THE NEXT DAY

-AT 7:30 PM

Alexander was looking extremely handsome in his black tuxedo. Aria was looking stunning, like a goddess in her long black gown.

All eyes were on them as soon as they made an appearance. Aria's arms locked in his as they walked on the red carpet, leading inside. But of course, before they could enter the place, medias attacked them.

They threw questions after questions at them without giving them the time to reply.

"Are the rumors true, Mr Black? Is it true that this girl is with you for money?"

"What is your partner's name for tonight? She is very beautiful. Is she one of your night stands?

"Who is this lady?"

"Have you finally found someone to spend your life with Mr Black? If so, care to introduce future Mrs Alexander Black?"

Alexander held Aria tighter to him as they made their way through the media people inside.

As soon as they were inside, Anna hugged Aria, "I'm so glad to see you again!"

Aria returned the hug even though she was surprised at first, "I didn't know that you would be here."

"All the Blacks are invited sweetheart and turns out that I'm a Black." saying that Anna chuckled before her eyes fall on Aria's dress, "Oh my god! you look gorgeous! Simply stunning!"

"Same goes for you." Anna was wearing a black gown too. It was beautiful but not as beautiful as Aria's dress.

"Thank you!!",Anna gave her a bright smile. Anna turned to Alexander, "Hey Alex"

Alexander gave her a curt nod in response, "Good to see you, Anna."

"Are two like a -thing- now?"Anna asked, raising an eyebrow. Aria glanced at Alexander before then back at Anna.

Anna was happy for Alexander to finally settle down in his life. If there was anyone that Alex regarded as a sister then it was Anna.

"Well, who do we have here?" Alex's mother approached them with her husband and two sons.

"Good to see you again, Mrs Black." Aria smiled at her which she happily return, "I'm delighted to see you again, darling."

Bella was wearing a simple red dress. It suited her very well. Mike was wearing a red suit like his father while Kenzo was wearing a black one, matching with his wife.

"I believe we need an introduction again, what say Alex?" Anna asked Alexander.

"What do you mean?" Her husband, Kenzo asked and wrapped his hand around her waist.

"We already know Aria. She's Alexander's friend and a life-saver."Mike winked at Aria teasing her. Alexander noticed and grip Aria's waist possessively.

"Meet Aria, my girlfriend. She's mine.",He spoke in a volume that only his family heard, glaring at Mike.

They were all very happy for him especially his mother, "I'm happy and proud of you."

"Welcome to the family, dear. I've always wanted a daughter!" John exclaimed. Anna cleared her throat and asked her father-in-law, "Am I your son?"

"I mean- I don't know. I've just heard many people say that whenever their son gets a girlfriend or wife..Anna is my first daughter, you'll be my second." John smiled to Aria who smiled back.

"Welcome to our family, darling." Bella hugged Aria who hugged her back, "Thank you Mr and Mrs Black."

"Don't call me that! You'll either call me mother or mom."

"And you better call me dad or father."John added.

"Okay"Aria smiled at both of them.

"Welcome to the family sis.",Kenzo also hugged her which she returned then Mike hugged her after kenzo, "welcome Sissy!!!"

"I finally have a sister!" Anna kissed her cheeks. She's very friendly.

"Why do I feel like I'm married?" she asked Alexander once they all went to talk to some people.

Alexander chuckled, "who knows how they'll treat you after marriage if they're treating you like this now?"

"I love your family. They're really nice." Aria really liked all the people in his family. "Where's your grandfather?"

"He doesn't usually comes to these things." Alexander replied.

"Alexander!" a woman's voice shouted from behind them. They turned their heads and saw a woman probably the same age as Aria walking towards them.
