A Dance with the Billionaire #JustWriteIt

Chapter 23(unedited)

Anaya's P.O.V

I must admit, it wasn't easy to walk passed all these glares once back to my department. I somehow managed to do it as I'm not that weak anymore. It is now three in the afternoon and my first day is finally over. I searched for Andrew and John but they were nowhere to be seen. I walked to the elevator and entrees it. It wasn't so full as most of the employees end at five.
I was now on the ground floor and was walking to the exit as I saw Summaiyah aka Miss Bimbo walking in the office with her bodyguards carrying dresses from famous designers. I couldn't care much as it was none of my concern.
"Baby!" She screamed looking in my direction.
What the...! This reaction stopped as she ran past me and hugged James. James eyes landed in mine. I looked away, this only made James and Summaiyah kiss. Keep walking,it's not supposed to affect you. I kept on walking and heard Andrew's voice.
"Hey Anaya! Wait right there." He shouted.
'Andrew, I hate you!' I muttered under my breath. Seriously, I would have been in my car driving back but unfortunately, our dear Andrew had other plan. Just great!
I turned around and saw him talking to James. I couldn't figure out that James was pissed of and Summaiyah's facial expression was not a pleasant one too. After what I could say five minutes, both brothers were done talking.

"So, what were you talking about?" I asked him.
"Stuffs and all. Come lets go." He said as he snaked his hand around my waist. Weird.
"Why was your sister in law carrying so many dresses?" I asked him once we were outside the office.
"What? Her? You are my sister in law." He said and smirked. My elbow immediately found its way in his chest.
"Seriously dude?" I replied him a little pissed.
"What man? You hit like a man. Ouch!" He said as he massaged his chest with his hand.
"Duh, kind of you deserved it?" I said.
"I deserved what? This Greek god body I have is like a priceless sculpture. It takes two and a half freaking hours to make this!" He said gesturing his abs.
"Bro, come on. Stop being a woman." I said as we reached my car. "Anyway, why did you call me?" I asked.
"Drive me home, please." He said giving me puppy eyes.
"Sure." I said as I opened the drivers door and Andrew did so for the front passenger seat.
I started the engine and drove on the highway.
"So, what's happening between you and your brother. You promised me to try to make things work." I asked him, trying to start a conversation.
"Well, actually we went on dinner together last week and it went pretty well. Anaya, he is responsible for my parents death. If he had listened and didn't went biking with his friends, maybe mum and dad would still be alive today. I love my brother but there's something stopping me from having the same relationship as we had before. At times it's okay, I mean I can control my feelings and try to make the best out of the moment we spend together but at times it's not that simple." Andrew said, literally opening up. This should be seriously bothering him. I know him well and if it wasn't troubling him that much, he would never open up so much.
"Andrew, you know that James did nothing intentionally. No child in this world wish to see his parents dying like this. Try to understand him too, he regrets everything. And also, he's not having your support. It's not an easy work to direct a huge company like your bro does and moreover he's trying to achieve all the goals marked by your dad." I explained him. It's really heartbreaking to see siblings fight among themselves.
"I know Anaya but it's still hard to digest. It would have been easy for me to go away. Leave for another country but I'm still here because I know something, my mum wouldn't like it. I'm trying my best too but it's hard." I said and huffed. "Why can't life be easier?" He added before looking at me.
"Life is easy Andrew, we are the one making it difficult. There two words which are enough to keep that world moving; sorry and I love you. You love your brother, right? But did you forgave him yet?" I said and waited for him to answer.
"Maybe you are right, I haven't forgiven him yet." He said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Try to meet him and talk to him. He is your brother, I'm sure he will find some free time for you. You know Andrew, I'm really proud of you that you are at least trying." I said and gave him a smile.
"Bestie, why do you always have the right words?" He asked looking at me.
"I've got them for the right persons." I said and smirked.
"Hey, theres a match tomorrow night. Liverpool vs Manchester! They are screening it at Riff and Reef Pub tomorrow. Wanna come? Don't refuse tho, I'm the one inviting you." He said.
"If you are ordering me to come then why are asking?" I asked chuckling about his attitude.
"Manners." He said and we both laughed.
"Really dude? You want me to assist to the failure of Liverpool against the Red Devils?" I said annoying him a little.
"MANU stands no chance!" He stated loudly.
"Oh really?" I said and arched my eyebrow.
"Wanna bet?" He asked and smirked.
"Okay, but don't cry when you loose. Place your bet dear sir." I said.
"There's a party on Friday night in the honor of the contract signed between Sheikh Enterprises and Rollins&Co Enterprises. If that girl was right, it's themed blue and gold."
"So?" I said, wanting him to get straight to his point.
"I want you to wear a saree!" Andrew said. For heck sake! Seriously?
"Andrew, seriously?" I said in disbelief.
"Say now, if MANU wins. What will I have to do?" Andrew said.
"Wear dhoti pants for a week to the office." I said and smirked.
"Well, I wanted it." Andrew said and laughed.
"Mister, you are home! Please, move your ass out of my car." I said parking my car in front of the apartment building.
"I'm doing so your horror." He said and moved out of the car. I smiled as he waved goodbye. Andrew is a little like the brother I always wanted.

After that I went home and texted the whole Ahalia club about the lunch of tomorrow. I really don't know how I'll be able to mange the event, work and upcoming shows altogether. After texting them, I started my routine evening life, practice, revising and dinner with Snoopy. Troy called me and we discussed a little about what we could do to make the event more exciting, I'm glad that Troy is being so helpful.

I went to bed with the memories of my encounter with Mr Rollins. The way he touched my cheek, the spars and all. I never these emotions existed. I performed a lot of romantic songs with boys but never despite the chemistry which was shown I felt something for them. The earlier I'll stop thinking about it, the better it will be. I said to myself and drifted in a deep sleep.
