Earlier, the scene downstairs.
The shiny bright lights seemed to appear beggar like in front of the intense aura of a different type of energy entering the hall. As the track in casino shuffled to [HUSSH- Aviva https://youtu.be/x4KCrnQq92Q], it seemed like the heavens wanted to honor these mystic ladies. As they entered, Ria made her way inside first; she looked like a Greek goddess in front of everyone present there for a drink. She looked more like vine then vine itself.
"Ugh! People. Too many people." Ria.
"Yeah right! I feel awkward." Ace.
As she entered with an eager sash in cue.
"Sash, don't leave our sight, okay?" said ace.
"Okay! Time for fun babes." Sash said excitedly as she hurried to the bar counter.
The men were evidently getting drunk on those lips, those silky long legs and most importantly the unique aura each of them had. It made them stand out from the see-through dresses, high heels and gaudy makeup mannequins which were earlier like scenery to behold but now. It was almost like the midnight sky after a hot day, it appeared like a lovely spring night after a scorching summer daydream. As they started descending the stairs to the casino they looked like the priciest creation of god, the milky skin captured the eyes of the men as well as ladies present there.
For a moment the atmosphere regained normally as the audience saw a man of status accompanying these goddesses. This stirred an air of confusion in the public. Everybody had a question of their own, "such expensive mistresses? Who is the lady in red? The black one looks cold huh! The sliver satin one dare come near my man!"
But to no avail, each one of them had handicapped their capacity to think. They had only eyes for the unmatchable beauty of the evening. They were glad they were paid the worth to their money.
"But not everyone is happy, isn't it?"
At the far end of the counter there sat a lady, pointy brows, and curious eyes, clad in a dusky pink strapless party dress, with a mink scarf on her shoulder and with a man lurking behind her with hawk like eyes. With a glass of clear champagne in hand, she leaned back as the crowd settled and asked the man, "Sam, do you know them or not?"
Sam- "yes ma'am. We have sent our men. It seems AMATE corps is behind them. For now we lay low."
Madame Rose- "that's okay for now. It seems they are foolish enough to appear publically. Call my husband and son, tell them I am home."
Madame Rose put her hat on as she saw them advance towards the lift and proceeded to leave with a smirk on her face.
As sash downed her second drink, she felt the playful energy surge through her veins, she pulled the guy next to her almost to her lips, the guy's world went topsy-turvy, he wasn't used to it, just as he gained his stability, he saw a pair of lips approaching he reached out his hands, but the mirage vanished. The face turned to him was suddenly turned towards the bartender with lips only for the drink; he withdrew as a pair of hands came with a coat and draped them over her shoulders. Alas, it was all a mirage.
Manager Kym- "this is your 3rd drink my princess, only 2 left I AM WATCHING YOU."
Sash- "yeah! I know. There comes the manager. Go, talk, hurry!"
Manager Kym turned around and spotted Ace and nodded for her to come, which made Ace go up to Ria and she took her along to the lift as directed by their oppa.
As they moved towards the lift the glitter of the party they smeared on everyone's eyes became a treasured memory for them.
In the lift sash was as sober as she was earlier, that girl could handle it? Yes!
As they admired the view of the casino from the transparent glass walls of the lift they were wonderstruck.
As they reached the uppermost hallway and stepped out of the lift, the manager led them to their suite.
Ria- "umm, which suite is it? Tell me the no. I need to use the ladies room first. I will join you ASAP!"
Manager- "its 1C ma'am right around the corner on the left."
Ria- "ok! Thank you!"
Ace- "should I come along."
Ria- "no, it's fine. Enjoy."
The manager led others to their suite.
Ria hurried along as she took out her phone and opened the camera to take a look at herself. Her legs went wobbly for a second and she fell head on. She closed her eyes and held her gown in a fist as she anticipated her fall.
As his phone rang, he saw his father's name on display. Evan immediately stationed the floating cabin and stepped out to answer the call.
Just as he cut the call and started moving towards 1A, their suite, he kept on viewing his phone for his dad's update on his health. He walked in a hurry, he saw something red flash in front of him which he readily recognized, and he felt the figure moving unevenly and unknowingly stretched his arms but failed resulting in her falling head-on on himself. As he fell he grabbed her waist and pulled her towards himself on an impulse. His other hand went behind her neck and behold! Lips crashing against each other, her left elbow on his right shoulder; her right hand between her and his body. It was chaos on outside and on the inside it was hailstorms.
Ria hurriedly parted, stumbled again as she got up, gathered her belongings, i.e., her phone and her broken bracelet, she dashed towards the ladies room.
She heaved a sigh as she shut the door behind her.
"Really! A kiss, wait? Who was he? I didn't even see his face."
Somewhere in her mind she liked it yet she denied.
