Chapter 565 - Aaru

Sky finished her work soon in Harley and went to Bas.e.m.e.nt one inside the underground office to meet five. After talking with all, she invited them formally for Jai's engagement.

Clark demonstrated his game to Sky and asked for her suggestions and ideas. Sky didn't know much about video games. But she could tell the fluidity and transmission between moves of the image was excellent.

She gave suggestions about some smaller add on details. Then Maxwell left her near the car where Arlo was waiting.

She had become like an automated robot without much reaction to anything other than thinking something blankly looking in the air.

After reaching the Harley mansion, Sky saw Jai's car and bolted inside to see Jai and Loran.

She spent most of the free time with them the whole week as they arranged everything for engagement. She also managed to cheer David who was blaming himself for complicating Sky's life.

Sky hardly spent time with Arlo other than in the office and sleeping in their room. For lunch, she would take him outside with others than cooking in the kitchen.

After confirming all the required items arrived on Saturday, Jai sent everyone to bed early. Sky went to her room with Arlo. Both settled on the bed before Sky apologized to him for not spending time with him in the past days.

Arlo knew she was feeling insecure after hearing Mrs.Moore. He could note the small changes in her when they left Town A. But by spending more time with the Barton family, especially with brothers, she was changing back to normal. So he didn't ask her to spend time or request anything.

So he accommodated her and helped her whenever she needed it. Knowing that he didn't mind and even understood her, she bit him instead of saying thank you or anything. Arlo was used her biting, he enjoyed rather than getting annoyed.

"You have arranged outfits for everyone, where is yours?" Arlo asked curiously.

"Oh!" Sky faced him, "My husband will pick a dress for me. When I'm taking care of everyone, shouldn't you take care of me?"

Arlo just smiled. It was true but he didn't pick a dress from her wardrobe, he ordered a dress matching his suit which Sky prepared for him.

"Sleep! You have a long day tomorrow." Arlo said and slept with her to let her rest.

All woke up at the usual time on the engagement day. Sky also woke up early since she was going to the villa with Arlo and Loran.

Sky had ill.u.s.trated their ideas and requirements to Rony. So he had personally gone for arrangements with few workers. With them, Sky and Loran's help, they finished all the decoration by four in the afternoon.

Arlo took care of room arrangements as they would be staying overnight in the villa. Sky continued to check on other miscellaneous things as guests started to arrive. Arlo handed the list to the helper to direct the guest to their rooms.

Soon Jai came with all. Sky asked about the decoration. Since Jai liked Wisteria flower, Sky had planned them to arrange as a flower tunnel which would also give the best view for the photoshoot.

Samara likes a few kinds of roses, so Sky used them with other flowers as background for them and decorated inside the complete villa including lightly in the rooms. Color arrangements were taken care of by Rony with Sky's assistance.

Jai pinched her cheeks, "Don't you think you have spent too much on small function?"

Sky pouted, "If we call many others, we will celebrate like this so why can't we make it the same for ourselves? WE are important. Hmph."

She behaved like angered but next second it changed and whispered to Jai, "Brother Jai! Do you want one room or a separate room for you and sister-in-law?"

Without letting him knock on her head, Sky hid behind Arlo. "We will think about it after the engagement. See you." Sky waved and giggled looking at Jai.

"I will see you later." Jai said and went to his room as others went to their respective rooms.

Sky was dragging Arlo towards the entrance to check once when a lady entered the villa. She was tall, fair and beautiful. Sky saw her smile growing wide looking at Arlo.

"Aaru!"

Sky didn't know whether to laugh or puke. But she gritted her teeth when she hugged Arlo who was looking at her.

Arlo pushed her off in one hand.

He saw Sky's expressionless face looking at them as the lady started chattering herself. Sky looked at Arlo and raised her brows to which he responded "Some random distant relative." He didn't even know her name.

Before Sky could nod, that lady spoke, "Hey, How am I random? Aaru, when will stop talking bitter?"

She then turned to Sky who was in leisurewear and her hair tied into a knot for working easy. "You! Get a glass of water. Leave."

Sky's lips twitched hearing her order. She stopped Arlo from speaking and signaled a helper to get water as she stood rooted, hearing her chatter.

Arlo didn't speak a word and whenever he tried to leave, that lady would hold his hand irritating him. Sky heard Baby, Dear, Handsome like words from her to Arlo.

Suddenly her attention changed to Sky, "You! Why are you still standing here? Go and work."

Sky pursed her lips, she took a glass of water from the helper and poured it on her head. "Miss. Here is your glass of water."

Arlo found it hard not to chuckle. It raged the lady, "You... You! How dare you?"

"Oh! Did I make a mistake? I thought you wanted to cool your head. I didn't know you wanted for drinking." Sky said with a smile pissing her off.

Her makeup had started to smudge making her look even more pathetic. Sky heard laughter behind that lady and peeked. Sam and others were the audiences of Sky's spectacular show.

"Sister Sky! You are really insane." Clark said as he came towards her, Sky stopped. "Wait there!"

Then she turned to the lady, "Miss, I hope you can go to your room now. I don't want anybody to get scared looking at your face. Arlo may get nightmares tonight since he already glanced at you. So please."

After hearing her, Clark purposefully came and saw the lady before bursting into laughter. That lady who was in rage realized about her makeup and complained Arlo, "Aaru! Look at her. Throw her out. How dare she make fun of me. Fire her now."

"Aaru? Ms.Sky, your husband's name can't be more horrible than that." Peter showed an animated face to her and went towards his room.
