The Gala: Hannah

We stepped out of the limo into the light of flashing cameras. We gave little waves and moved quickly toward the building.

Reporters chirped questions at me. "What dress are you wearing? Would you like to thank anyone for your foundation? What is the meaning behind the charity?"

I stammered and my words froze in my throat.

I didn't know what to say. I wasn't even sure if I should say anything.

We never would talk to paparazzi before, but that was because they had been invading in our personal lives. This was for my charity. Shouldn't I reply?

Roman turned to them and spoke evenly with a polite smile on his lips.

"Thank you for all your questions. All our statement has been issued in the press release. While we appreciate your curiosity, we are the hosts and must get inside to greet our guests."
