“What?” Amelia's voice went off the grid as she murmured breathlessly, “You like your boss?” She gawked incredulously, her mind failing to comprehend what she had heard her friend say. “Yes, I think so,” Skylar hesitated her words, “I cannot keep him out of my mind these days, and I know it is more than just being concerned about the affairs of a boss,” She let out a weary sigh, her head hanging languidly on the edge of the chairs. “You are kidding, right?" A flippant smile curved Amelia's lips as if to compel Skylar to give up on her silly joke, “You are just playing around, right?” she teased. “I wish I was, Amy. I cannot even get out of my head these days, and I keep feeling intense emotions of wanting that I shouldn't feel for someone like him. It might be more intense than you think,” she pinched her lips with her teeth, her eyes brimming with unspoken frustration. “Wait, are you serious?” Amelia gawked in disbelief, as she stared at Skylar as if waiting for an explanat

As the video call connected, the screen flickered to life, revealing the grinning face of Leo as his eyes twinkled with mischief, “You seem to be in a great mood,” he peered at Ivan, who seemed to be enthusiastic about what he was doing in his kitchen. “I am just as happy as every other day,” his lips stiffened even if he had the urge to smile, as he carefully cut the apple placed on a chopping board into sizes, “Now spill it. You called because you saw something,” he flashed a knowing look at Leo, who chuckled instantly. “For a moment my heart dropped when I saw the news,” he leaned back in his chair, the casual setting of his sleek, modern office, contrasting sharply with the deluxe kitchen visible in the background of his friend’s screen. “Why?” Ivan began to cut the kiwis he had before him too, his eyes unfocused on the huge MacBook he had placed on the countertop of the kitchen. “I thought you were dating that sexy chick for real. You two looked so into one another the way

The moment Ivan hung up the call, his heart began to race through thoughts of what to do, the more he thought of the agitation in her voice which struck him deeply, her voice echoing in his mind.He quickly made his way up to his room, grabbed his coat and keys, and made his way to his parking lot instantly. Within a few minutes, he was in his sleek, black car, speeding through the bustling city streets, his thoughts racing faster than the traffic around him.When he arrived at the hospital and made his way into the huge, gigantic building, he spotted her instantly at the reception desk, sitting down on one of the chairs there as she held a paper in her hands, with tears rolling down her cheeks. The sight of her like that caused a sharp pain to pierce through his chest, a pain he couldn’t fully understand but felt deeply nonetheless.He approached her quietly, his footsteps soft against the linoleum floor, but the whiff of his sweet scent, which could not be missed with any other per

“Skylar, what are my schedules for tomo….” Ivan paused on his words, his brain jolting him back to the realization again, for the nth time, that he had forgotten just within a few hours that she was not there with him. He had gone on his business trip alone. He sat in his plush leather seat in his private plane, his thoughts far from the upcoming business trip as his gaze constantly drifted to the empty seat opposite him where she usually sat, meticulously organizing his schedule and handling every detail before they even landed. He would usually be busy reviewing every document that needed to be acknowledged and corrected from spreadsheets, to presentations and emails as well before every meeting, on the next day. However, he decided to grant her wish not to accompany him on the trip, giving her the chance to be with her mother, and to pull her mind together from all of her pain. Still, he couldn't get used to her not being around. Upon landing at the bustling Chicago airport,

Ivan made his way towards the conference room the next morning, as he rubbed his right hand into his palm and adjusted his tie, which suddenly seemed as if it was starting to tighten around his neck. He didn't have a good night's sleep as usual, and spent the entire night working till dawn. The first meeting, which was a board meeting with the directors and executives of HAVAN construction, seemed to drag on as he began to get increasingly grouchy before the endless presentations ended, and he found himself fumbling with notes that Skylar would have seamlessly provided and marked out. The site visits he made around the city to HAVAN subsidiaries were extremely tiring, and he was so stressed out having to do every single thing himself. He struggled to find important statistical figures for each company because he had personally not done it in a long time, which Skylar would have effortlessly supplied as a report if she had been there, while informing him of the next thing to do.

