Chapter 4 - Brainless to Sensible questions

Sky reached Andy and shook their hands. Sky was looking at him but he was darting his eyes around to avoid eye contact with her and looked around where employees were staring towards them and his face fell.

He lost all the confidence which he mustered up to meet Sky.

Sky noticed the changes in his expression and turned behind and froze for a second. she realized her change in behavior was the reason for all this.

She ordered everybody, "Back to work." It made everybody disperse from the hall.

Andy couldn't help but to notice the well-fitted raisin colored purple suit which complimented her fair skin, she looked tall wearing black five-inch pumps, black handbag, and a blow-dried hair.

She had a strong presence of a CEO which made him feel like a shallow.

She looked exquisite than from the memories he had.

In the past, he always saw her in jeans and t-shirt with sports shoes on, jumping around with an innocent smile and asking hundreds of questions from brainless to sensible questions. Her change from just a year was too drastic for him to grasp.

Sky turned around and looked at him who was in a daze. Asked him whether he had lunch, Andy jolted back to senses and answered, "Not yet, I'm not hungry."

She said with a warm smile on her face, "I'm famished. Accompany me to lunch. Let's go." and she started walking towards the exit.

Andy contemplated her demure from domineering to amiable and started walking behind her.

She slowed down to walk with him and reached the restaurant next to the office and went in. Neither of them spoke anything until they sat on their seats.

Sky broke the silence and asked, "Let's order, what would you like to eat?"

Andy answered, "I'm okay with anything. You can order." without raising his head.

Sky looked at timid Andy and without giving him a hard time she orders a few dishes with a blue lagoon, a non-alcoholic drink.

Then she looked at Andy and contemplated for a few minutes and asked him, "What happened? Why are you looking for a job?"

He raised his head and replied, "I lost the job and couldn't find a one."

Sky saw him dejected and remained silent again. Later she diverted the topic to food as all the dishes and beverages were served.

"Food is here, let's eat." She gave him a wholehearted smile which warmed his heart.

They started eating and talking about the food taste which absolutely tasted amazing.

Andy slowly realized that those dishes were his favorite ones including the drink. It moistened his eyes.

He initially thought he would get mocked by her like his so-called best friends did but she was the same as a year ago, 'warm, gentle, considerate'.
