Twirling in front of the lifesize mirror, Sera had a soft smile across her face. She was excited to see Lucifer, and spend time with him at the brunch.
Now that their 'secret' relationship was no longer a secret, Sera was over the moon!
Attired in a floral off-shoulder dress in a fruity red, Sera looked like the princess of nature. Simply ethereal. Sera's gentle features, comely figure and good natured attitude, she was perfect from every angle and in every way. Her pink lips adorned the right shade of cherry, her cheeks blushing pink adding a tenderness to her entire look making her appear more youthful.
Locks of Sera's dark hair cascaded down her fair shoulders like waves of black. The inky pair of bewitching pools that were a glistening river held a deep longing and love for her man, Lucifer.
"Sera?! You're taking forever to get changed!! We promised Xia Ruo Lan to be early and help her out.."
Just as Sera turned to glance at the pair of heels she was going to wear, Su Yin's loud and agitated voice was heard. She shook her head, grabbed a pair of footwear and dashed out of the closet room.
"I'm done! Let's go.."
Flipping her lustrous hair back on one side, Sera softly announced making Su Yin gape in awe. Her jaw almost dropping on the cleanly sweeped floor.
"Damn! It's just a simple brunch girl, why're you so decked up?!"
Checking out her bestfriend with inquisitive eyes, Su Yin commented making her blush a deep red in alignment to her attire.
"Shut up!"
Patting her cheeks that were getting hot and uncomfortable under Su Yin's gaze, Sera snarled. Her lips stretched into a shy grin.
Guffawing loudly at the expense of Sera's embarrassment, Su Yin skipped out of the room fully energized unlike yesterday.
After Xia Ruo Lan's wise words followed by the handle-with-care tips with friends, Su Yin was dead tired from all the arguing that she immediately dozed off. Thus the trio's plans for shopping were thwarted just like that.
When Su Yin woke up from her slumber, she found Sera and Xia Ruo Lan binge watching some drama. So she joined in the fun.
The whole evening, Sera, Xia Ruo Lan and Su Yin spent together with yummy snacks, cooling drinks and a movie marathon, and Su Yin's special - facial spa. The girls had a great time.
It was their own private girl's time before the small brunch party with the boys!
Arriving at the carpark, Sera shot Su Yin a questioning look as her lips moved to ask her.
"You driving?"
Shrugging, Su Yin spat airily and walked to her favorite car in the Lu mansion.
"Okay, I don't mind.."
Nodding, Sera threw her a bunch of keys which Su Yin caught like a pro with a proud grin as though she'd just won a gold medal at the Olympics.
Chuckling at Su Yin's antics, Sera shook her head as she pulled the car door open, failing to notice a figure peeking from the shadows.
The duo of bestfriends entered into their respective seats, and the car drove away flying dust behind.
Shortly, a black car hidden behind the large tree emerged, and swerved after Sera and Su Yin's car. Careful enough to not expose itself.
For the first time in years the Xia mansion was thriving positively with a pleasant hustle bustle.
The last time Xia Ruo Lan had invited her friends over was more than 5 years ago, and Mia Chung was the one amongst them. They'd frequently have sleepovers, barbeque parties as well as movie nights with Lucifer and Ethan Lee joining them sometimes. Thus Aunt Yu's familiarity with the boys.
The beautiful garden with lush greenery, an artificial pond with a stone slab fountain and colorful koi fishes dancing inside was decorated with white lillies and beautiful red roses. There was a white table in the middle laden with mouthwatering dishes. It was a scrumptious feast able to evoke any man's appetite.
"Aunt Yu, it looks amazing.. Thank you so much!"
Xia Ruo Lan's eyes brightened up instantly as she looked around the whole place, her face beaming with joy.
Smiling, Aunt Yu glanced at Xia Ruo Lan with warmth in her gaze. Her aged eyes were exuding the motherly emotions that Xia Ruo Lan secretly longed for.
The old lady sighed inwardly and kept quiet.
All of the grievances that Xia Ruo Lan was feeling due to Ethan Lee's odd behavior ever since that night diminished after she spent time with Sera and Su Yin. She was feeling a lot better, her heart was no longer heavy.
There was faint sounds of rustling seizing their attention. Intrigued, Xia Ruo Lan was about to turn when Sera's apologetic words fell. She turned to look at her with a subtle smile.
"Xia Ruo Lan! Sorry.. We are late!"
It was already 11 am by the time Sera's car reached the avenue where Xia mansion was located. The girls were supposed to arrive early to help Aunt Yu and Xia Ruo Lan, as promised. But the heavy traffic on road hindered them from keeping their promise.
"Aw.. You're already done with the preparations?! Wow, that looks yummy..!"
On the side, Su Yin was surprised to see the splendidly decorated flowers in awe, especially the food. Her gaze sparkling with pink hearts flying out of them as she eyed the pineapple tarts hungrily.
The next second, Su Yin unceremoniously reached to pick the sweet tart glazed with chopped pineapples and stuffed her mouth with it.
Baffled by the sudden smooth transition from one topic to another by Su Yin, Xia Ruo Lan burst out into giggles.
From the side, Aunt Yu pressed her parched lips together hiding an amused smile. She really like her Young Miss' new friends. Suddenly, her gaze turned morose at the reminder of Mia Chung. The lovely girl with golden locks and emerald green eyes who loved Xia Ruo Lan to bits! Her very first friend..
"Seriously, this girl!!"
Laughing, Sera cast a helpless look at the giggling Xia Ruo Lan as she mumbled with a hint of adoration.
