The Dowager was talking with her daughter-in-law when the couple entered the room.
"Good morning, grandmother, father, and mother," Jeremy greeted politely.
"Good morning, Dowager Long, Mr Long, and Mrs Long," Ryn greeted politely. She followed Jeremy to an empty seat.
"Catherine, you've come," Mrs Long said cheerfully. She knew the younger woman would come here first in order to park her car. While they were gone, the driver would make sure the cars got started regularly. Of course, behind Ryn's knowledge, the driver would also send her car to a workshop for a simple renovation. Not that obvious. As the car's name was white, they would not change the colour. They would only change the engine and eliminate all the risk of danger. Anti bullet, anti-bomb, and all that sort of things for the car. Even if, God forbid, she was in an accident, the safety level in the car would keep her safe from any heavy injury.
The maids quickly came in bringing breakfast for the couple. Ryn and Jeremy thanked them and started to eat their breakfast.
They ate their breakfast peacefully. The family did not talk much during meal unless there was something they had to discuss but had no other suitable time to do it.
"You didn't tell me you're here," Mika's cry hit them first before she came rushing into the room.
"Mika, don't run in the room," the Dowager said with a frown. She always reminded all her family members, especially the female family members. Sophisticated, calm, and ladylike. But it seemed like her granddaughter, being as spoiled as she was, sometimes forgot to remember the teaching.
"Good morning, grandmother," Mika, giggling, hugged and kissed Dowager's cheek. And then she went to hug and kiss her mother and father. The elders chuckled seeing her acting like a spoiled little girl.
Ryn lifted her head and looked at her best friend when Mika quickly went to sit beside her. "Just woke up?"
"Hmm... Why didn't you call me when you're coming?" Mika asked before she thanked the maid who placed her breakfast on the table.
"Ask your brother," Ryn handed the responsibility to answer to her boyfriend, Jeremy.
Jeremy cleared his throat and took a sip of his orange juice. He even took out his phone and pretended to be absorbed reading the news.
Mika rolled her eyes at her brother before looking back at Ryn.
"You are wearing these for the trip?" she asked with a frown. Of course, she understood her best friend's taste in fashion. Simplicity was Ryn's favourite theme. But, sometimes she hoped that Ryn would agree for her to style Ryn's fashion so whenever paparazzi or fans took her pictures, she would look classy and proper. She would look fashionable.
Ryn just smiled. It was the answer to the question. Short and simple.
Mika was about to speak when she noticed the warning look from her mother. She cancelled the thought and pouted instead. She looked down and started to eat her breakfast.
Ryn chuckled to see the pout and rubbed Mika's head gently. She then continued to eat her food, not wanting any of them to lose their warmth. The deliciousness would lose when the food got colder.
"Your little sister, that is the one getting married," Mr Long commented dryly as he shook his head in bemused. His little princess was getting married but still retained childishness and innocent. How he wished he could keep her for several more years but he knew Jason and his daughter have been waiting for years to be married. Besides, without his little daughter, he could spend more meaningful time with his lovely wife. His son would soon follow the footstep of his daughter and would be married as well with Catherine. And his mother, once she was done with all the wedding, would surely go have her vacation somewhere or go to any temple. His mother loved to go to a temple to pray and in her words, to get closer to her late husband.
"Hmm... starting tomorrow she's going to be Jason's mess to handle," Jeremy replied as he reached for another cup of coffee. He needed more caffeine to stay awake so he could deal with some files while waiting for the time to leave.
"Well, good luck to him," Mr Long said.
"He surely deserves her, waiting that long," Jeremy sighed. The couple started their relationship before Ryn and him, and never once did he see them in a fight. While he and Ryn, on the other hand, was more volatile and full of jealousy. He could not help it. He loved her too much and could not control his jealousy to see her with other men but at the same time, he refused to let their relationship be revealed to the public.
"Are you saying my daughter is a handful?" Mrs Long looked at both her husband and son in disbelief. She frowned and crossed her arms looking at them unhappily. How could they say those words about her lovely daughter?
"It's just a joke, mother. Of course, father and I are very happy for Mika. We want her to be happy," Jeremy said hurriedly as he soothed her mother's feathers.
Mr Long laughed as he leaned and pulled his wife to him. Then, ignoring his mother, Jeremy and even the maids, he kissed her right on her lips.
"Father, I'm here, and I'm trying to eat," Jeremy ġrȯȧnėd as he looked after, ashamed on behalf of his shameless parents. How could his father kiss his mother right in front of him, their son? And not to mention, his grandmother was still in the room.
"Kid, go into your room," Mr Long pulled from his wife just enough to say those words before leaning back against his giggling wife for another sweet kiss.
Her son would never change. Whenever he could, he would shamelessly do public display action, even in front of her and her late husband, and now it seemed like her grandchildren were not an exception. They had to face this kind of display as well. Hmm... luckily both went out living by themselves and now little Mika would get married to the man she loved since young. Sigh, she could not wait for all this wedding preparation to be done so she could return to her husband and her favourite temple. It did feel like she was closer to him whenever she prayed there.
Ryn sat on the love seat in the room once they entered Mika's room. Mika closed the door and skipped to the connecting door to her wardrobe. She hummed as she went to open the dress section and then, the jeans and pants section.
Ryn just crossed her legs and waited. She did not bother to follow her best friend. When she heard the question in the dining room, she knew what was inside Mika's mind when she was pulled into Mika's room.
Mika came back with a handful of clothes. She threw them on the bed carelessly and then pulled Ryn to look at her selection.
"What do you think of these pairing?" Mika showed the pink halter top with tight jeans to her best friend excitedly. She was planning to wear something similar today for the flight.
"No," came the quick and short answer from Ryn. In fact, Ryn already sat on an empty space on the bed while looking at the mountain of clothes Mika created. "I don't think I need to change, Mika. What I'm wearing are comfortable for a long flight."
"But... but..."
"It's a long flight, Mika, and I don't think anyone is interested enough to take pictures of me at the airport," Ryn shrugged. She did not think she was interesting enough to be followed by paparazzi.
"Ryn, you're a famous model. And your popularity in this country has grown even more after you joined the program. And most importantly, Jeremy is your boyfriend. Of course everyone will be interested to see what you're wearing at the airport," Mika pointed out.
"Remember to pack your pills," Ryn reminded as she finally stood up and looked at the clothes Mika chose.
"Already done that yesterday," Mika replied. She quickly put the clothes she chose from one pair to another over Ryn as she frowned. Which one looked better for her Ryn?
Ryn just let herself became a doll. She still found what she wore from home looked okay but the designer beside her said differently.. She sighed again.
