Chapter 7

After a while, she had thought about it because it is unlikely for "Anaya" to be given to a boy. So, she decided to ring her all-time best friend Aliya. Despite Aliya living in town, while Aster isn't they are such good friends. Not only they are best friends but, they are like sisters since both of them knew each other for such long times already. She and Anaya had been friends for 6 years already and that just makes them more closer.

Aliya had always been the first person who Aster sees when she is sad or just emotionally unstable. Not only that, but Aliya also helps whenever Aster needs to go grocery shopping whenever she needed. Just as the phone rings Aliya had accepted the call "sup" the simple word her friend had always greet her with puts a smile on her face. "Hey, I need your help" Aster responds to the other "Woah, chill girl what's the occasion do need to kill someone?" Now, despite her saying that Aliya does not mean that. She would never do any murder attempt well, that's according to Aliya so no one knows if she said the truth or just lies.

"Anyways, Aster my beloved what is it that you need help with" Aliya hears a cough from the other side of the speaker "you see, my grandma forced me to go on a blind date that she somehow managed to got me into". Just as Aster finishes her sentence, Aliya became a choking hazard " heh!? Why!?" Hearing this was her friend reply she rolls her eyes "well, she surely didn't tell me why she did it-" she cuts her own words "actually she said I'm broke!". Then again, Aliya chokes on her own saliva " this is so funny!" Aster turns grumpy "oh, shut up it's not funny!" Hearing that her friend is serious, her laughter quiets down immediately.

"Right, so what do you need to do?" Changing the subject quickly "well, I need you to have your spare clothes with you" she says to her friend "noted". " Also, I may be going to the restaurant you work at" Aliya works as a waiter at a fancy restaurant and now right now, she is on her break "all alright, no problem or whatsoever captain!" Hearing this, Aster rolls her eyes. "Ey! If you roll your eyes once again, I'm sure you will find your brain back there" this doesn't surprise her that Aliya knows when she rolls her eyes. It happens all the time especially when they're on calls with each other "so, you going here now or?" The other girl questions "um, I'm not sure nana said her friend is picking me up". " friend?" She repeats "yeah her friend Anaya I think I don't know" Aster shrugs "Anaya? Is that a new friend of her?" Now, despite being her grandchild, Aliya knows her nanas friends much better than she does. The girl had never heard of that name in her nanas best friend group of buy just hearing their name.

"So, you think it's a new friend?" Aster could feel that her friend just shrugs "well, I mean I reckon it is just not too sure" all she could do is sigh "oh! I have an idea" her friend sudden exclaim "what?" She replies quickly. "Why... Don't you.." The other drags her words making her snap "dude! Just tell me!" A giggle can be heard from her friend "why don't you ask you nana" all of a sudden as if everyone could hear what her friend had suggested and facepalm. "Oh, my god of course!" And just like that, she felt like her brain cells had died "why didn't we thought about that sooner!?" Aster quickly ends the call.

When she ends the call she exclaims her nanas name "Julia!" Her sudden outburst caught the old woman in surprise "what is it that so important until you just need to give a heart attack". The younger face turns serious " who and when did you become friends with Anaya?" In return, her nana leans onto near her and slaps her "you almost gave me a heart attack just because of that!?". The serious look on the younger changes io into a silly grin "well, can you please answer my question?" She pouts. "Well, it has been like a month already? I'm not sure my memory is not good" Aster furrows her eyebrows "you didn't tell me?" She looks at her nana with puppy eyes.

"Well, you don't usually meet my friends so I thought why not just let you be?" The younger huffs and changes the subject "anyway, when are they going to arrive here?" Her nana looks at the clock on the wall "probably a few solid minutes". "Tch, I bet she meant a few hours," she thought as she rolls her eyes "hey! Aren't you forgetting something?" A deep voice in her head says to her. Aster looks around to remember what she had forgotten then, the sudden realization hits her like a truck "the fairy!" She screams in her mind.

"Yeah thought you forgot about that" she began to panic but also trying to hide it so her nana doesn't ask questions about what's going on. Without a second thought, she runs upstairs into her room leaving Julia her nana who just looks in the direction where she had run off to with a weirded expression. She says "I think I have grown a weirdo" then goes back to the tea that she made while Aster was talking to Aliya. With the weirdo, who on the other hand is apologising to the little fairy "I am so, sorry that I forgot about you- I mean I did not forget about you totally" she says to the fairy while whispering the last word of her sentence. "Really? You didn't forget about me?" Aster nods enthusiastically "then what's my name?" The question caught the human off guard "um uh Lily?" She stutters. "It's not Lily! But, Tryamon! See? You did forget about me!" Aster lets out a nervous chuckle.
