"I'm so embarrassed", Sky covered her face with her little hands while Elliot was climbing the stairs holding her in his arms.

"Why though?", He asked casually.

"What would she think of us", Sky wanted to hid in a hole.

"She'd think we make a good couple", Elliot said with a warm smile.

"Elliot", Sky gave him an angry look.

"Alright, I'd behave next", Elliot said obediently and put her on her bed.

"I want to go to college tomorrow", Sky said slowly.

"No", Elliot said sternly, giving her no room for discussion.

"But I'd be left behind", Sky was really worried as she's only been to the college for a day.

"You won't", Elliot held her hand tightly.

"Everyone knows you're a genius, so you don't have to worry", Elliot said reassuringly.

"But I really want to go", Sky said with a pitiful look.

Elliot couldn't handle it anymore.

"Wait for 2 more days atleast", Elliot gave up.

"Promise?", Sky asked happily.

"Yeah, promise", He held her pinky finger with his finger.

"Do you want something?", Elliot asked while pinching her adorable cheeks.

"Chocolate", Sky said instantly.

Elliot chuckled.

"Alright, I have to go to work. I'll bring your favourite chocolates on my way back", Elliot kissed her forehead and covered her with the blanket.

"I'll wait for you", Sky said with a sweet voice.

Elliot was in a trance for a second. He quickly gained his focus back.

'Wait Elliot, only 2 years are left', he thought to himself.

"I'll try to come back early", Elliot left after giving her another kiss on the cheek.

"Well, looks like he's really into you", Norah entered her room as soon as Elliot left.

"Were you spying on us?", Sky asked with displeasure.

"No, no. Why would I?", Norah said hurriedly.

"I guessed it by the way he looks at you and treats you", she tried to cover her lie.

Sky smiled.

'Yeah, he really treats me the best', she thought to herself.

"What happened to your legs by the way?", Norah pretended to be concerned about her.

"Oh, nothing important", Sky didn't want to start a conversation with her as she didn't like her vibe at all.

"Well, I want to ask you something, if you don't mind", Norah said.

"Yes, go ahead", Sky said casually.

"I have heard about your parents. Sorry for your loss but why are you staying with Aunt Emily since you're not even related by blood?", Norah asked with a smile trying to cover her disdain.

"Aren't you 18 years old already? Won't you leave this house? Or you gonna stay here forever?", she asked with a visible disgust in her eyes.

Sky was startled.

'I'm 18, should I leave this house?'

'Isn't it my home?'

Her heart ached at the thought of it.

It took her a while to reply.

"Actually I'm Elliot's fiancee so Aunt won't let me go even though I'm 18", Sky tried to look calm.

"Oh, poor aunt", Norah sighed.

"I've heard that she's very sympathetic towards you. She let you stay in her house and even made you his only brilliant son's fiancee. She's such a good woman", Norah tried to poison her mind.

"Aunt loves me alot, that's why she took me here when I was orphaned", Sky said calmly.

"It was not my aunt who asked Elliot to accept me, it was Elliot's own wish", Sky could feel the colours drowning from Norah's face.

"Elliot loves me the most", Sky said proudly.

Norah gritted her teeth. She couldn't succeed in her plan.

"How could you say it's love? Maybe it's sympathy or pity which he feels for that young orphaned girl", Norah didn't give up.

Sky's heart skipped a beat.

"Is it really love or sympathy which he feels for me?", she thought to herself.

Her heart ached.

"I'm sleepy, could you please close the door while leaving?", Sky turned her back towards Norah, trying to hide her tears.

"Yeah, sure", Norah said with a wide smile.

Finally she succeeded in her plan.

"You're brave Sky. If I were you, I'd have left this house long ago", Norah said sarcastically.

"Sleep tight", She said and left the room.

Sky couldn't get up for a long time. She tried to hold back her tears but they still fell out.

This.... This was her biggest fear.

Having no home and having no love.

"Is he really in love with me?", her heart ached just by thinking this.

"Should I leave this house? I'm sure I'm not a burden on Aunt but haven't I stayed here for so long? I'm 18 now. I should have left this place long ago. Norah was right", she thought to herself.

"But where will I go?", her eyes were full of tears.

"What did I do wrong to deserve this?", she cried her eyes out.

This was her biggest nightmare.

"Why God made me an orphan? Why couldn't I live with my parents like others? Why do I always have to worry about my home?? About a place to stay? Without a fear of getting kicked out of it?", she cried loudly.

She always had this nightmare that one day Aunt Emily and Elliot would be fed up of her and will throw her out of their house.

Where would she go then? She had no one to rely on.

She had no place to call home.

"I should start preparing something in advance in case if I ever get kicked out of this house", Sky smiled self deprecatingly.

