Chapter 20 - Is he gay or impotent?

Sophia heard footsteps and looked up towards the person walking from the entrance. Daniel entered the dining area and took a seat beside Sophia and they both passed each other a smile and had their breakfast, enjoying each other's company.

"I won't be able to come for lunch today. I have a meeting with some clients.", Daniel said after they were done with breakfast.

"It's okay. My friend is back after signing a deal. We will have lunch together anyways. So it's good that you are busy yourself and I won't have to decline.", Sophia said with understanding and she was immersed in thinking what to tell Emily about her wedding.

Sophia didn't notice that Daniel's mood dropped after seeing her accepting it so eagerly. She wasn't even a little bit reluctant to not being able to meet him during lunch.

He would have even cancelled the meeting if she said she wanted to have lunch with him but it's just his wishful thinking.

Daniel knows that he has been in love with her for years but she hasn't. In fact she just came out of a relationship. He was okay with his feelings not being reciprocated for now because he just loves her way too much that he believes his sincerity would move her one day. But when she said she missed him yesterday and later their little moment during movie night, he felt like his hopes were raised instantly and he became greedy.

He wanted her to be reluctant to be apart from him but her reply brought him to reality. He understood he can't be hasty and he needs to give her enough time and space to move on. After making himself understand her point of view, he felt that she was right.

They both have many responsibilities towards their career and they need to carry them too.

"I will see you in the evening then.", Daniel said and Sophia nodded her head in approval. They both stood up and went towards garage and drove out towards their respective offices.

After reaching his office, Daniel asked Joe to get the documents ready for their inter-departmental meeting scheduled for about half an hour later.

He walked into his office and looked through some files and brushed past the meeting agendas. He then left to attend the meeting.

Sophia on the other hand walked towards her cabin straight after she reached her office building. She opened the door and found Emily sleeping on the couch while half sitting and half laying down. She was in a weird position with her upper body laying on the couch and her legs were dangling down. Sophia sighed and brought out a blanket from the attached resting room and covered Emily with it.

She then went to her desk and started working on the files kept there. About an hour later, Sophia felt Emily's movements and looked up. Emily was sitting on the couch now while lazily yawning.

"Why can't you just go home and rest after such a long flight. Or you could rest in lounge area of your cabin.", Sophia said and picked up the intercom to ask Anna for two coffees.

"I just wanted to tell you about the deal we got.", Emily said walking towards her desk and settled on the chair opposite to Sophia.

"Really. That's all?", Sophia asked narrowing her eyes and Emily smiled sheepishly.

"Well, I just wanted to know about the marriage thing in passing.", Emily said and laughed unnaturally. Sophia gave her a bored look and Emily stopped herself from laughing unnecessarily.

"Okay fine! I want to know about your married life. After all, it doesn't happen everyday that you stumble upon someone and you get married instantly. And above everything that random person is none other than 'The Daniel Rodriguez'. So, tell me how is it? To be married to the most dashing man and taking the eligible bachelor off the charts.", Emily said stretching her neck to hear the spicy details.

"What you are expecting doesn't happen.", Sophia said and Emily widened her eyes in disbelief.

"You didn't take advantage of your own husband. He is your personal husband and you still didn't eat him up.", Emily said dramatically and Sophia gave her a weird look.

"What is personal husband? Have you heard of public husband ever?", Sophia said while shaking her head at her friends antics.

"That's not the point girl. Why didn't you guys do that? Is he unable to.", Emily said and Sophia got reminded of the hard thing poking her yesterday and she blushed.

"You did think of something. Tell me. Spill the beans fast.", Emily said and Sophia came back from her memories and glared at her friend.

"Nothing like that.", Sophia said and Emily raised her brows inquiringly.

"We didn't even kiss.", Sophia said with a little loss. She didn't even realise that she sounded like she was disappointed that they hadn't even kissed yet.

"Oh my god! Is he gay or impotent? No, that can't be true.", Emily thought out loudly and Sophia flicked her forehead.

Anna entered with their coffees and left after keeping them. Emily was rubbing her forehead with a pout.

"What goes on in your head all day? He is not gay and he is also very healthy.", Sophia said and Emily asked, "Then why didn't he do anything? I mean you are beautiful and quite sexy too. It can't be that he didn't see your beautiful built.", Emily said while recounting her good points.

Sophia sighed seeing her friend going on and on with her bizarre thoughts. Sophia decided to tell her the truth or she will go on thinking absurd things.

"He is just a gentleman. He promised me that he won't touch me if I don't take an initiative and he remains true to his words and never made me feel uncomfortable with his presence.", Sophia said and Emily listened to her quietly.

"You don't like him?", Emily said and Sophia sighed.

"It's not like that. I can feel his care and respect that he gives me. I feel secure with him around. So, it won't be wrong to say that I like him.", Sophia said with a dreamy look

"So if you like him and he can't take an initiative because of his promise to you then why don't you take the initiative yourself.", Emily asked while sipping her coffee.
