Revenge: Queen Of The Fashion World - 143 Liking someone again

“Thank you for dropping me off.” I said while exiting the car.”I’ll pick you up by five later?” Troy asked while he was walking me towards the entrance.”Yes. Thank you.” I smiled.”No need to thank me. It’s my responsibility.” Troy said. “Well I’ll be going. Have a good day at work.”Troy gave me a peck on my cheek.”Have a good day as well. Love you.” I said.”Love you too.” Troy replied.He entered the car and they drive off.I was waving them goodbye when Andrea popped up beside me.”Good morning.” Andrea greeted.”Good morning Andrea.” I replied.”You feeling okay now?” Andrea asked.”Yup. One hundred percent recharged.” I teasingly said.”That’s good to hear. How are the little ones?” Andrea rubbed my bulging tummy.”They are asleep now.” I smiled.The twins aren’t moving that much the whole way from the house till here.”Maybe a little later they will start moving again.” I said. “Well hows the company when I was gone?” I asked.Andrea and I entered the building and headed to the elevator. Along the way employees greeted us.”The company was doing fine. James have been a big help.” Andrea said. “I’m happy that he was here to help me run the company in tour absence.””Hmm, is that so?” I looked at Andrea and there was a bright smile on her face. I smiled looking at her. “Hmm if I might have known better I think you and James are working rather ‘closely’.” I teased.”Well James is a dependable guy. He is kind and charming…” Andrea was praising James.”Charming?” I asked with glee.”Oh um… I mean… he was so easy to work with.” Andrea blushed. She was fidgeting.”Hahaha Andie! You like him?!” I asked excitedly.”Shhh. Keep it down. What if anyone hears us.” Andrea was looking around is anyone heard our conversation.”Come on Andie, we aren’t teenagers anymore. What is wrong with having a crush on someone?” I said.”Well, this is my first time to like someone after a long time.” Andrea looked embarrassed.Truly this was really the first time I saw Andrea like someone. I have known her for eight long years and she never showed interest in men. At one point I thought she was a lesbian.But Troy said she had a boyfriend once in her teens. He described it as Andrea’s one great love. And just before I entered their lives, Andrea’s boyfriend met an accident that cost him his life and after that she has been single since then.”Well it is about time to like someone again. I am sure he would understand.” I said to her sadly.”Thanks Jill.” Andrea smiled. “I am not sure if I am prepared for this.””Don’t worry Andie, I am sure you will do fine.” I encourage her. “You are a strong and capable woman. And on top of that you are beautiful. Isn’t that right James.” I smiled.I saw James walking towards us from behind Andrea. She stiffened knowing that James was just behind her.”Huh?” James was taken aback with my question. “Oh yes. Andrea is a strong woman. Independent and capable. That is what is charming about her.””And beautiful, right?” I followed up.”Y-yes, of course. She is a beautiful girl.” James said.The both of them are in front of me and I see them both blush. I giggled.’Looks like they have some spark going on between them.’ I thought. The two are clearly embarrassed.”Okay. Let’s start the day, shall we?” I said.
