At least it didn't feel like living alone anymore, for Sofia. After the day Xander promised, he was true to his word, he didn't yell at her or ignore her like she did not exist. They were going pretty well. Sofia had continued her college after one week of marriage and it had been normal.

Her friends did ask her questions like why wasn't she happy or why was she back so early. But she dismissed them every time. In her family, marriage ceremonies weren't too big so friends weren't invited. Only family was involved from both sides so all she could do for her best friend was to explain everything to her, but she didn't want to tell her and then gain pity looks from her. She didn't want that.

In past month, Xander had been cooperative with her or at least he tried to be. They would eat together, have coffee together or even watch TV together but both were still not at the stage of being friends. They would make small conversations also. And when Sofia sensed that he was annoyed or in no mood to talk, she would leave him alone to avoid any arguments.

In this small time, Sofia realized how sophisticated and conservative he was. He remained himself all the time and he wasn't also much of a talker but he was a good listener though. She also noticed that he was a serious sort of person who smiled occasionally. In past one month, he might have just smiled twice or thrice at her. But maybe that was because he didn't even know her and perhaps he was more outgoing with people he knew.

His attire and aura showed nothing else but arrogance and elegance. He seemed to be arrogant and egoistic but once she started talking to him, she realized that he was extremely polite person. And Sofia didn't know if she should feel lucky to having witnessed him showing emotions like when he yelled at her. Because he never yelled, not at anyone. He would just furrow his brows and frown at something he didn't like, but he never yelled.

Xander helped her with her school assignments and even taught her somethings that she had difficulty in understanding. What they both ignored in past one month was the sour topic of one's brother and one's ex fiancé. Not even once did they discuss it and she didn't think there was any need to.

Sofia didn't know how he would react if she brought up the topic because he seemed to get annoyed over small things. So she avoided the topic and she didn't have any desire to discuss her ex fiancé with her husband. She at least knew it was wrong. No matter what the circumstances were but he was her husband now and no husband would want his wife to talk about any other man. Or maybe that wasn't the case and Xander just didn't give a shit.

She couldn't pin point his personality, she couldn't describe it to anyone. So when Veronica, her best friend asked about her husband she didn't know how to explain it to her.

"So, when do I get to meet him?" Asked Veronica while they walked towards the exit. Veronica had her own car so she could drive but Sofia did not. Xander's family chauffeur picker her up daily and dropped too.

"I don't know V," she shrugged in nonchalance. She knew Xander would not like to meet her friends. No matter how good he was, they were still just acquainted yet.

"Why? Can't I at least see him, his photo?" She frowned. Veronica understood why Sofia was so conservative so she understood why she couldn't do that.

"I guess you have seen him on tabloids." Sofia smiled sweetly at her. Xander was a rich person, young, handsome and owner of family oriented business. So it wasn't a surprise that he was famous.  The reason why Xander was the CEO was that he was the eldest son, he was two years older than Salah so his father handed him the company.

"Seriously? Tabloids? You could have told me that he was a celebrity Sofia! I sometimes think I am not even your BFF." She crossed her arms over her chest and frowned.
