Xavier's pov:

Everything just went amazing today. I talked and apologized to Mimi. After knowing the truth about Maya , I apologized to her for my behaviour. My sister forgave me. All thanks to Maya for this. The Dinner was something that brought me back all the good memories of me, Dan , Lucas and Mimi together. Having Maya with us just made it even more memorable.

Lucas shared some work related issues with me and even I took his advice over certain deals. We talk to each about work , whenever we feel a need of suggestions regarding certain matters.

Apart from having a law firm, Lucas also runs a successful chain of hotels and restaurants. Even though, he has people managing everything at different levels, still it sometimes gets difficult for him to make time for Dan. Even she herself is a lot busy with her work. But, still both of them are matured enough to know each other's condition. Even though, work becomes their priority sometimes, but,they very well know how to take time out for each other.

They have the perfect professional as well as personal life balance between them. Both of them take interest in each other's work and help each other out with various issues. Most importantly love between them keeps them motivated towards their career as well as towards each other. Like normal couples even they have arguments and disagreements. But, they have this beautiful concept with them -

"When one person shouts or argues in anger, the other should keep quite . When his anger cools down , then the other person talks. Because when two people argue with the same intensity and anger, the argument turns into a fight that never resolves easily."

It means that when both the people argue with the same passion, the argument turns into fight. Being quite for sometime infront of our partner, doesn't make us any less. It just sometimes proves our maturity.

So, whenever Dan is angry, Lucas waits till her anger subsides and then he states his point. Same goes with Dan whenever Lucas loses his cool over something.

Above all , they both are really matured people who respect and love each other so much that, they only know how to argue not to fight.

We had a few drinks at the bar I have at my mansion . And Lucas being Lucas, got drunk only after a few drinks. I tucked him to bed in Dan's room on second floor.

I looked at him while he was sleeping. He, for sure was a devil. But, while sleeping, he really looked like a peaceful saint. I'm really lucky to have a best friend like him who stands by me everytime . He is the brother, I never had. I really thank God that I have him with me at every point of my life, having my back and being my support.

My eyes fell on the beautiful collage in Dan's room. These guys look so much in love even in pictures. Sometimes, I'm jealous of them. They have a person to whom they can go after a tiresome day , talk , laugh , cry and express emotions without any fear of being judged by the other. Above all , they have someone who loves them with the same intensity and selflessness as the other.

I went to call Dan in Maya's room. The lights of her room were still on. When I reached her room, I saw a sight that pleased my eyes to a very good extent.

Maya and Dan were laughing their hearts out and rolling on the bed. I stood there for a minute or two, but none of them seemed to notice me .

I cleared my throat to gain their attention. That's when Maya noticed me . Her laughter died and she straightened herself. I didn't like it when she lost her real self around me.

"Dan, we had a few drinks and Lucas got drunk as usual. I made him sleep in your room. Even you go and sleep now . It's getting late. " I said to her.

"Ya! It's getting late. I should head to bed now. " She said and turned towards Maya.

"Good night Maya. Sleep well coz tomorrow you'll need a lot of energy. " She said and hugged her.

Dan hugged me and said, "Good night Brother."

I kissed her forehead and said, "Good night princess. Sleep well."

Dan went to her room and now, it was just me and Maya.

She was looking everywhere but me. I finally broke the silence.

" Have you taken your medicines?"

" No... I forgot." She replied as if it's normal for her to do that.

" Oh yeah! Even I forgot that you're too busy to take care of your health."

She muttered something but, I couldn't hear that.

" You said something?"

She vigorously shook he head in No.

" What are you waiting for? Go, get the medicines. Or you want me to feed them to you."

She quickly moved towards the side table near the bed and took out the medicines from the drawer. She hastily ate them and then , chocked on the water. I went and sat beside her. I began rubbing her back till she was back to normal.

" You really need a babysitter with you. I'll arrange it till tomorrow." I said looking at her.

" You're joking, right?" She asked.

" Do I look like I'm joking?"

She was shocked for a moment and then said, " I'm sorry. I'll take my medicines on time from now on. Please don't bring a babysitter. I'm not a baby. Please, everyone will laugh at me. "

" You understood that Dan was joking only in a second. But, you couldn't guess that I was kidding." I said laughing at her.

She was shocked and angry at the same time.

" You can't mock me like that ." She said .

" Is it? I definitely can make fun of you whenever I want."

" Was this written in the contract too?" She asked .

I understood that the fun went wrong.

"Hey, I was just trying to be normal with you. Don't take it otherwise."

" Ohh" she said.

I started feeling drowsy . And, before I collapse on her bed , I decided to go my room.

" I guess the drinks are getting on to me now. I'll just go to my room." I went from there.

Maya's pov:

After , so many days I had a good time. Dan is such a fun loving girl. She shared so many stories of her childhood times . My stomach was aching by laughing so hard. We didn't realise that it was getting late untill Mr. Adams came. He even mocked me for not taking medicines. He was drunk a bit and before he could just retire in my room, he went to his room. Thinking of the beautiful today's beautiful moments, I slept with a smile on my face after a long time.

