Around 5 pm, Oriana's father reached home after work. He smiled delightfully at his wife and kissed her forehead. Then, he was curious about where his little princess and both of them went to her room.
Mrs. Summer whispered to her husband, “She fell asleep on the way home after her class.”
Mr. Summer can't wait to ask her daughter about her first day at school, went towards her daughter and tickled her to wake her up. While whining Oriana slightly opened her eyes and realized her beloved dad in front of her. Out of joy, she hugged her dad tightly and Mr. Summer brought her daughter downstairs. All of them had their teatime while listening to Oriana's story about her first day of class.
In contrast, Eleodoro who arrived after his class had his lunch and went to his tuition. After 5.30 pm, he reached home to change his outfit and left to play sports coached by his father's friend. Eleodoro only comes back home at 7 pm to bathe and have his dinner. After that, he will do all his homework and then sleep. This was his routine since he aged four years old. Now it had been one year and his school classes added to his routines.
After one month sitting together in the class, Oriana still can't talk to Eleodoro as friendly as how she talks to her other classmates. This made her heavy-hearted and tried to approach him again. After class ended, Oriana's mother came to pick up her daughter and told her that they will be having a small party in their house.
In the car, Oriana was in deep thought until her mom stroked her head and asked her, “Darling, are there anything that bothers you?”
Oriana replied “Mom, can I invite Eleodoro to this party too?” Mrs. Summer nodded and said, “Of course, Oriana”.
Next day, during the class Oriana didn't get a chance to invite Eleodoro to the party. After the class ended, Oriana with her mother went to Eleodoro's car and knocked on the window. Oriana startled to see a graceful woman sitting beside Eleodoro in the car.
Without hesitation, she looked at Eleodoro and said, “Eleo, I would like to invite you to party at my house this weekend. Hope you can join us.”
Eleodoro looked at that woman sitting beside him.
She told Oriana “Owh, hi girl. I'm Eleo's aunt. I would be glad to let Eleo join the party if he wanted to attend it.”
However, Eleodoro didn't say any words and they left. Oriana gloomily walked with her mother towards their car. Mrs. Summer tried to cheer her daughter by telling that Eleo would probably come to this party. Oriana smiled and nodded to her mother.
In the car, Eleo's aunt did some background checking about Oriana after asking Eleo what was that girl's name. At first, she forced Eleo to attend the party but Eleo was adamant that he was not going to that party. At his house, his aunt told her husband about the party and Eleo disagreement to attend it. Currently, Eleo had been taken charge by his aunt and uncle after Ms Feroza took a long break as she planned to get married soon and his parents continued their trip to other countries to expand their business. The main reason for Eleo's disagreement was he planned to video call his parents who are currently staying in Canada. All three of them are only free at the weekend and due to the different time zones between the countries, Eleo needs to be prepared as his parents might call him at any time. He might have felt disappointed if he was unable to attend his parents' call at that time. Thus, to avoid such circumstances from occurring he planned to stay at home for the whole day.
During dinner, Eleo's uncle talked to him about attending the party. Even though, both his uncle and aunt were aware of the call that would be made by his parents but they still forced him to attend that party. He was unable to convince them and lastly agreed to attend it. However, Eleo was enraged with Oriana who invited him to the party even though both of them are not close. Eleo unaware that Oriana had invited personally all her classmates and teachers to attend it as well, after all he ignored what happened around him.
