"made any friends yet?" He asked.
"didn't get the chance to" she sulked, because of her growing numbers of admirers all the girls that would have turned out to be her friend became envious of her and thus loathed her.
He understood what she meant so he chuckled.
"your brothers are coming back next weekend"
"really?!" her initially gloomy eye lit up energetically, she was really excited by the news, for the past one week she had missed the company of her half brother, she was reminded several times of all the times they came to visit Grandma at Sunflare city, it was a whole hell of fun in their company. It has been over five years that they last saw but she had a very good impression of the two of them.
who were her brothers?
Elara brothers were none other then Marzen and Marcus.
Marzen and Marcus, both twins but were splitting images of the other. One was quiet and cool while the other was lousy and overly energetic, the only thing they had in comment was their blinding handsomeness.
"mmhmm" He replied.
"that's great! i have missed them a lot already" she jubilated.
"go and refresh yourself I'll call you when I'm done with dinner"
"okay I'll be in my room" she said then went upstairs to her room. first thing she did was take a quick shower then throw her exhausted self on the bed. it didn't take any time and she was off to Dreamland.
"Elara!"
Flynn's shout from downstairs woke her up few hours later.
"coming!" she exclaimed back drowsily then rushed to tidy her appearance before giving downstairs.
It was just the two of them so the dishes weren't made in abundance, it was just a simple dinner of pasta and a few side dishes.
As Elara ate she suddenly was reminded of her grandma. "Hey Dad have you heard from Grandma?"
"not really why?" he asked back.
She shrugged in return "it's been a couple of months already that she went on her trip and no one has heard from her, I'm just worried that's all"
"Your grandma is a Voyager, she travels a lot. it's rare to see her in a place for a long period of time." He responded totally showing no signs of being worried.
"don't worry I'm sure when she feels like she'll definitely contact us okay?"
Nodding her head she went back to her dinner, soon enough they were done with eating. Elara had eaten quite a lot so she decided to take a stroll and help her stomach digest.
Their house was surrounded by woods so a stroll the woods, with the calming breeze it was quite helpful digesting her food but her stroll don't last long cause she received a call from her father to head back home.
"Dad what is it?".
She met him all dressed when she got back home, he looked like he was going somewhere.
"yeah I'm attending a family friend party, I don't feel alright leaving only you at home, so you should come with me" he said.
She didn't also want to be left alone in this house so she readily agreed to follow him "I'll just change and be down in minute"
After few hours of driving they arrived at a mansion in the far outskirts of Oakswood city. The mansion was parked with different people, if it had been a college party the place would have been straddling with youths but here there was a moderate amount of youths and also of adults, it seem like her father every other adult had come with a young companion.
"Flynn! long time no see" one of her dad's friends walked up to them the moment they walked into the house.
"Trevor it's been quite long indeed, Ten years right?" Flynn asked back.
"yeah that's right_huh? who's this?" the man eyes met Elara.
"My daughter" Flynn answered back then proceeded to introduce Elara and the man.
"Hello Uncle Trevor" Elara greeted politely.
The man seemed satisfied with her politeness that he let out a laugh "Flynn you've got a good daughter and a beautiful one at that, I envy you"
Flynn boasted back "it's my luck"
"I wish I had a daughter like yours or even a granddaughter but mine keeps causing troubles here and there"
maybe because of this sentence the two men conversation suddenly turned into a matchmaking dialogue. Elara felt awkward listening to her father's friend desperately try to match-make her with his family, he had literally listed out his family tree but her father had a way of brushing him off
She cut them off "Dad can I go over there?" She pointed to the long corner table outlined with various kind of foods.
"yeah but be careful" He agreed.
"okay" she gave a quick reply and zoomed off like a puff of smoke.
There was a while lot of meals on the long table by somehow none of them looked appetizing to her, after minutes of browsing through the table she finally settled for a plate filled with fruits.
