"Oh my God. You're Elora Alby and you're Kara Larson."
The receptionist said in a overjoyed tone.
"Could I have a picture with both of you." The receptionist asked Elora and Kara
"Yes, sure." Elora smiled and replied.
Elora Alby was a worldwide famous pop singer and Kara Larson was her best friend. Kara Larson was the CEO, chief marketing officer and chief creative officer of Kara Cosmetics.
Elora and Kara were going to Australia for a 3 week vacation trip, they had landed in Paris and had 10 hours until their next flight so they thought of surprising Elora's family.
Elora had a older brother called Elijah, who was a businessman and the CEO of 'New Generations'. She had two more siblings, who were fraternal twins.
The first twin was Landon, he was a actor and acted in famous TV shows and also began acting in popular movies. The second twin was Lilith, she was a famous artist, she sold paintings which were worth million of dollars in the world.
Elora had the closest bond with Elijah. They both got a long really well, so she thought of surprising Elijah with her arrival and drag him with her and Kara to visit her parents and siblings.
Many people didn't know that Elora was a part of the 'Alby Family' because from the age of eleven to twenty she stayed in the USA, while the rest siblings stayed in France when they were growing up.
At the age of eleven Elora asked her parents if they could shift to California. Her dad, Edgar Alby at the time was the CEO of 'New Generations' company. He told her he had to run the company so they couldn't. After she heard what her dad had said, she ran to her bedroom and began crying.
Edgar Alby and Lydia Any his wife, always felt that his youngest daughter was different from the rest of the siblings and she loved going on adventures, she never liked to be pampered, she liked staying away from home, travelling alone.
So Edgar and Lydia, decided that Elora can stay in California with a full time nanny called Leah.
They trusted Leah alot, and Leah kept her trust, until Elora was sixteen.
After Elora moved to California with her nanny, she rarely visited France. She was very grateful to her parents because they allowed her to stay in California.
When she stayed in California, her mom and dad would visit her atleast for three to four times in a month. They stayed at least for three or four days in every visit.
Elora and Kara were in Elijah's company 'New Generations' to surprise him.
The receptionist couldn't believe that Elora was Elijah's sibling when Elora told her that she was related to Elijah.
Elora removed her passport from her bag and opened to the bio page and showed the receptionist and said "So here's the proof that I'm Edgar and Lydia Alby's daughter."
"Oh! I'll inform his secretary"
When the receptionist was about to pick up the phone. Elora stopped her and gently said "Don't! It's a surprise, just tell me which floor he is on."
"Yes Ms. Alby, he's office is on the 20th floor, you can take the elevator." The receptionist politely said, she was very excited to meet Elora.
"Hun, please don't address Elora or even me with miss and mam." Kara politely said.
"Oh! No worries Elora and Kara." The receptionist politely said. She was overwhelmed of how polite and gentle Elora was to her, she couldn't believe Elora and actually asked her to address them by their names. She never called any of the Alby family by their names and Elora was first.
"See you soon, wait what's your name?" Elora asked the receptionist.
"It's Natasha." The receptionist replied.
Elora waved with a smile on her face and walked towards the elevator.
----
In the elevator..
"Natasha, seemed nice" Kara said
"She really was, she was so damn excited when she saw us. If I was in her place I would have scram, she did a good job in concealing her emotions." Elora said.
They both went through their phones and Kara looked at Elora and said, "You look excited."
"How can you read me?" Elora said.
"Because I'm your best friend" Kara laughed and the elevator door opened with a 'ding'
"The elevator even agrees to it" Kara said
"Oh! Sure it does." Elora jokingly said.
They both walked to the secretary and Elora politely said "Is Elijah there, like available?"
"Umm.. Miss he'll be back soon because the meetings normally last for two hours."
"When did he leave?" Elora asked her.
"Let me handle it, okay. Chill out." Kara said.
Kara spoke to the secretary and the secretary told her that the meeting would get over approximately in ten minutes. The secretary led them to the waiting area and told them to wait until Elijah came back from his meeting.
After ten minutes the elevator, the elevator door opened with a 'ding'.
