What Party? pt.2

Alyuura's hand was grasped by Lucas. Alyuura glanced at Lucas who was apparently smiling at him.

"Don't sulk, you spoiled bunny. If you sulk, I'll kiss you right now."

Alyuura was stunned, she had never seen Lucas smile like that. To Alyuura, it was a very charming smile. Although Alyuura often saw handsome actors in the movies she watched on television, Lucas' face was much more handsome than theirs.

And after Alyuura noticed, Lucas was apparently wearing more formal clothes than usual.

He looks absolutely perfect.

Oh no, he's just perfect. There is no flaw in him.

Can you tell what Lucas flaws?

"Why did you---"

"Save your questions, they're waiting for us."

Alyuura and Lucas now stepped towards the place in the palace that was used as the venue for the lavish event. From the top floor, at the end of the stairs, the voices of the people talking there could be heard. There is also jazz music playing melodious.

Alyuura just realized that the place had been decorated with much more festive and luxurious decorations. Lots of parts of the walls as well as the things there were glittering and golden yellow.

Alyuura was sure that Lucas had spent a lot of money on the event.

Even the one thing that was there was more expensive than the price of all of Alyuura's limbs added up.

But the crowd there made Alyuura feel nervous. Even though she didn't know what event Lucas was holding, Alyuura still felt nervous. She was afraid that she would make a mistake that would ruin the event.

Now bad images appeared in Alyuura's mind. She began to think excessively, starting with her being the one who spoke the wrong way, to the point where she imagined that she had fallen because of an accidental collision. All those fantasies made Alyuura feel nauseous, she was already starting to feel uncomfortable in her stomach.

Lucas felt an uncomfortable feeling from Alyuura, it was obvious that Alyuura was nervous. Alyuura's face was flat but her eyes were full of anxiety. Lucas shook his head slowly, for a moment he lowered his eyes while thinking.

"Are you nervous?"

"a-a little hehe." Alyuura stuttered, she who was imagining things at the time was surprised by Lucas' question.

"If you want, I can keep them down until the end of the show." Lucas said that with a sharp and straight look to all the guests who attended the Lucas event.

"You are very strange," said Alyuura.

"Strange? For what reason do you say I'm weird?" Lucas asked. Even though his tone sounded displeased, Lucas wasn't actually angry at Alyuura at all.

"Because of what you said earlier. Why did you invite them here if you're only going to make them look down for the whole event and not be able to enjoy the event at all?" asked Alyura. She smiled widely and gripped Lucas's hand tighter. She convinced Lucas as well as strengthened herself. "I'm fine. I'm just not used to this kind of atmosphere. You all look dignified and glamorous. I'm feeling a little inferior, that's all."

Lucas nodded slightly. She understood the situation Alyuura was in.

But it seems that the understanding that Lucas got is different from the understanding that other people think.

"The maids are so stupid, and the make-up I called seem to have neglected their duties to make you feel inferior like this," Lucas said with a frown on his face.

Alyuura reflexively shook her head. "Don't blame them. They do their best. I don't mean because of my appearance. But because I don't come from among the most respected people like you. I'm worried that my presence beside you will affect other people's view of you."

"Once they dare to think like that, they will experience difficulties in their lives," Lucas said easily.

Alyuura immediately nudged Lucas with her elbow. "You can't be like that. I mean, you can't be like that. Everyone has the right to have their own opinion. Just like you and I, we have our own opinions about other people. Besides, I want to be closer to a lot of people, I have to learn. overcome my shyness. But... keep me company."

Alyuura smiled brightly, blushing so much that it fascinated Lucas. Lucas cleared his throat and tried to hide his feelings in front of Alyuura.

"Alright, don't be bothered by them. They're no match for you."

Alyuura tried to understand and interpret Lucas's words, Alyuura received a compliment from Lucas. A very pleasant thing and made Alyuura flattered. Lucas rarely praised her, Lucas usually always said that Alyuura was weak, troublesome, and stupid, even though Lucas didn't really mean it. Lucas just has a hard time conveying something in the form of compliments or kind words for the people he cares about.

Lucas was too stiff.

"Yes, and you are the best." Alyuura then turned her gaze towards the guests who were there, all of them wearing luxurious dresses and suits. Alyuura began to be curious about what event Lucas was holding. "Lucas."

"Hmm?" Lucas who was also observing the guests there turned to Alyuura.

"Sorry I'm presumptuous to ask, err...what event is this?" asked Alyura. "I'm surprised to suddenly have an event like this in your palace."

Alyuura did spend most of her time on the top floor of the palace. The palace was too large for Alyuura to go around, so there were rooms and places in the palace that Alyuura didn't frequent too often. So Alyuura had no idea that the place was already decorated and decorated for this party.

Lucas also didn't tell Alyuura beforehand about this party, therefore Alyuura was surprised because without any notification she was immediately dressed to attend the party.

But that's not the main problem for Alyuura.

Alyuura was nervous when dealing with many people. Especially if those people are important guests. Alyuura didn't like it when she was faced with a situation like this. She much prefers to spend her time in silence and away from crowds like this.

Truly deafening.

Hm, it seems that Alyuura and Lucas are very compatible, because they really like a calm and quiet atmosphere. Without being surrounded by dazzling lights and ear-ringing noises.

"You'll find out later. You better watch your step, you could fall if you're not careful. You're so careless." It was Lucas's habit to say things that hurt Alyuura's feelings. Although Alyuura was never offended because she knew what Lucas meant was good.

An answer that Alyuura didn't like. Though Alyuura really wanted to know what was done at the party. But Lucas still doesn't seem to want to tell Alyuura about it.
