Wisteria let go of Hue and smiled kindly and fondly at her guests and adopted daughter.
"Sorry about that kids… this woman…" Hue said
Wisteria gave him a menacing look stopping whatever he was about to say next.
"I mean… this lovely lady beside me is your Aunt Wisteria and you can call me Uncle Hue. Welcome to our modest home."
Before they could reply, Claire had shouted in interruption and realization.
"You're the mysterious daughter of the Naides!"
Realization her obvious blunder, Claire hid behind Uoron's back and blushed bright as a tomato.
"Oh! Aren't you the people who saved Reen last time?" Wisteria said in pleasant surprise upon recognizing Uoron's group
"Saved? Saved her from what?" Mirly said with a slight high pitch on her voice. Diola, Sae and Skie looked at Reen then at the other group in confusion.
"Reen, you didn't tell them?" Hue asked rather a bit shocked
"Oh! Uhm… I thought it wasn't anything-"Receiving a glare from Mirly, Diola and Sae she reflectively shut her mouth.
Wisteria then briefly told them what had happened gaining a glare and accuse filled eyeful from Diola and friends towards Reen. Reen gulped by the intensity of these stares especially from Mirly.
After finishing her piece, Hue and Wisteria entertained the other guests as they then found out it was Uoron who had saved their beloved daughter while Reen tried placating her friends.
"Thank you very much young man! You have help and saved my beloved daughter twice now!" Hue said
"Twice?"
Uoron's friends especially Claire looked at him in contemplation and curiosity. Uoron bluntly ignored them
"No need for thanks sir, it was just a coincidence for both incidents."
Loving the humility and maturity of Uoron, Hue could not help but pat him on the shoulder while Wisteria looked warmly at him.
Finally appeasing her friends, Reen exhaled and introduced everyone again.
"Mom, dad these are my friends from the right Diola, Skie, Mirly, Chad, Bill, Claire, Veo, Cookie, Sae and lastly Uoron. Guys, these are my parents Wisteria and Hue Naide." Though she previously introduced Diola and friends to them she still included them again juts to remind everyone who is who.
All of them said albeit a little late "Good afternoon".
"By the way, I know you now realize I'm Crimson and as you may know…" She didn't finish her words but they understood it regardless
"Don't worry, will keep your identity a secret." Cookie smilingly said
Uoron's group who had met the couple prior to this but never in their entire lives would they guess that Crimson and Reen was the same person especially with how she looks now and when she's Crimson.
"Hey! Why do look so … different from how you look when you're Reen?" Claire who was in reality a die hard fan of Crimson especially the new MV [1] she released could not help but have mix feelings after finding this truth.
Reen knowing why she changed her sentence midway could not help but smile at her.
Despite Reen's somewhat awkward feeling towards Claire she didn't really hate or dislike the girl. Seeing her cowering behind Uoron and the way he let her do as she please she shook her head to disperse her unpleasant thoughts and feelings and answered her honestly.
