43: New Friendship
"Don't be worried. We all know who's going to win." Her best friend's laugh was heard all the way to the place she was going to.
"I know, I'm not worried. I just feel nervous. It's related to my career after all." Ria shrugged and ventured towards the area where students' models were, her eyes calm as ever. Being nervous was a part of life of every student. She was confident she would still win though. She worked hard continuously for days to win the competition.
She had to say that everyone who had worked hard, their hard work really paid off. All the samples for the competition before her were as shiny as a star.
Today she was wearing her pink half-sleeve dress which reached to her knees, the same dress which she used to wear when she wanted something good to happen. She was not superstitious but still thought that the pink dress always brought her good fortune and luck.

"Professor Ashton, you called for me?" Zaria Smith poked her head inside the office room of Reed Ashton."Yes, I was hoping for us to have a cup of tea together, Miss. Smith." Reed Ashton invited her to sit and stared at his student who had never let him down, but this time he was disappointed in her.He had not anticipated that this student of his would chose to forfeit this way."Professor, you do not have to beat around the bush." She exhaled a breath as she had already read the expressions on his face."Then, explain why did you chose to stay behind and damage your own design?" He was certain that she would surpass all and won if it were not for her own doing, because there was no way someone could tamper with the jewellery models under the watch of CCTV camera.

Master Anderson was agile to see the complicated fleeting emotions in his wife's eyes.He decided not to comment on anything, but coax her in to telling the matter herself on her own."Mia, my wife, I know there must be a reason you have been acting like this, but we've been together for so long. Which obstacles we haven't encountered yet? Take your time and tell me whenever you want to.

Elizabeth understood his agony and nodded, trotted towards the main hall to call someone. There she saw Elian talking with someone on phone. "Young Master! Young Master!" "What happened?" Elian calmly asked like nothing happened. "Madam Anderson--" Elian suddenly had a sudden premonition. "What happened to mom?" "She.. she fainted."

"He's there, discussing something." Lisa silently pointed out at some other room that had a golden nameplate, 'Doctor Frederick.' Zaria frowned, "What is uncle doing over there when aunt is in another room? I should inform him of my arrival." As she made her way towards the room, she stopped dead in her track when she heard the doctor's words. "Haven't she told you about her illness?" "What illness?" Her uncle questioned. "She has a brain tumour. She has been coming here for three years for treatment. Strangely, no one in her house knows of this."The reason why she would disappear at times was all because of this? Brain tumour? Zaria's mind went blank when she heard of this. 'Aunt has a brain tumour?' 'Since when?' 'Why did she not tell th

Go on!" Ria urged Lisa to go to her aunt while she straightened up and pushed her hazelnut strands behind her ear and looked at Elian with an eager look. "Is aunt alright?" Albeit, she was trying too hard to compose her emotions, but her eyes seemed to be not working for her anymore. They were shaking. Elian finally took a look at the girl in front of him. The girl who was soon-to-be his wife. Her fair cheeks had tear stains and her designer clothes seemed untidy as if she had run a marathon. "There's nothing to worry about. Also, mom would be more concerned if she sees you like this." Zaria blushed under his stare and touched her

Sofia answered as she applied the lip gloss on her princess' lips with concentration and lastly, fixed the veil on her head. "You look breathtaking today." Zaria looked up at the reflection of the mirror and stood up quickly from the stool, stupefied. "Alec!" Both the girls shouted in unison. "Hi." He smiled, standing there with a hand in his pants' pocket. His forest green emerald eyes showed gentleness. "Look at you! You have gotten more handsome now." Sofia exclaimed. "Thanks."

She had not seen him in these past few years, so she did not feel close to him.This boy had grown to a fine young man in these years, she noticed."You're older than me, so please call me by my name."