Early the next morning, Ivan sat behind his office desk, his eyes heavy, and his mood subduedly wistful, barely rested from his long trip after arriving hours ago. The meetings and negotiations he had gone for had all resulted in success, but he was left with piles of paperwork on his desk and emails which he had begun to check out and review endlessly since he arrived. Knowing Skylar would not have had the idea that he had arrived already because he arrived a day earlier than planned, he picked up the phone on his desk, and dialed the table phone of his substitute secretary, Taylor. ‘He had better start getting other people's help,’ he reminded himself.As soon as the call went through, he spoke authoritatively, “This is Mr. Hamilton. I need you to resume working for me immediately this morning,” Upon hearing what she had been told on the phone by Ivan, Taylor freaked out in shock, her jaws dropping in shock. As soon as she dropped the call, she stood on her feet instantly still

“The way you come here in the morning these days, makes me want to believe the rumours. Everything really okay with you and Ivan?” Kali's gaze weighed on Skylar's face, who stood in front of her to order a cup of orange drink and cakes. “Yeah,” a modest smile curved Skylar's lips, her eyes twitching with the apprehension that danced in them, “I guess things change after all,” there was a lack of enthusiasm in her voice. “You sure?” Kali’s questioning eyes finally darted away from hers as she began to prepare her order. “To be, Kal, I have no idea of what is going on with me now. I… I… just feel… numb,” Skylar confessed tiredly, almost slouching against the counter of the café. Ever since Ivan and Taylor had left, she had been so restless and uneasy about whatever could be going on in his mind. Not to talk of the strange message that she received the day before, which was devoid of the triflingness the message of a usual random unknown sender would send. ‘Someone knew what happe

‘I am setting you up on a blind date, Sky. Get ready,’ Amelia's words rang in Skylar's mind again as she casually made her way into the company, ready for the day's work even if she wasn't sure of her place in the company anymore. It had been three days since Ivan suddenly announced that Taylor would be working with him, and she couldn't even tell anymore if things were not working perfectly, as she thought it would be between the two, since Taylor had no experience, and Ivan liked things done perfectly. She had barely talked to him in those three days except for the usual pleasantries when he sauntered into the office to meet her sitting there already, and it felt like she had lost her significance at every indifference from him. It seared pain in her heart.It had also changed her thoughts and perspective that she could never be replaced, as she had heard other workers subconsciously program into her mind. She could definitely be. On a whim at that. Skylar didn't know she could

Skylar made her way into Ivan's office towards the afternoon during his few minutes' break after the first half of the day, when Taylor had also left the office to take a break, to be free from the suffocating walls of remaining in a secretary's office without having anyone to talk to. She missed sharing an office with others. But, as usual, Skylar could not leave her office to eat lunch because she was not used to having that kind of food routine, even if she barely ate breakfast. Most of the food she ate was either dinner or late lunches in the evening. “Mr. Hamilton,” she called as she approached his desk, her smooth loafers gliding over the polished floor of his office. “Yes, Ms. Bailey,” Ivan's voice came as a casual response without looking up, and Skylar almost froze on that spot, her breath eluding her when she heard what he had called her. ‘Ms. Bailey?! And not Skylar?!’ she wanted to scream. It took her so much willpower and strength not to break down at that m

“So who is this guy that wants to meet me?” Skylar was sitting in front of the dresser in her room after she got home that day, and staring at her reflection through the mirror while speaking with Amelia on the phone. “He is someone you know,” came Amelia's answer from the other side of the phone. “Someone I know?” The line of Skylar's brow jumped in surprise to hear that, as she tried to do a quick thinking, about how many people Amelia knew that she also knew. “Yes. He is from our college,” Amelia dropped another hint. “You say he is from our college and wants to meet me? How?” She blinked with incredulity, unable to comprehend how someone from their college suddenly wanted to meet her when it had been more than three years since they left. “Yes. It is Carlos Gibson,” Amelia disclosed. “Carlos Gibson?” Skylar's voice laid an incredulous emphasis, as her eyes grew impossibly wide, her forehead wrinkling in an overwhelming surprise. “Yeah,” Amelia's voice came casually. “Wh.
