It has been almost two years since Kirsten last saw or heard from Sandy. He still do business with the Newport Group but just sent his assistant instead of him. Kirsten and Jimmy got divorced and Jimmy left Newport. After the divorce, everything pretty much returned to normal. Ryan is in Berkeley taking architecture, Kirsten was now the CEO of the Newport Group and Caleb decided to retire already and is off touring all around the world. Kirsten went on a few dates set up by her friends, she thinks that it will help her forget all about Sandy. That was how she met Carter, he's an editor from New York and was transferred in Newport. From the moment they met, they clicked. Although she did thought that it was because he was so much like Sandy that attracted her to him, but he's the one here, not Sandy. So she decided to give it a try and maybe she'll start seeing him

as Carter and not as Sandy.

It's Saturday and Kirsten is in the office trying to finish up some paperwork. She was halfway done when her phone rang.

"Kirsten Nichol" she answered

"Kiki!"

"dad…um…where are you and when are you coming back?"

"I'm in Tokyo"

"Tokyo? Dad you've been gone for almost a month already" she said while trying to focus on her work.

"well I'll be home soon, I promise. I gotta go, I have a flight to catch"

"so you're coming home?"

"no, bye Kiki, love you"

"wait! dad-" but Caleb has already hung up.

Putting the phone down, she noticed someone standing by the door. Looking up it was Carter.

"Hey!" he said, walking towards her desk

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

"I should ask you the same thing. Kirsten it's Saturday"

"I know but I have a lot of work to finish" she said before going back to doing her work.

"come on let's go somewhere"

"Carter I'd love too but I can't"

"we'll go to the mall…you can go shopping. I won't complain"

She sighed, "fine…no complaining"

Kirsten was looking through a rack of outfits while Carter was sitting on a chair playing with his phone to stop himself from getting bored. When she moves to look at the next rack, that's when she heard it

"you look beautiful"

she recognize that voice. Turning around she was right, she did knew that voice and who it belongs to, it was Sandy and he was kissing someone. She can't help but feel a rush of jealousy and anger run through her. She was about to grab Carter and leave when someone called her name.

"Ms. Nichol! How are you? Have you found something you like?" it was the store manager.

"Tod" she greeted "I was juts looking around"

"well if you find anything you like don't hesitate to ask"

"I will thanks" she said and went over to Carter and grab his hand, "come on let's go"

The pair was almost at the door when she felt someone grab her right hand lightly. When she turned around she was met by the pair of piercing blue eyes she thought she would never get to see again.

"sandy" she smiled at the same time feeling a little awkward because Sandy was still holding her hand and Carter was holding on her left and the three of them were blocking the entrance.

Sandy smiled at her and let go of her hand. He moved and so did Kirsten and Carter so they weren't blocking the door.

"how are you?" sandy asked

"I'm great" she smiled "you?"

"the same"

Carter noticed that the two were still smiling at each other and Kirsten hasn't introduced him yet, so he decided to introduce himself, "Carter, Carter Buckley" he said, raising his hand.

"Sandy Cohen" raising his too and shaking Carter's hand, but his eyes are still focused on Kirsten.

"so you're a Nichol again?" Sandy asked Kirsten

"yeah, jimmy and I got divorced last year"

"oh…well-" the woman that he was kissing earlier stand next to him, "oh, Hi!"

"aren't you going to introduce me?" the woman said

"Of course honey. Kirsten, Carter, this is my fiancé Rachel."

"fiancé?" Kirsten asked, her question directed at sandy but it was Rachel who answered

"yeah, were getting married next month. You know you should come to the wedding since you're a friend of Sandy's. the more the merrier right!"

"sure…thanks" Kirsten smiled and looked at her watch "I'm sorry but we really should be going, it's nice to meet you Rachel" putting on her best Newpsie voice, "sandy it was great to see you again. Good luck on the wedding"
