Sweet, melodious song was playing, shimmery sunlight was peeping through the casement and casting it's beam of light over a beautiful girl, who was standing by the window, busy with her sculpting, as if playing with her beautiful long fingers on marble with chisel and letting her hair flutter free in the gentle breeze, which came out of her loose low bun.

Noah was capturing this all with his keen silvery eyes and was hypnotized in the moment never wishing to wake, he wanted to hold this point of time forever, thinking how can be someone so beautiful, so riveting, when all she is doing is work, how can her manner be so different?

Suddenly Sophia felt chills running down her spine and she halted at her work and without intermission of a second she turned her head in lightening speed to find no one, although her work space's door was slightly open.

She took slow steps towards the door and peeping her head she looked left and right but found no one there, getting in she again shut close her door and went back to her work.

Noah standing outside smirked at her action, peeking like a kitten. He came to the gallery to settle up some portion of the deal. Although, that was all kind of excuses to be anywhere a stone's throw away to Sophia.

After he was done with settlement, director asked him if he should call Sophia for him. But he refused and he himself said would go there to meet her.

When reached there he raised his hand to knock over the door but concluded not to and stopped mid-way, and tried his luck by pushing it and it was unlatched and when door was half open he saw a capativating scene infront of his hawk like eyes which softened as soon as they found her there, engrossed in work with sunrays falling over her fair skin and chestnut hairs, seemed as if some mythical fairy wraped in white maxi dress reaching her ankles.

He noiced, after sometime that she has perceived his presence and ceased her work she was doing.

He thought 'sharp senses darling.' And smirking he walked at the direction of director's cabin and only turned back to find her peeking like a little kitten.

When lunch time came, she sat on her table and was having sandwiches for lunch. She was not fan of a healthy diet, specially according to everyday hustle and bustle she does.

Sophia had her lunch all alone as Charlotte didn't turn up today, she had some personal issues to resolve.

When wrapping her leftovers, she heard her phone vibrating, picking it up from table cornor she found it to be Lisa's call. Recieving it, she answered "Hello."

To which Sophia heard from the other end "Hey my sweetheart! You called me yesterday? I am so so sorry, I have such a busy schedule and I really-"

"Lizzie, it's alright. I called you casually. I wanted to see you. I have something to discuss." Sophia replied her in extremely soft voice.

"Is it? Fine, I'll meet you today." Lisa replied.

"No. It's okay Lisa. We will meet but once you are free."

"Actually, I happen to be free today during sundown, and I am going out with Samuel. Why don't you join us?" Lisa requested in soft voice.

"No. Not at all, you will be meeting Samuel after so many days and you want me to tag along and be the third wheal. No, absolutely not happening. into the bargain I don't have time." Sophia rejected her request in stern voice.

"Please Sophia for one day give one hour of yours to us? And just for one hour you can be with us. Samuel will like it, it has been ages since three of us hanged together?"

"I'll have to ask director." Sophia replied not able to reject more of her entreaty.

"Go and ask." Lisa said back to her sheerful mood.
