A week passed since that incident. Ryan's wounds had almost healed and Roseanne had erased the haunting memory of him from her mind.

"Roseanne my boyfriend and I had arranged for a date today. Can you please let us go? Please?"

"Yes, you can go."

"Really, thank you so much." She picked up her back and took out her phone to dial a number. "Bye. Take care."

"Hmm. You too. Enjoy."

"I will." And she left talking to someone in the sweetest voice.

Roseanne sighed. Today it was their class's turn to clean up. All the children had already made excuses and now one more. Lucy was not in the same class and wanted to wait, but the school supervisor insisted that she goes and that is how only the two of them were left, and just now that girl had also given up.

After half an hour she finished and made her way home. She was waiting for the green signal to turn on when the windows if the car in front of her rolled down. "Hi baby. Did you miss me?"

"Y- you! Why are you here?" She replied shocked but remained calm.

"Why? Not happy to see me?"

"Of course not." She sighed and said, "You don't realise what you've done?"

In the most innocent voice he replied "What did I do? Kiss the most beautiful girl in the whole universe?"

Roseanne stared at him in disgust "Yuck! You really have no idea how to do it."

He smirked. "That's exactly what I expected. Now, come. Sit in the car. I need to TALK to you."

"The audacity! Nope. Sir with all due respect you are a stranger."

"Babe, if you don't get in. I will put you in myself."

Roseanne gulped. She sat inside the car as though her body was controlled by him.

"Okay, I hope you know the location." He said to the driver.

"Yes sir."

The environment in the car was very awkward. Roseanne kept stealing glances at Ryan and vice versa.

Finally, Ryan broke the silence "What? You are already in love with me." He said winking at her.

"What are you talking about? Me... in love? No! Never."

Suddenly there was a signal and a jerk as the driver made a unexpected brake. Ryan was caught off guard and fell on Roseanne and kissed her. It started out rough but as soon as Ryan got back into his senses he made it soft and sweet (enough to make the driver emotional).

"Sorry sir. I did not notice the signal" He lied. "If you are the driver, I am the boss. I know exactly what you did." The driver was about to say something, but Ryan cut him off.

"Explain yourself later." He replied getting up from the Roseanne.

Roseanne took out her phone and messaged someone.

After a few minutes a voice said, "Sir, we have reached."

As they got down a person came up to Ryan and handed Roseanne's coat. "Here. Your coat." Ryan said handing over the coat to Roseanne. She was so surprised that he dry-cleaned it.

"Thank you"

"Now, now. Don't stand there thanking me."

She took the coat and innocently tried to find a way to sneak out.

Ryan saw her, and he snapped his finger and caught her attention. "You won't be able to go anywhere. This place has a very high level of security not even a fly can get in and out without permission."

She replied with a single nod.

As they walked into the big company Roseanne was in awe. 'Who is he exactly?' Ryan saw that and pinched her. "Don't daydream. You have enough time for this in the future."

"Okay"

They got on the lift which was fully packed. As the lift moved up, the people one by one got of on their floor. Now only Ryan and Roseanne were left. They reached the 50th floor. They were greeted by Ryan's assistant, Mark.

They all made their way to his private conference room and stood in silence. Mark signaled Roseanne to sit down as Ryan whispered something in his ear. Ryan too sat down and Mark began talking.

"A very warm welcome to Miss Roseanne at Central Wright Corporation. I am Mark, Mr. Wright's assistant. Today we want to discuss something very important with you. But it will stay between us only. Okay?" Roseanne gave a nod.

"Miss, words please."

"Yes, it stays between us only." Replied Rose rather startled. Ryan watched this quietly.

"We know about you dreams of being a spy, and we want to give you the opportunity to become one."

"So?"
