Sky blinked twice, "So we have a Vacation house which is larger than the Country A's biggest palace and President's glazed palace?"
Arlo laughed hearing her, "Kind of"
Sky unwounded her arms around his waist and stood on toes to bribe before saying, "Since you said we are staying here for the weekend, I want to learn tennis."
"Your payment is not enough." Arlo said and took her towards upstairs.
Sky glanced towards the entrance, 'Is it too late to run away?' But Arlo was holding her hand.
Sky looked around as she went with him. Everything was enormous and luxuriant. As Arlo said, everything spoke how expensive they were.
Since only two were there, it was completely silent excluding her heels clacking and his shoes tapping sound unless they spoke.
After entering Arlo's room, Sky was dazed...
Everything was black and hues of black. Everything in the sense, every small thing she could see. Dr.a.p.es, duvet, pillow cover, armchair, doors, bedside cabinet everything was black or shades of it. Even his home slipper was black too.
The room appeared very elegant but the color...
'How can anybody feel cozy in this type of color?'
It looked mysterious.
Arlo had already entered the bathroom. Sky checked around in his room and found a picture of a girl near the bedside drawer.
'Should I get angry at him?' Sky glanced at the picture again and snorted.
'First that Dearie clown and now this.'
'I shouldn't forgive him for everything or else he will take me for granted. Hmph'
She went to the balcony and saw the surroundings. Even Harley mansion was out of the city and didn't have any building around, There were five more estates in two miles distance each.
But Smith mansion didn't have anything around and could only see tall buildings present in the city as tiny vertical lines.
Birds chirping sounds were pleasant to hear... She went back inside knowing Arlo was out.
"Arlo! How dare you keep that picture? Do you have a death wish? You should have at least asked to clean your room before you brought me here. Are there more photos that I don't know?"
Sky stood in akimbo glaring at Arlo who was in a black bathrobe rubbing his hair with a towel.
"Oh!"
Sky grounded her teeth, 'Oh for three questions.' "Oh? Fine, I will throw it away."
She took the picture going around the bed and was going towards the balcony, Arlo tried to take from her.
"Arlo, I'm not giving you... Why do you want this? Arlo...Leave me. Arlo..."
Arlo couldn't snatch scaring, the picture might tear apart and he couldn't bring himself to use force on her. Sky quickly moved her hand around without letting him hold on to the picture.
"Sky! Listen to me... Give me back..."
Arlo stopped playing with her hand and held her back of the head before pressing his lips on her. she fell backside on the bed.
The picture dropped from her hand soon. Her resolve shatters every time...
Arlo left her lips after some time and spoke once she caught the breath.
"That's my sketch. I have filmed it to keep safe." He said as his lips played with her slightly swollen lips.
"But I'm crying in that. Tears mar... Do you know to sketch?"
Seeing her displeasure about picture change to surprise, his lips tilted up. "Hmm, I learned it for you. This is how you were looking at me when I first saw you in the mall... Hospital rooftop doesn't count as we didn't see each other."
Sky wanted to hear completely but she was sent to the bathroom to take a bath. Seeing more white with black, Sky sighed and saw the bathtub which was prepared.
But it was unnecessarily huge. She had thought her tub was big but it was the three-quarter size to his tub and little deeper which made her be a little careful.
After going out in an oversized black bathrobe, she saw a bunny hoodie, shorts which were similar to her leisurewear which was present in Harley Mansion with a cute charactered home slipper.
She found a sticky note.
'In the kitchen. Find yourself.
-Hubby'
It wasn't always Sky who made things interesting, Arlo was learning well from her. She laughed looking at it. After changing, she left.
When she left and was going towards stairs, she paused to trace back to take another sticky.
'I have never had a moment of doubt.
You are my dearest one.
My reason for life.'
A rapturous smile appeared on her face as she read again a few times. After sticking it on her mobile, she went ahead and found one more.
'Our small stupid conversation
means so much more to me than
you will ever know.'
Her smile couldn't be more tender after reading it but it lasted only until she read the next sticky.
'I want to kiss you... And then
.
Kiss you again.'
'Flagrant Man' Sky thought to herself and moved on. Stickies served as a route to the kitchen. She had collected nearly twelve by the time she reached the kitchen.
She kept her mobile on the dining table before entering the kitchen as if she didn't get any messages. Seeing her nonchalance, even Arlo thought she must have missed them and didn't ask as it was out of his character.
It was only until he got bitten on his ear when he was helping her to sit.
After dinner, He took her near the infinity pool behind the mansion which provided a great view of the dark sky.
He explained what he had done to search her, how he had reacted for not knowing her relationship with David and what he had ordered.
When Sky heard he misunderstood her relationship with David, she didn't react much other than a sharp painful punch. But hearing his order of ruining Harley and Barton, she had smiled sweetly before speaking.
"Baby! Do you think you can easily turn Harley into ashes even after working with me in Harley?"
Even though she was damn very sweet, it had made him tongue-tied before responding. "My wife, That's was because of that brainless Ryan's group. Let me continue, you will understand."
Ryan would have cursed him aloud if he heard it.
She heard his words and nodded but she spoke again, "I would have hunted you down with my brother and Sam if you dared to touch my family."
Hearing her threating tone was fae good than her sweet voice of threat which practically icy cold.
