The next morning....
The Fiolet family came down from their respective hotel rooms to have their breakfast.
"Good morning mommy and daddy," greeted Fiolet as she saw her parents emerging from their room.
"Good morning, princess mommy and daddy, let's go down together for breakfast," Fiorin invited his daughter.
"Hey! Wait for me," called Yung to his family who was already entering the elevator.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, they held the elevator doors so they wouldn't close.
"Why is big brother in such a hurry?" Fiolet innocently asked.
"Oh... sweet sister, your handsome big brother is just too lazy to wait for this elevator to come up again, and I also want to have breakfast with all of you," replied Yung, feeling amused by his younger sister's antics.
"Oh, I see," she replied briefly.
Their parents watched their interaction with gentle smiles.
They arrived at the hotel restaurant, picked their breakfast choices, and brought them to the dining table.
After Fiolet finished choosing her breakfast, she walked over to the table where her parents and brother were sitting.
After saying grace, they ate calmly and occasionally discussed their plans to visit the mall across the street from their hotel.
"Mommy, later we're going to the mall over there. Would mommy and daddy like to come with me?" Fiolet asked.
"Of course, sweetheart, we'll accompany you. Mommy and daddy also want to visit the salon inside the mall," Fiorin replied to his daughter.
"Eh... why isn't your handsome big brother invited, hmm?" Yung asked, feeling a bit left out by his family.
"Oh... is big brother not busy? Didn't you say you'd finish half of your work here?" Fiolet asked, confused.
"Yes... I said that yesterday... but I finished it last night, so I can join you all today. I also want to see the atmosphere of this country," Yung replied to his sister.
"Alright, alright... we'll all go there after breakfast. Now finish your food," Oscar told his two children.
"Okay, mommy's handsome husband," Fiolet teased her daddy.
Mommy and Yung heard her and chuckled, while daddy Oscar just smiled shyly.
They finished their meal and headed straight to the nearby mall. This mall was larger than any Fiolet had visited in Country A, so she was a bit awestruck.
"Wow... this building is so big!" exclaimed Fiolet a bit loudly.
"Hey... my beautiful little sister, don't speak so loudly, it's embarrassing," scolded Yung, feeling a bit embarrassed as a few people looked their way upon hearing his sister's voice.
Fiolet, upon hearing her brother's reprimand, quickly scanned their surroundings and indeed saw a few pairs of eyes looking at them curiously. Fiolet just nodded and smiled awkwardly.
Yung and Fiolet followed their parents into the salon. Fiolet also wanted to trim her long hair to make it look tidier.
They spent 2 hours in the salon because mommy wanted to dye her hair darker and Fiolet was getting a facial treatment.
The two men accompanying them had nothing more to say as they waited for the two women they loved dearly. They sat down and occasionally went into a store to alleviate their boredom from waiting.
"Yung, this is only one store, there's the clothing store later," complained Oscar to his son.
"Hahaha... be patient, daddy, but I promise you Fiolet won't take long in the clothing store because she doesn't like shopping for a lot of clothes," replied Yung, chuckling a bit at his daddy's bored face.
"Yes... you're right, daddy's little girl doesn't like shopping for a lot of clothes because she thinks it's a waste of money since they won't be worn often. In this way, we'll easily persuade mommy to come home soon later," Oscar said, smiling broadly as he felt his daughter could save them in the clothing store later.
The two women they were waiting for finally emerged from the salon. They looked fresher and more charming than usual after their treatments.
"Let's go buy clothes we'll use for later tonight at the birthday event of mommy's future son-in-law," said Fiorin eagerly.
The whole family entered a branded store in the mall to buy the items they wanted.
As soon as they entered the store, Fiolet's eyes were drawn to a black dress displayed inside. Without much ado, Fiolet took the dress and placed it at the counter to be paid for by her daddy.
It didn't take long for them to finish buying the clothes they wanted for later that night. The family left the store and headed straight back to the hotel where they were staying.
At Bryce family mansion....
