A week later, Collet and Salsa stood at the enormous front door of the Golden Villa, waiting for their most anticipated guest, Lady Portia. Collet carefully dragged the newly straightened strand of her hair away from her face as a luxurious car stopped. The mother and daughter looked at each other meaningfully then smiled before they stepped forward to welcome those who have arrived.
Lady Portia, although old, can still be regarded as highly beautiful. No amount of grey hair and wrinkled lines was able to mar her face and not even her slow weak and calculated motion was able to debase her gracefulness. She stepped off the car with Margo, and even though the sight of Aviona's pretend best friend did not please the mother and daughter tandem, they still gave a wide warm smile.
"Lady Portia," Salsa came forward and cautiously made a curtsy to honour the old lady. In return, Lady Portia gave her a polite nod of acknowledgement.
