When they reached the villa once more, Iris was welcomed by a group of people already sitting outside and enjoying their time. They stood up to greet them, and to her joy, Iris saw no lingering weirdness from what had happened last time. The group seemed to have decided to pretend it never happened, and Iris was thankful to them for that.
While they chatted about inconsequential things, a sports car whizzed in. It was bright yellow and just screamed 'My driver is super rich'. There was no question who drove it.
Elise stepped out from the passenger's side, and Iris squealed in delight. She'd hoped for it to happen, but hadn't thought it possible. In her mind, Gale would try to keep Elise away from anything too personal.
Feeling happy to have been proven wrong, Iris ran off to envelop her friend in a hug and congratulated her in a whisper. Elise was as bit surprised by the joyous welcome, but relaxed upon noticing that it was Iris.