The family was having a peaceful lunch together. Only the clinking of utensils accompanied their lunch. Bryce, who usually initiated conversations with his parents, was silent and hadn't said anything since earlier. Rosey, seeing her son feeling troubled, smirked while looking at her husband.
Freddy, seeing his wife, gently pinched her thigh and then looked at his son who clearly looked sad.
"Bryce, tonight I'll accompany dad to our friend's event. Do you want to come too to relieve your boredom?" Rosey asked her son.
Bryce, hearing the question, just shook his head while looking at his parents.
"I can't join you guys, mom. I promised Lucas I'd come to his nephew's birthday party tonight," Bryce replied honestly.
"Oh, that sounds nice. So go ahead and don't be sad anymore. You'll surely meet Fiolet again later," replied Rosey.
They finished their meal and went to their respective rooms. Rosey and Freddy were getting ready to go to the hotel they had booked to celebrate their son's birthday.
"Lucas's reason for taking Bryce out sounds very good. Hehehe, I can't wait to see Bryce's expression when he sees Fiolet later," said Rosey enthusiastically.
The two of them headed to the hotel to see if everything was ready or not.
At the hotel where the event was taking place....
"Hi Rosey!" greeted Fiorin.
"Hi Fiorin, aren't you ready yet?" Rosey asked Fiorin, who had just arrived at Fiorin's room after she and her husband finished checking the supplies in the hotel's lower room.
"I just finished showering and will get ready now. You're also not made up yet, so let's do it together," Fiorin replied to her future mother-in-law.
The two of them quickly got ready because they wanted to be done quickly. They also planned to go to Fiolet's room later to help the girl with her makeup.
In Fiolet's room....
She had just finished cleaning herself in the bathroom and put on her dress. Fiolet stood in front of the mirror, looking at her appearance in the gown. Then she applied some powder and light makeup to her face.
After finishing her makeup, she looked at her appearance again and heard the doorbell ringing.
Ting... dong... ting... dong...
Fiolet looked to see who had come to her room and immediately opened the door after seeing who it was.
"Wow! You look so beautiful and sexy tonight, dear," said Bryce's mother and mommy as they entered.
"Surely later my son will be even more captivated by you, and I'm sure he will be very possessive of you later," Rosey said, still captivated by her future daughter-in-law.
"Oh mom... I feel embarrassed when you praise me like that, don't exaggerate praising me," replied Fiolet, feeling her face warm with embarrassment.
"I'm just speaking the truth, dear. Now sit in that chair, we'll add a little more touch to your face," said Bryce's mother.
The two parents then applied makeup to Fiolet's face seriously because they were going to reunite this long-awaited couple later.
At 5 PM, at Bryce family mansion....
Bryce was wearing a black suit and a wristwatch to complete his outfit. At first, he was confused why he had to dress like this just to attend Lucas' nephew's birthday party.
But after Lucas told him that his nephew recommended the suit to him because they knew Bryce wanted to come. Bryce wore the clothes Lucas had brought him earlier.
Lucas, who was waiting for Bryce to get ready, immediately looked up at his friend who was now walking down the stairs.
"Wow, Bryce! You look perfect with this outfit, I'm sure my nephew will like it because you're wearing the clothes he recommended," said Lucas, feeling happy to see his friend looking so handsome tonight.
"Enough compliments, Luc. Now let's go to the venue. The event will start in half an hour. I don't want us to be late because your nephew has been waiting for our arrival," Bryce replied as he walked out of the mansion.
"More precisely, your future wife can't wait for your arrival, buddy," Bryce thought to himself.
They headed to the hotel where the event was taking place. In the car, they only spoke minimally because Lucas had been observing Bryce constantly checking his phone.
"Be patient, Bryce. After you meet her, don't let her go so your longing will be fulfilled," Lucas encouraged Bryce.
Bryce just nodded and closed his eyes, leaning his head against the car seat to ease the longing in his heart.
At the hotel....
Here Bryce and Lucas were now, at the hotel where the event was taking place. Before opening the door to the room, Lucas suddenly received a call and told Bryce that he needed to take the call first. Lucas left Bryce alone in front of the door now.