Xavier's pov:

The sunlight peeping through the window woke me up . I felt a mild headache. I didn't drink much yesterday but, I always get a headache next morning. I freshened up and decided to ditch gym today . My headache won't allow me to do any exercise without getting irritated. I checked my cabinet only to find that my pain killers have passed on their date of expiry. I decided to send someone to the pharmacy store and get some of them. Otherwise, I will be irritating the whole day.

A knock disturbed me. " Come in." I said.

Renee , one of the maids , came with a tray in her hand.

"Madam , sent this herbal tea for you. " She said keeping the tray on the table.

Definitely, Dan must have made it. Because Mimi is never good with tea. But , how did she get up this early? I thought because Dan was never an early riser. And on weekends, she'll get up in the afternoon and wish Good Morning to everyone.

" Say my Thanks to Dan. "

"But, she is still sleeping Sir." She told me.

" Then , Mimi made this? " I asked.

" No Sir. Mrs. Adams made it . Your wife." She told me.

I was shocked that she remembered about me drinking and sent me this tea to reduce my hangover. I felt even more guilty of my words now. Even , after all these things, she took care of me. I'll definitely go and talk to her today.

" Okay, you may go." I told Renee.

I drank the tea . Honestly, I'm a pure coffee person. But, this tea seemed soothing. Today was Sunday . I have a meeting today , but, that too in the evening. So, till evening, I was free. I decided to read a book . I like reading books in my free time . They, kind of , divert your mind from the things and ease your mood. I went to the library and opened the door.

There , I saw Maya reading a book . She was so engrossed in the book that she didn't see or hear me opening the door.

I wanted to have a talk with her. So, I quitely went and sat in the chair beside her. Still, she didn't seem to acknowledge my presence. So finally, I poked her hand with my fingers.

Maya's pov:

I was never an early riser. But, my parents used to shout at me a lot whenever I used to wake up late. So, with a fear of getting their scoldings, I start with my day early in the morning. I know , no one will say anything to me here, but still I can't take the risk.

When, I went in the kitchen to get myself a coffee , I remembered that yesterday both Lucas and Mr. Adams had a few drinks at the bar. They, for sure, will have a hangover when they get up. I made a herbal tea that Daisy told me to have whenever I'll have a headache or a hangover. I never drank alcohol because my parents never allowed me to. But, I guess that this tea will help them both in their headache.

I made my coffee and also prepared the herbal tea alongside. I asked, Renne, the house help, to whom my Anna had introduced me earlier, to give the herbal tea to both of them.

She told me that both Lucas and Dan, never get up before afternoon on weekends. So, I asked her to give it to Mr. Adams.

I had my coffee and decided to read a book in the Library.

It was amazing book which was a love story between two people who are completely opposite to each other, but , managed to prove the saying Opposites Attract true. I've always believed in this concept but I guess, it won't work in my case.

I was reading the book when something poked me near my elbow. I thought, it was an insect . I'm hell scared of insects.

I screamed as loud as I could .

Suddenly , there was a hand over my mouth stopping me from making noise. That's when , I realised that it's not something, it's someone.

I started to throw my hands and legs in the air.

Then , a voiced startled me saying , "Stop making noises Maya. No one's kidnapping you. I am Xavier. Don't freak out." It was Mr. Adams.

That's when I calmed down. My heart was racing with so much speed that I thought it would come out of my ribs and start bouncing on the floor. I smiled at my thought.

I looked up at Mr. Adams only to see that he was looking at me or I should say staring at me with his hand still over my mouth. I even understood that he had held my both hands with his other hand. I started making noise . He still, didn't seem to care about caging me at that moment.I started moving on my chair.

That's when , his gaz broke and he asked, "What happened now?"

I again made noise with my mouth. That's when , he realised that he had caged me with his one hand and his other hand was still over my mouth.

He then, removed his hand from my mouth and we both sat properly on both the chairs.

He looked at me for a second before bursting into laughter . I looked at him for a moment and thought Why does he keep the poker face 24/7, when he has such a pretty smile and beautiful laugh?

I reminded myself to be in my limits and asked him, "Why are you laughing?"

He kept quiet for a minute and then laughed again. I was pretty sure that he was laughing at me but I wanted to hear his explanation. I stayed quiet till his laughing session was over.

"Sorry, but you looked really funny right now. I just poked you with my finger and you thought someone was kidnapping you. You started throwing all your hands and legs in the air. The whole scene looked like a crazy one." He said laughing.

"You shouldn't laugh like this from someone's scared."

"I'm sorry about that Maya." He said.

"By the way , what are you doing in the library?" He asked.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't know that you will be coming here. And, sorry for entering the library without your permission . Anna told me that I can read any book from the library. So, I came here . I am sorry . I'll just keep the book back and go to my room."

I got up from my chair to keep the book back in the shelf but, a hand tugged my wrist stopping me from moving forward.

I looked towards Mr. Adams with a questioning look on my face.

" Why do you always have to think so bad about me?" He asked looking disturbed.

"I don't understand."

"I just asked you out of curiosity that what were you doing or I rather meant what were you reading in the library? But, you seem to take it otherwise. Did I ask you to get out of the library?" He said .

I kept quiet hoping an hour of scolding to come on my share today.

"Answer me. " He asked in a bit louder tone than his previous one.

Xavier's pov:

I was asking her to answer my questions. But, rather she was listening to me as if a father is scolding his daughter for eating more candies.
