girl-friend who says such things to her. But their fun was only till they entered the Harley Corporation.

Sky was in meeting all day controlling one or the other thing. Even her lunchtime shortened to fifteen minutes where she hurriedly ate little and left apologizing Arlo for not being able to sit long with him.

By the end of the day, Sam and others found out that the intruder used batteries for explosion and it affected his eyes. which resulted in him bump on other rack and fall on the floor.

The batteries were used to boil the Anhydrous ammonia containers in the refrigerator whose outcome was an explosion and fire spread one after the other to nearby electronic devices.

The intruder kept his head low all the time which made them take a longer time to identify the person. They got a blurry image but it was difficult to build the image. So they were trying to find other clues.

After the insurance company visited and came to the Harley corporation, they clearly explained Harley could claim the actual cash value of the warehouse right away but electronics insurance could be claimed after they receive a report from the police.

Finding an instigator became very important.

After working for more than twelve hours, Peter found a suspicion car which was at three warehouses on three different days.

They didn't go to the Harley mansion and went to a flat in the Sapphire Tower. Seeing her work on the dining table, he fed her as he ate. He wanted to help her but he also knew she wouldn't agree so he silently watched them do.

Sky noticed Arlo sitting quietly after dinner. She clearly remembered he was running around for her work and she didn't even get time to sit and have a small talk with him. She looked at all the emails and digital files on her laptop and at Arlo.

The Harley corporation wasn't important than him so she closed the laptop. "Let's go to bed."

Arlo knew her workload, seeing her close her laptop surprised him. Thinking she might change her mind, he took her to room quickly for resting seeing her exhausted.

He was thinking she would fall asleep as she was tired but she spoke to him for some time and even told some tiny past stories from which he fell asleep first.

The next day morning he got to know she worked in the bedroom by seeing a laptop next to her. When he checked the laptop, the last mail was sent at dawn time, half-past three.

It warmed his heart realizing she wanted to spend time with him irrespective of work. He kissed on her forehead before leaning on the headboard and preparing drafts for emails and files she would have to check later.

It was always small things that bring happiness in life. It may look nothing to some but those would be moments that stay with us.

He realized the value of those moments when Sky had stopped talking with him and he realized why she would always have a beautiful smile just by forehead kisses, drying her hair, sitting with her, watching sunsets, jumping around like a kid, appreciating whoever was good...

It was seven when she was half awake and mumbled, "Why did you wake so soon?" She moved up from the pillow and leaned on him before falling asleep again.

He didn't disturb her, his left hand lightly patted on her back as his right hand continued typing on the keyboard. She woke up when her alarm rang.

"Go and shower! I will cook something for you." Sky said in a groggy voice after taking her laptop but Arlo left it aside and sent her to the bathroom.

"Let me serve you, Your Highness."

Sky giggled seeing him bow formally as they do in palaces. So she added, "I'm granting your wish Gentleman-in-waiting."

They got back to work soon. Ryan was back to the capital and rushed to the Harley corporation first. Sky was going to a meeting when he went to her office.

He looked like a tensed puppy and gave her a quick hug without caring who was around. "Sky! I heard everything. Don't overwork. Do you want my help? Brother Arlo isn't allowing me to do anything. Media are spouting nonsense daily. Let me help you. We will..."

"Pretty Ryan! Relax. Take a deep breath... Good boy!... Do you remember where you are now?"

Ryan covered his jaws quickly remembering he wasn't in disguise and looked at Clara, Andy, Vice president. The latter was smiling looking at The Ryan Wilson.

Sky removed his hands. "Don't worry about me. I will ask for help if I need. Arlo isn't leaving my side so worry about Sigma."

Arlo exited her office at that time, Ryan ran away getting his glimpse, "I will see you at home."

Arlo shook his head resignedly and went to meeting with Sky hearing her say, 'He is soo cute.'

Sky continued her meetings. She had successfully transported the electronics required for the customers from different cities and imported some electronic back from country Y which considerably reduced the customer's complaint and netizens comments about Harley's late product deliveries.Gentleman-in-waiting as in Lady in waiting: a woman whose job is to take care of a queen or princess.
