Khalida mentally counts all of them with a business-like face.
Sorcha salutes Khalida when she gets off, and Khalida nods in return.
Asa whoops and throws her arms up, making Khalida crack a smile before regaining her composure.
“Alright, that’s everyone. Levi, your in charge until I come back, I’ll meet you there as I have some things to take care of. Everyone good? Alright, Sorcha, your with me.”
Asa smiles and kisses him back. She gets out of the cab and waits with Jason and Vic for the event to start.
The event begins with an orchestral intro and a woman that looks like a carbon copy of Khalida but taller and with longer hair enters, with Khalida coming in behind her in a dark blue, asymmetrical dress with a long sleeve and a high waist held up with a thin pearl and diamond belt that matches the diamond and pearl flower pins around her bun.
Sorcha returns to the rest of the group with a small smile.
A thin young man with black hair and golden eyes is also in the crowd but he is the only one not dressed nicely . His hands witch have just been washed are still a bit stained from dirt and he's wearing a white t shirt with faded and ripped blue jeans his feet are also bare
Khalida smiles at the room and curtsies before going to the group, but her mother leads her past them to the barefoot boy. Ms. Li sniffs slightly in disdain. "You are Mr. Tarwin's son, correct? Nic, this is my daughter, Khalida." Khalida smiles and curtsies a little. "How do you do?"
Asa looks behind her and smiles when she realizes that he's smiling at her.
Sorcha dips her head a little at Jason with a smile.
Levi sees khalida and the boy and the corners of his mouth turn down in such a miniscule fashion no one would even notice
Vic holds out his arm" care to dance? " he asks asa
Jason walks over and gently takes sorchas hand
Nic smiles and after looking like he was listening to someone focuses back on khalida " nice to meet you Khalida and yes Mrs. Li I am Mr. Tarwins son . " he says then looks at khalida again. " my name's Nicolas but you can call me nic nice to meet you sorry for my attire I was busy doing charity work and didn't feel like changing " he says with a slight smile. " and may I say you look stunning " he says to khalida.
