Back in the main hall, sensing the problem was cleared, George continued his speech
"As I was saying earlier, on behalf of the Fisher family were deeply glad you could make it, tonight we will be passing an important announcement and an Unveiling, be free to interact with each other before we begin officially" George said and got of the stage earning a handful of applause
Just then Damion, Ned, Theodore and Kendra walked in majestically instantly stunning the people in the hall
They were quite surprised to see these teens together as they hardly hang out together
Ned was known as the nerdy introvert, he hardly interacted with anyone, Theodore was an extrovert who was always socializing and then we have Kendra
Kendra had an icy attitude at times which kept these superficial teens away just few were able to get close to her
But now they all walked into the hall together with an astonishing handsome guy who carried an indifferent expression
"I think everyone is looking at us" Ned pushed up his glasses and spoke slowly
" Is that so, I knew it" Theodore said smiling
" Knew what" Kendra asked
" Well, I know we're all amazingly good looking but we can't rival a face and look like that" Theodore said pointing at Damion who was operating his phone
" You're right" Kendra said
" I mean look at him he really stole the show now and yet he doesn't care, he's just on his phone " Theodore dramatically said
" Yeah what are you doing on your phone "
" Setting up a Timer for 30 minutes " Damion replied
" Why" Kendra asked
" So that I can leave " Damion said
" You can't leave until the gathering is over, you guys didn't tell him" Kendra turned towards Ned and Theodore
" Ha I must have forgotten "Theodore said rubbing his neck not looking at Damion, Ned on his own directly took off his glasses and started wiping them
" I knew it, it was quite strange you guys made me that offer" Damion said giving them a strange look
" Well it be bygones you know what am saying " Theodore said
" We will continue this later " Damion said
" Alright who is going to introduce Theodore first" Kendra asked
" I think you should go first" Ned said
" Yeah, let's keep this issue under the bridge plus you parents has been giving us the eye for a long time now" Theodore said pointing towards her parents
" Fine, come along" Kendra said moving towards her parents with Gustavo
" Kendra, your late is everything alright" Jack asked
" Yeah Dad just some slight delays" Kendra said
Stacy's friend kept throwing glances at Damion before whispering to Her
" Girl you didn't tell me that her friend was the hot new guy in school"
" Yeah he's looking more hot in that suit" Stacy whispered back
" Who is this gentleman" Jack said looking towards Damion
" Sorry, this is Gustavo Adolfo, Gustavo this is Mr. Jack Cartel my Dad and Mrs Evelyn Cartel my aunt..."
" She means Mum and it's a pleasure to meet you" Evelyn said cutting off Kendra
" Yeah what she said" Kendra said rolling her eyes
" Well Mr and Mrs Cartel it's a pleasure meeting you" Damion greeted with basic courtesy
" Ahem" Stacy faked a cough
Going towards Stacy and wrapping her hands on her shoulder
"And how can I forget, this is my Sister Stella Cartel and her friend..."
" Maggie Rees " Stacy friend completed
" It's also nice meeting you guys" Damion greeted them calmly
" You know we attend the same school maybe we will run into each other" Stacy said
" Not sure am looking forward to it" Damion said looking away
" Yeah, wait what..." Stacy asked with a stunned face
" Okay, Gustavo are you alone I can't seem to see your parents" Evelyn asked
" Eve..."
" Am alone my parents couldn't make it" Damion casually cut of Jack and answered Evelyn
" What, could be more important that this" Evelyn asked livid
" Mrs Cartel I don't feel comfortable discussing this so maybe another time" Damion cooly dismissed the topic
" You ..." Evelyn gnashed her teeth in anger
How dare that brat talk to her that way she was about to lash at him before Kendra came up
" Okay, Gustavo you've met my family they really nice but since am not the only one bringing you you need to meet others" Kendra said joyfully
Although she was curious about his parents, she knew it was topic that was avoided so she was a bit uncomfortable when Evelyn asked him about his parents
What happened next gave her joy, that Iceblock cooly dismissed her. HA suits her right for being obsessed with connections
Just in time for Ned to come over, She hurriedly handed Damion over to Ned
" We'll talk later" Kendra whispered to him before going back to her family
" Ermm Gustavo my family is a bit strange don't be upset if the say some words you don't like, I will surely stop them if the do" Ned said nervously
" Ned who is this" a cute looking girl around 12 years asked
" This is my friend Gustavo, Gustavo this is Sarah my sister, come let's meet my parents" Ned said walking towards a couple
The man was in his early fifties donned in formal attire while the woman was in her late forties also donned in a formal attire
" Mom Dad this is Gustavo, Gustavo these are my Parents" Ned introduced his parents
" Hello, My name is Henry Cartel and this is my Wife Michelle, Ned talks so much about you, which is strange as he hardly talks about anyone..."
" Dad" Ned cut his father blushing as his face turned red
" It's a pleasure to meet you guys, he talks about you too" Damion replied back cooly
" Hmm, so it's strange you're alone, I mean your parents aren't here" Henry said
" Dad..."
"Yes its strange however they couldn't make it" Damion cut off Ned calmly
" What a shame, I hear you attend the same school with Ned, it's quite an expensive school " Michelle said strangely
" Is it ? " Damion asked back
" Ha wonderful, please look out for our boy" Henry said after scrutinizing him
" It's fine, please excuse me" Damion said and walked away from Ned family
Ned wanted to follow him but Damion refused
" You've been away from them for a while plus you were excited to to meet them, don't worry am not bothered by their words, I want to give you space"
Ned nodded and left after those words, just when Damion was about to rest, Theodore came out from nowhere and grabbed him
" Come on let's meet my parents before they start with their announcements"