"There's really a fine line between love and sympathy. How naive of you Sky, you never understood the difference", she sighed.

She called Lily after crying her heart out.

"Hey Lily! It's me, Sky", Sky tried to sound cool.

"Sky! What's up!", Lily asked excitedly.

"How are you now? What about your legs?", Lily got nervous remembering that incident.

"I'm good. I can walk a bit now. I'd be able to come to college after 2 days", Sky said suppressing her emotions.

"Lily I want to ask you for something", Sky said biting her lips.

"Yeah sure, go ahead", Lily said leisurely.

"Do you remember? You once told me about an international scholarship?", Sky asked slowly.

"Yeah, I remember", Lily said.

"Could you explain me it's procedure?", Sky asked with a low voice.

"Yes, I will", Lily said enthusiastically.

"But why would you need it? Aren't you staying with your family anyway? Won't you continue your studies here?", Lily was confused.

'Family?', Sky felt like someone stabbed her heart. 'Yes, they are my family but do they really consider me as a part of them?', she thought she could never find it out.

"I want to study abroad. I want a change", Sky tried to remain as calm as possible.

"Oh, I see", Lily said lazily.

"I'll send you the details. You scored pretty well before so it would be really easy for you to avail this opportunity", Lily was genuinely happy for her bestfriend.

"Lily, don't tell anyone about it just yet", Sky urged her to keep this matter to herself.

"Not even Elliot", she added.

"Ofcourse, I won't", Lily promised her.

"Alright, see you in the college. Take care", Sky hung up.

Her phone blinked after a short while.

Lily has sent her the whole information and procedure regarding the scholarship.

Sky took her laptop and started applying for it.

She was so engrossed in her work that she didn't even realise someone knocked on her door.

She closed her laptop immediately and looked at the person coming in.

    He rushed towards the door of his bedroom. He only sighed in relief once he looked at Sky's sleeping face. He couldn't help but move closer to her. "Baby?", he didn't want to disturb her sleep but he was afraid that something had happened to her. "You're back", Sky opened her eyes slowly. In fact, she didn't sleep a bit. Her mind was in a mess and it only calmed down once she heard Elliot's voice. However, she didn't look at him. "Yes", Elliot spoke tenderly. He couldn't help but feel strange as Sky didn't even spare him a single glance. "Are you angry because I'm late?", Elliot couldn't think of any other reason behind her anger. Sky slowly turned her eyes towards him. "No", she replied softly. Elliot could clearly see the difference in her behaviour. Her eyes which used to be filled with love and yearning for him were completely blank and devoid of emotions at that moment. Elliot's heart started beating erratically. He couldn't help but hold her face in his palms and

    "Are you the one who called me?", Sky asked impatiently. "Yes", Sean replied simply. He was busy in studying the face of his granddaughter which was similar to his son. He couldn't help but feel the urge to hug her. But he restrained himself as those beautiful big eyes reminded him of her mother whom he had disapproved since the beginning. "Who are you? What's your problem with Elliot?", Sky's faced turned red as she spoke. It had not been long since Elliot had returned back to her. She would rather die than letting anyone hurt him again. "Who do you think I am?", Sean Hill turned angry at her words. "Doesn't she recognize her own grandfather?", he thought to himself. "How would I know?", Sky was beyond annoyed at his question. Sean was silent for a moment. He couldn't help but clench his fists at the thought of Emily and Sebastian who didn't even tell Sky about her own grandpa. "I'm your grandfather", Sean finally broke the silence. "You what?", Sky was shocked. Her eye

    The next day. Elliot was holding Sky in his arms while staring at her heavenly gorgeous face. She was sleeping soundly in his strong arms.He couldn't help but smile when he recalled their last night. They were hella wild. He was still busy in his thoughts when Sky finally opened her eyes. "Good morning, love", Elliot said in an extremely affectionate tone. "Good morning", Sky replied shyly. She couldn't help but reprimand herself in her heart when she recalled her wildness and impatience from the last night. "What would he think of me?", she sighed. "What are you thinking?", Elliot asked lovingly while he caressed her beautiful face. Sky bit her lower lip. "Nothing", she spoke slowly as she lowered her gaze. Elliot seemed to understand what was going through her mind. "Look at me", he lifted her chin with his finger. Sky's face was as red as a tomato. Elliot couldn't help but pinch her cheeks. "Ouch! That hurts", Sky hissed in pain. "You're so adorable", Elliot laugh

