When she saw them, she was in disbelief that she started crying.
[Is she crying?]
[Is that still the cold boss we know?]
[Am I seeing my things? Is that Faith Parker shedding tears]
"Mama. Why are you ruining your image as one of the cold and cruel businesswomen in the country and also in the industry?" Arielle said calmly, but the people around heard her loud and clear.
[Did I hear well? Is our idol called Miss Cold-face Mama?]
[Do they know each other?]
People were whispering, but the girls didn't care about them.
"Don't you dare! Both of you left me here for five good years. I missed you baby." Her cracking and angry voice ran everywhere but soon calmed down when she embraced Arielle.
"Both of you get your shit together. People are watching us and I don't like seeing people who are portrayed to be weak." Aurora's cold voice made everyone flinch. Those who were looking at her turned their heads immediately. They saw the cold faces. Without even waiting for their answer, she got in the car.
"Don't mind her. She is trying to play strong and prevent herself from crying," Arielle whispered to Faith, not only as a way to soothe her from getting heartbreak but always to prevent her sister from getting angry.
[That woman's voice is so terrifying?]
[Did you see her stunning cold face?]
[She is even colder than Faith Parker.]
[I never thought I would see Faith Parker afraid of someone. Hahahaha]
The people at the airport were left discussing what they had just seen and discovered. They knew how dangerous it could be if they leaked it. Hence, they only shared pictures of Arielle at the airport, making the citizens go crazy.
The silence in the car was suffocating, but even if Faith wanted to talk, she was afraid, because she knew her best friend was not the same woman she was five years ago.
"Why are you so quiet?" Arielle's soft and calm voice was heard. She sympathized with Faith.
"Why should I be talking?" Faith asked in sadness and pain.
"Since when did you become a coward?" Aurora said softly.
"Aurora!" Arielle snapped in disbelief as they both looked at the cold and mature woman next to them.
As Aurora looked at her best friend. She knew that each one of them had changed, but she was in pain cause her friend mainly changed because of her. Thinking of this, tears found themselves out.
"Shit, why are you crying?" the panic in Arielle's voice was evident. She couldn't remember when her big sister had cried. She didn't know what she said was wrong, but her heart was in pain as she heard her crying. "Can you stop crying? I will keep quiet and won't talk anymore. Okay? I am sorry." She waited for her to stop but found that she was weeping even more than previously. This scene made her start crying too.
Looking at the two crying, Faith sighed. She wondered why Aurora was crying cause as much as she knew, her best friend had become stronger and more brave than before. She knew that she had to put aside her fears and ask what was wrong because, after all, she was still her best friend and was always there for them.
"What's wrong, Aurora? Why are you crying? See that Arielle has also started crying." she said softly.
"Sorry. It's my fault you are like that, Faith." Aurora murmured, but they heard it making them freeze.
Angrily, Arielle wiped her tears before looking at her sister coldly. "Don't tell me that you are crying for such a stupid matter." On the other hand, Faith also nodded her head, agreeing with Arielle's words.
"What? Do you think that that is a small matter?" Aurora asked them angrily. "Can't you see that she is a different person to the person she was five years ago? Unlike us who were always cold throughout our lives, she was always jovial, always joking around, never kept quiet, and also had a smile on her face throughout. What about now? If it weren't for my selfishness and desire to become successful, she wouldn't have become cold or people wouldn't have given her cold face as a nickname. I am sorry, Faith."
"Well, aren't you here now? I am sure that that title will come to you soon," Faith said, a half-joke making them chuckle and have smiles on their faces. "Good, I don't want to blame you. I had to grow up soon, but at least you are here now. I will get some rest."
"Yeah yeah," Aurora said while smiling.
"Come on, we have arrived. We only have a few hours before the party starts, so you two had better rest for two hours before getting ready."
'Sorry, but we slept on the plane and I want to look stunning at this party." Arielle said mischievously.
"Nope. You can't be in the limelight and it isn't your party. If you want that, then you better wait for your birthday party." Arielle said seriously since she wanted to be low-key.
"No, we can't. As far as I know, Luciana and her mother will still find their way to that party. So why should we be low-key and let them be in the spotlight? And as far as I know, that bitch, if they see us, they will try their best to humiliate us, hence we have to be. If to humiliate them as we walk in. Faith, what do you think?" Arielle asked Faith cause she knew her sister might still refuse, but if they both insisted, she wouldn't have any other choice but to accept.
"I think what she is saying is true. It's better if you start your revenge with this party. Take it as your opening party or welcoming party." Faith supported Arielle as always since she was used to spoiling her.
"Do I have a choice?" Aurora asked helplessly as she looked at them.
"Nope," they said unisonly and smiling.
"Take us to Dawn Peach Beauty Spa & Styling," Faith said to the driver.
"Anything you wanted to tell me?" Aurora asked, since she knew that there were a lot of things waiting ahead for her here and it was better if she was told earlier.
"Honestly, when you told me you were coming back to the country, I wanted to tell you that both of you should accompany me to the party. As you know, The Powells' company is our largest competitor but it's not much of a competitor since we are at par. Most people have been wondering who is the owner of The Dawn Peach company since we are at the top and in every industry."
"Did you want us to accompany you to show them respect as the richest family in the city to avoid quarrels or ?" Arielle asked since she was confused as to why they had to go to the party if their company was at par with theirs.
