She was ready to leave from the work want to prepare her meeting with his parents. She also has asked to leave early from her superior and give the reason she had family meeting. Luckily for her she has done with her work for today.
She try to calm but cant. Her mind starts to wonder how the meeting will go. Will his parents accept her? Or if they didn't approve their marriage? What should she do?
Many question starts to play in her head makes she nervous. She really can't concentrate on her way home. She knows that Armin got the alias the kind prince.
At first Mavis didn't believe that there still a businessman that will be so kind but when she meet Armin she really thinks that God bless her. She wonder if she will fall in love with him. Maybe not.

"Miss Aberra? This way please." Mavis just nod and followed the waiter lead. She surprise when see that Armin was already there and with someone that she thinks familiar it.
"Why you're so early?" Mavis asked. Armin just want to stand but a hand hold his shoulder.
"Oh, Mavis." A young man smile widely to her and pull the seat and gesture her to seat. Ash also take seat beside her.
"What would you like? Or would you okay with our menu. Well Armin's quite picky." He said and tell their menu.
That stupid brat. Armin really want to tie Ash up. He really can't relax when Ash like this. Likes to flirt whenever and where ever he go.
She blinked back when she realized that man was Ash. She start to gaze Ash and Armin repeatedly. Were they siblings? But they don't have the similarity between their face.
Seeing Armin faced frowned she wonder is she has done something wrong. Feeling the tension from Armin made she starts nervous. Ash talks like no stop with her. Mavis really need to do something want to less the tension she felt.
"Ash why you're here?" she cut Ash.
"Armin invite me to join for his dinner with family. Well I'm his brother." His response made Mavis shocked.
"You're his brother?" she asked didn't believe it.
"Not by blood okay. I'm more like his adopted brother. I heard that his younger brother was busy and he tell me to replace him." Ash explain confidently.
Mavis understands. She want to ask again when she heard the doors open. Her eyes turn to wide thinking if Armin's parent was here. She looks and see the couple. She stunned seeing the couple appearances.
Mr Rivera still handsome even with he has reach the golden stage same as Mrs Rivera quite beautiful than usually woman within their age. Is this what they're saying that the rich people do have probability to care their health?
"Mavis this was my parents. My father Alex and my mother Emma. Mother and father this was Mavis." Armin introduce them.
"Oh, isn't she that…" Emma stopped her sentence when noticed Armin shake his head. She smiled trying to cover her sentence then. "Nice to meet you, Miss Mavis. You're quite pretty."
"Yeah, like you back then." Alex tease Emma. Emma just pinch his waist.
"Don't mind him. Let's sit." Emma said and they take their seat. "It's been too long Ash." She greet the young man.
"Armin didn't tell me that you'll join us." she start the conversation while waiting the waiter set their dish.
"Well, just last minute arrangement because of someone." Armin said.
"That brat always like that. Sorry to trouble you like that." Emma turn to Mavis. Seeing the girl being silent made she chuckled. She just hopes that she will bring back light to certain someone.
"Enough of that brat. I heard that you two will get married. Congratulations to both of you." Alex bring his glass of wine make the toast and drink it.

Their meet was done. She didn't drive here because parking area always full. So she was waiting her cab when a hand pat her shoulder. Immediately turn and see Ash beside her. She take a deep breath trying to calm herself.
Sometimes Mavis like to think something that can never explain with science. When Ash beside her she relief that it's not what the ghost.
"Waiting for cab? Armin told me to find you. He will sent us." Ash tell Mavis.
"It's okay. I've call the cab." She refused it.
"Oh, come on. He's here." Ash pull her hand and take her to Armin's car.
Mavis followed and take the back seat while Ash seat at front passenger. She's been thinking Ash and Armin relationship quite closed. Not she jealous just why their relations can be close.
"Mavis when you're going to move to my house." Armin look at Mavis using rear view mirror.
"Next month. Why?"
"Nothing just ask." His thoughts trying to remember something. "Well, there will be maid so don't worry about house work."
"I don't really care. I'm not some doting princess that can't do house work." She always helping Rina do the house work. So she really didn't care about that.
"Good to know. So do you plan to sell your house or rent it?" Armin really don't have the topic to say to Mavis. Besides if he didn't talk Ash will talk. He thinks it better that he ask Mavis.
"Maybe not. I don't think about that." She don't want to sell her apartment. The place was nice and she really like it. She just think her apartment will be her place to rest for sometimes.
"Want me to help you."
"Sure. Thanks." Mavis takes the offer. There are not many that she will brings to Armin place. She just accept it so she can have time to bond with Armin.