    "Emily! I don't understand what's wrong with you. Aren't you afraid that you will break our little Sky's heart?", Sebastian asked in a serious tone while looking at his wife. Norah gritted her teeth at the mention of Sky. "Her days here are over", she smiled wickedly as she thought about her. Sebastian caught her malicious smile and he couldn't help but feel the urge to strangle her alive. He could have acted on his wish if not for his wife who was standing in front of him, adamant to protect Norah at any cost. Emily seemed to ignore Sebastian's words as she peeled another apple for Norah. "Eat more! It's good for the baby!", Emily gave a kind smile to Norah while caressing her stomach. Norah obediently ate whatever Emily placed on her plate. Sebastian couldn't help but punch the wall at the scene. Soon Elliot and Sky arrived. "What's the matter dad? Why did you call us in such a hurry?", Elliot asked while entering the house. He halted in his steps when he saw Norah sittin

    Elliot was still asleep when Sky opened her eyes. Her heart warmed when she noticed how he had placed his arms around her in his sleep. She looked at his handsome face and her heart began to flutter. She wanted to lock this moment forever. She extended her hand to caress his handsome face when Elliot suddenly opened his eyes. "You're awake", Sky said softly with a deep smile. "Yes", Elliot smiled back at her. Even though he didn't remember her, it was still good to wake up to such a beautiful scene. She was just heavenly. "When did you wake up?", Elliot asked in a raspy voice as he had just woken up from his deep slumber. "It's been two hours", Sky replied with a grin. "Why didn't you wake me up?", he asked confusedly. "I wanted to look at your sleeping face. It makes my heart warm, it reminds me of the initial days of are marriage", Sky blushed lightly while explaining to him. "We are still newly married. It hasn't been long since we tied the knot", Elliot smiled warmly

    Elliot was heartbroken when he heard that. "I'm innocent! I've never touched her", he tried to explain his innocence to Sky. It had only been a few days and Sky was already special to him. He didn't want any misunderstanding to sow discord between them. Sky blinked lightly before turning her head towards him. "Are you telling the truth?", she asked with much hesitation. "Yes!", Elliot nodded helplessly. Elliot was waiting for her to say something. It took her few minutes to reply. "I once made a mistake by not trusting you. I would not repeat that mistake", she said slowly as she began to sit on the bed. "But remember one thing Elliot Frost!", she looked at him with a deadly gaze, "the day I found out you cheated on me or got any other woman pregnant, I'll myself castrate you and make you an eunuch", she turned her head once she completed her sentence. Elliot felt chills all over his body. He found it funny as well as scary at the same time. "Would you really do something l

    Sky was shocked to see her standing at her doorway. "How dare you come here?", she asked hatefully as she walked towards her. "I came here to take Elliot back with me", Norah said confidently as she looked at Elliot behind Sky. "Let me see who can take him from here", Sky said coldly as she looked at Norah. "Don't think I forgot what you did to us. The wounds are still fresh", Sky said coldly as she walked towards her. "I didn't do anything. Hey Elliot! Tell her I'm the one who saved you", she said coquettishly as she looked at Elliot. Elliot was in a deep thought at that moment. He didn't realize when Sky reached Norah. "You dare talk to my husband like that!", she said angrily as she raised her hand and gave her a tight slap. Crisp... The sound was very audible. Elliot was stunned as he watched the scene. He ran towards Sky and grabbed her hands. Norah thought that he will reprimand Sky for hurting her. "Elliot! See! She slapped me so hard. My face hurts", she cried pi

    She was afraid as if she wouldn't be able to see his face once she closed her eyes. Her heart ached at the thought that he forgot about her. But she was not an ungrateful person. It was enough for her that he was by her side at that moment. No one would have survived such an incident. It was a miracle for him to dodge death and return to her safe and sound. She was content with having him beside her. She was also sure that sooner or later, she would make him remember her. She lifted her head up from the pillow as she came closer to his face. He was sleeping peacefully. Sky couldn't help but kiss him gently on his lips. Only she knew how much she had missed him. She didn't want to disturb his sleep but she couldn't help and kiss him for another 10 minutes. She only left his lips once she became breathless. "What are you doing Sky? He just came back and he didn't even remember you. He would surely think of you as a pervert if you kept doing such things", she rebuked herself

    "Would you tell me what exactly happened to me? How did I end up in this situation?", he asked while caressing her hair. "Sure", Sky said slowly while closing her eyes, as if she was experiencing her worst nightmare. "We just got married and went to Zurich to spend our honeymoon. We went to the mountains for hiking when a person suddenly appeared in front of us. He killed the tour guide and also shot me twice. He shot you while you were trying to save me. You couldn't bear to see me in that state so you threw him off the mountain but he held you tightly, resulting in both of you falling in the river below the mountain", Sky summed up the whole incident. Elliot frowned as he listened to her carefully. His heart even skipped a beat when she mentioned that she was shot by the serial killer. "Have you healed?", he asked in a concerned tone as he looked at her. "Yes!", Sky nodded while caressing his chest. "What about you?", she asked while looking at him. "Yes! When I woke up, I c
