My Little Sunshine

Picking up her phone from the study desk, Adam dialed a number with which he was too familiar with. He didn't even have to look through the contacts list to find the number as he could recall it even in his sleep. Pressing the phone next to his ear, he waited for the call to get connected. 

A couple of rings later, the call was finally connected through and he finally got to hear the voice of his childhood best friend after so long. 

"What do you want from me now, Stella? And please don't say that you don't like the phone. I am not sending you another one." Blake spoke up as soon as the call was connected through, without waiting for the other person to even say hello.

"Hold your horses man." Adam replied, the corner of his lips curling up on their own. His words were met with silence in response as the other person went completely quiet after hearing his voice. 

"Y-You…." A couple of seconds later, he finally heard Blake's response. "How are you?" 

"Not dead, yet." Adam replied with a light chuckle, trying to lighten up the atmosphere as he could hear his voice cracking slightly.

"You…! Just keep your mouth shut." Not liking his reply, Blake spat back at him. "How long?" He added a little while later when he didn't hear a response from him, keeping his words to the minimum. 

"A couple of weeks." Adam replied to him in the same way, keeping his reply short, yet clear. 

"Where the hell have you been all this while?" Blake couldn't help but feel enraged after hearing his response. It had already been a couple of weeks since the man returned, and it was now that he was bothering himself to give him a call. The mere thought was enough for his blood to start boiling. 

"Before you go ape-shit mad at me, I have been with your little sister all this while. She's getting ready for the banquet at the moment." Adam spoke up in his defense. 

"You have been with her all this while?" Blake asked him for confirmation, only to get a low hum in response. "So why did you decide to suddenly give me a heart attack?" He added.

"I had something I needed to discuss with you which is really important." Adam replied to him. "It's about a man who might have been delivered to our base a couple of days ago." 

"Oh! That man. He is still here, safe and sound. I decided to keep him in one of our underground cells after reading the letter which accompanied him. It said something along the lines of him being the missing link to your disappearance." Blake answered him.

"Good! Keep him there until I say so. I will visit the base in a day or two after the company's events are settled down." Adam instructed him. "And it's good to hear your voice." He added the last part with a wide smile gracing his lips before disconnecting the call, not waiting for his reply.

His eyes moved to the antique looking wall clock and lingered over there moving second's arm for a while as he did some calculations in his mind. Deciding that he should better start getting ready for the banquet, he left the study room. He wouldn't mind waiting for Stella after he was completely suited up and ready to leave as she continued with her last minute touch ups. But there was no way he would make her wait after getting all glammed up.

An hour later,

Just like always, Adam was waiting for his precious wife to get done with her preparations for the events. But this time he had his disguise on as he would be accompanying her to the event as her personal assistant, not her partner. He was sitting in the living room on the same couch on which he was so leisurely lying down earlier as he waited for his 'Boss' to make an appearance. The dark maroon coat and dress pants, paired with a crisp white cotton shirt and a small golden feather shaped brooch pinned to the lapel of his coat, only added charm to his personality. 

It was the same customized suit which Stella had ordered for when she visited the mall. The multiple taps of his black leather boots on the mosaic patterned marble floor, was enough of a proof for his impatience. He wasn't getting annoyed by the waiting he always had to do for her, but rather he wanted to see her all dolled up. It had been a long while for him since he last saw her like this. 

"Hey, handsome! Have you seen my husband around by any chance?" A cheery voice made him shift his eyes to the entrance of the living room where he saw her standing, looking like the goddess she was.

The sheer black mesh of cloth clung onto her body perfectly, showing the right curves and edges. The opaque dots scattered throughout the mesh, acted as barriers in certain places, covering her milky smooth skin. The boat shaped neck was not too wide, yet not too small, only allowing portions of her collar bone to peep out. The puffy full sleeves wrapped around her dainty yet strong arms like an ivy, ready to burn the fingers which even brushes past her. The lower hem barely kissed the lower border of her knee, leaving her oh so perfect legs for her husband's eyes to feast on. The inner plain black lining hugged her bosom, encasing them and stopping just a little above the mesh cloth around her knees. 

Left awestruck by her blinding beauty, Adam could only gape as his eyes refused to leave her figure even for a fleeting second.
