"Only for tonight, be my lover," said Sean reassuring doubt in Asya's eyes.
Asya was a little choked up by Sean's statement. However, Asya had to understand. After all, just for tonight, right? The girl then took Sean's hand, and held the man's strong hand.
Sean returned Asya's grip. "Please act as natural as possible. Pretend I'm your boyfriend. Only for tonight," said Sean glancing at Asya who was next to him.
"Mm." Asya only answered him with a mumble. Until she let Sean pull her up, took her hand warmly and entered the party area through the front door. So no one knows that Asya and Sean came out of the maid's room.
"Mr. Sean, Mr. Crish and Mr. Arman are just looking for Master, they said they will soon have a dance," said one of the security guards who had been guarding security in the front yard.
Sean didn't show any expression. "I just picked up my girlfriend. I'll be right in," said Sean. The man then pulled Asya's body further into the hall. The glare of the light and the faint sound of the song being played greeted Asya and Sean's arrival. Asya was transfixed by the sight of the party being held.
So many people who have put on their best dresses and dresses are now enjoying the party. Asya is the first time to feel this very warm atmosphere. Plus, a very handsome man was now holding her hand. Asya wants to enjoy this party, even if just for once.
"Oh, Sean? Where have you been?" asked Sonya, walking slowly towards Sean as soon as she caught sight of her son.
"I just picked up my girlfriend." Sean replied.
"Girlfriend?" Sonya asked raising an eyebrow. She then glanced at Asya who was nervous, Asya didn't know how to react. Because you could say Asya is a type of girl who is stiff when she meets people who are above her age. Realizing this, Sean immediately took Asya's body, wrapped his arms around her shoulders.
Asya immediately smiled. "Good night, Auntie," Asya greeted as she stretched out her hand and kissed the back of Sonya's hand.
Sonya just smiled a little. "You're really Sean's girlfriend?" asked Sonya doubtfully.
Asya chuckled. "Oh, yes, Auntie. He he. Introduce my name is Lia," said Asya composing.
Sonya smiled again. "Oh my gosh, Lia. Auntie just found out. It's because Sean rarely talks about a girl to his mom. No wonder Sean has been acting weird lately. Maybe because he's in love with you," said Sonya, laughing. Asya just replied with a smile.
"Then Auntie stays first. You can enjoy the party with Crish. And Sean, don't be tempted by the other girls at this party, okay?" the old woman ordered.
Sean just rolled his eyes lazily. Next, without waiting for an answer from Sean, Sonya immediately walked over to where Arman—her husband was—to enjoy the party and talk about Sean and his girlfriend to her husband.
Sean immediately released his grip, making Asya glance at the man. "What is it?" asked Asya.
"I feel uncomfortable. We'd better be close and make out in front of Lathia," Sean muttered.
Asya furrowed her brow. "Whatever you say. I'm just doing what you want, tch!" Asya pouted annoyed.
Sean did not answer, the man preferred to remain silent. "I am thirsty. I'm leaving for a while, don't follow me," Sean said as he walked away from there.
Asya just hissed. Sean is just acting casually. To be honest, Asya somewhat regretted accepting the man's offer. However, Asya only intends to help. So the girl will just enjoy it. At his age, attending a party of this size was a stroke of luck. Because of that, Asya decided to ignore Sean's sometimes annoying words.
The girl finally glanced here and there, staring one by one the corner of the place filled with many guests. They must all be Crish's friends and family and relatives. What a fun welcome party.
Asya also saw several maids busy serving the guests. Asya doesn't know if her mother sees Asya now. But, Asya hopes that Alma will be happy because Asya can attend this party. After almost two minutes just glancing here and there while talking to her own heart, Asya decided to take a banquet in the form of a strawberry chocolate-flavored cup cake which was a few meters away from her. When the girl was about to take the cake, suddenly someone from nowhere came to take the cake that Asya had been after. As a result, both of them were silent for a while when they realized that Asya's hand and someone's hand was holding the same cup cake.
Asya glanced at the person, how surprised she was when she found out that there was a tall man with a very handsome face now beside her. Instantly, Asya let go of her hand on the cake earlier. "A-ah sorry," said Asya slowly as she lowered her head. In her heart, Asya wondered, who is this very handsome man? Really made Asya hypnotized the first time she saw it.
"Sorry?" said the man while slightly bending his face to see Asya's face. "You can take the cake." He added.
Asya then shook her head as she looked at the man. "N-no need. I can take it at another table, hahaha," Asya refused softly while laughing crisply.
The man only smiled slightly at Asya's clumsy behavior, plus Asya's beautiful face which was like a successful moon made everyone, including the man, fascinated for a while. Asya noticed the man's smile and gaze, she was already embarrassed that she intended to leave. However, the man held it by holding Asya's arm. "Wait, may I know, what's your name?" asked the man.
Asya turned around with her mouth open. Didn't she hear wrong? The man asked Asya's name?
"I invited some of my middle and high school friends, as well as some family and relatives. I may not remember your name. Sorry, that's why I asked for your name," said the man after knowing the doubt he got from Asya's face.
Asya was silent digesting the tall and handsome man's question. She raised his eyebrows. Middle school, high school friends, family and relatives? What does that mean, the man in front of him asked whether he knew Asya or not? Because, Asya may feel foreign in his eyes. Right, Asya just came here. This party is only attended by certain people. And if the man in front of him doesn't notice Asya, can you be sure, Asya is an uninvited guest?
Suddenly, Asya was nervous when she realized this. Damn Sean, where is he? At a time like this Sean should be by Asya's side!
"Oh, that ... I ...." Asya stuttered. The girl didn't know what to say.
"He's my girlfriend," Sean interrupted suddenly while embracing Asya's body. Asya then held her breath because of that.
The man in front of Asya was quite surprised by Sean's words. "Girlfriend?" He asked.
"Hmm, yes." Sean nodded casually. He then looked at Asya seriously, the man's gaze pierced right into Asya's retina. "And Lia, she's Crish. My big brother, the only one," Sean introduced.
