Hope

At dancing event, everything around them is as cheerful as ever. Aria is smiling brightly as she danced with Nathan, if anyone would see her glowing face they would not even imagine that she was disowned by her family a few hours back.

After dancing a couple of hours, she sat down at one of the table with her aching legs. She can feel someone boring her back with burning glares but she opt to neglect them. She busied herself looking at Nathan who is dancing with a old woman when a girl tapped her shoulder.

"Can I sit here please" she asked cutely. She is of almost same age as her and she had blue eyes. Her black hair reached her waist and she looked totally adorable.

"Sure" Aria smiled pointing a chair beside her.

"I am Hope. I was actually betrothed to Nathan and we are childhood sweethearts" she introduced herself.

Aria froze and her family smirked. See, another secret…
