"Dev!" Shanaya yelled the second he entered with Sonakshi. "Where have you been? You are four hours late when you've never been four minutes or even four seconds late. Then she looked at Sonakshi and the fact that his arm was around her waist, in jealousy. "And this is?"
"Sonakshi Dixit." Dev said with a grin.
"Your sister?" She asked with a smile, yet rudely.
"She doesn't look like me." Dev said confused at her tone.
"Then maybe she's your step-sister." She said shifting her balance, glancing at her.
"My Dad never cared to marry twice, he loves mom too much." He laughed at her look now.
Sonakshi felt her temper rise and settle all at once at her rude tone. Dev had always explained Shanaya to be a nice, calm girl. At the moment she was anything but nice. She treated Dev like her employee when he was actually her boss.
"No, I'm his wife Sonakshi Dixit." She tossed back politely, yet surprising Dev that she clarified, not him.
"What?" Shanaya looked at Dev in shock. "When did you get married?"
"We'll complete seven months in a week."
"You remember that?" Sonakshi quickly said, impressed he knew.
"Whatever," Shanaya looked at Dev again. "The report is ready, are you?"
"No." He said as Sonakshi got out of his arm and walked towards the paintings that hung in the corridor that lead to his fathers old office. He allowed her to go, it was her office as much as it was his. "I'm not here to work Shanaya. I'm spending the day with Sonakshi."
She leaned over and kissed his cheek, "You never told me you were married."
"No one knows. We got married very secretly." His eyes wandered back towards Sonakshi, which annoyed Shanaya more. "Give me the reports, I'm sure I can go over them with Sonakshi afterwards. She watched the launch live."
"It can wait, so can I."
"No." He looked at her sternly. "We will go over them. Sonakshi." He called moving away. He stood beside her as she continued to look at the paintings. "Like them?"
"They are amazing Dev. They have been painted in such fine details yet the colors are painted so bluntly." She ran her finger over the frame and then looked at him smiling.
"You know paintings, don't you?"
She shrugged, "I paint Dev. I'm bound to know about it. Where did you get them from?"
"Catalogues, when we were going to interiors."
"Not to be rude Dev, but whoever did your interior did a very dull deal. I mean it's all so pale gray. You should have done abstract colors, bright and colorful." When she looked back at him she saw the faint lipstick mark on his cheek. "I never kissed you." She mumbled rubbing her thumb over it.
"Oh Shanaya-" he stopped when he saw the disappointment in her eyes for the first time in his life. "Shanaya just..."
"I didn't ask for an explanation either." She said turning away, moving to the next painting. Although her eyes concentrated on the painting her mind was on Shanaya and Dev. Did they like each other? she wondered.
That was awful, she told herself. She didn't have the right to just assume things. But then what was he doing walking around the office with a lipstick mark on his cheek?
"Here's the file Dev." Shanaya said holding the file out. "Anything else?"
"Hmm, yes. Just a sec." He looked at Sonakshi, and called her. She turned and walked to them. "Where do you want to eat tonight?"
