Some of the boys were busy talking to Beth and others were playing among themselves.
As she entered the room, Aria drew a lot of attention. Though she was not dressed as beautifully as her sisters, but she was more beautiful than them both and had an amazing aura.
She went with Julia to a corner of the room, where Julia, being the restless one, began asking her to make her fly. Aria knew that she could not make Julia fly very high in the presence of all these people, but she was not able to refuse her.
So Aria was making Julia hover a few inches above the ground when a boy came up to talk to them. He said, "Hey, Miss Julia. And this might be....." But his princely manners went out of the window as soon as he saw what Aria was doing and the boy in him jumped out. He exclaimed, "You're making her fly!?!?! That's awesome!!! Can I try too?"
Aria tried to shush him before all the others heard him. But it was too late. All the boys in the room had heard him and began clustering around Aria, "You're a wind bender? Nice!" Boy 1 said.
Boy 2: "Even I have some affinity with the wind, but making people fly!?!?!"
Boy 3: "That's high level."
Boy 4: "Can we do something like this with fire too?"
Boy 5: "I wanna fly too!!!!"
The boy who had shouted, "Oh no. It's my turn first. Then you guys can go."
Julia: "No she's my sister. Let me complete my ride."
Aria: "....." She thought, "Am I some kind of fair ride person." The kids looked at her with such an expectant expression that Aria could not refuse. She sighed and said, "Make two lines."
As soon as the boys and Julia got in two lines, she began to make one person from each line fly with one hand.
All the boys were really excited and played with her. Aria could not refute the fact that she rather enjoyed practicing her bending while playing with all those kids. She also enjoyed their faces full of awe and admiration as she showed them many tricks she had picked up at the academy. Some of the boys even asked her for some tips. One overly extrovert even asked Aria if she could be his teacher?
Among all the fun and enjoyment, no one noticed a girl standing in a corner of the room. A beautiful girl, wearing a pretty blue dress and with her golden long hair open, which fell to her waist. It seemed like Beth did not like Aria coming and playing with all those boys. But as usually happens when too many kids are in a place, nobody paid attention to the one girl who was sulking in a corner.
Aria enjoyed herself so much that she did not know where the whole afternoon went. She only noticed that it was already dark when head butler Leo led some other servants into the hall with the tea. Aria did not like tea, she had never did. So she filled up on some pastries which were served. As Aria was eating, Julia came and sat down beside her with a tea cup in her hand.
