My Bothersome Life 95 Social Week 6

"You don't know how surprised I got," Ellen sobbed in front of the stage as she unintentionally attracted attention from Ben's guests.

"Yes, this was really dangerous Rika." Alice studied me carefully to see if I got hurt anywhere.

After both Alice and Ben confirmed that I had no injuries from the fall, they sighed in relief.

"I'll arrange for Luke and you to eat in the private VIP dining area on the first floor so you don't have to dine on the second floor," Ben added while he quickly changed the arrangements of Luke and I.

That's how Luke and I came to dine with Ben and his friends in the private VIP dining area instead of dining with Ellen and Allan on the second floor for lunch.

I looked around the dining room to discover that it was not inferior to the dining area in the ballroom in anyway. The rich blue velvet walls set a elegant atmosphere as other furniture within the room were also in shades of blue as if it was trying to make the walls stand out.

Ben and Alice were already seated with their friends who waited for Luke and I to sit down. "h.e.l.lo, I am Luke de Roselia and this is my partner Rika Roselia Shanes," Luke immediately introduced us to Ben's friends.

"I have heard many things about your partner," a friend of Ben attempted to start a conversation with great interest.

"What do you want brother?" Luke asked Ben's friend with strong displeasure.

'Brother?' I stopped eating from surprise.

Luke's brother smiled at me splendidly with his ocean blue eyes that resembled Luke while he possessed a different hair colour that was a very pale golden yellow.

"I am Lucius de Suilett otherwise known as Luke's brother," Lucius answered my thoughts.

"And you must be Rika." Lucius continued to smile with amus.e.m.e.nt.

I nodded as I elegantly picked up a fork under Luke's intense glare.

"Are you not from the Roselia family?" I asked Lucius curiously as he did not introduce himself as 'Lucius de Roselia'.

"I am but I am engaged to Belle," Lucius introduced his partner to me.

Belle faintly blushed as Lucius placed his hand around her waist.

"h.e.l.lo, I am Belle de Suilett." Belle shyly introduced herself while twirling her finger around the strands of her glossy pastel turquoise hair.

"And I'm Rika," I brightly smiled back to Belle while ignoring Lucius.

"How's the salmon?" Ben asked me to fulfill his duty as the host.

"Not bad," I plainly answered.

I prefered to eat pizza and chips at a party rather than focusing on which fork or spoon to use while eating a certain dish. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to even eat a slice of pizza in this life as the school only served gourmet food while Luke only took me to restaurants similar to the setting as the lunch I was currently eating.

"I want pizza," I quietly mumbled to myself with great disappointment in the choice of food today.

"Are you ok?" Ben asked me when I looked dejected.

"I'm fine," I answered with no enthusiasm.

"I never expected your partner to me closer to Ben than me," Lucius said with pity to Luke.

"We met several times in the second and sixth district," I casually answered while cutting another piece of my honey glazed salmon.

Ben suddenly froze as he threatened me with his glare, 'Don't you dare continue Rika.'

"Really?" The other pairs asked with great curiosity.

"I heard that middle schoolers weren't allowed to visit the lower districts," One of Ben's friends mumbled quietly.

"I thought that the freshmen in middle school were only allowed to go to the third district for their practical a.s.signments," Another friend of Ben whispered.

"Maybe they changed things up," Alice offered the guests a potential explanation.

Ben and Luke continued to eat their dish without a single word while the table continued to discuss about where middle schoolers were allowed to go during the practical a.s.signments from nostalgia.

Fortunately, none of Ben's friends noticed Ben's lack of presence in their conversation as Alice excitedly partook the lead in the topic.

"We have to go to our next event," Luke tried to apologize to Ben and Alice while excusing himself after we finished our lunch.

"See you later my brother," Lucius waved.

"Let's meet soon Rika!" Belle shouted as Luke dragged me out of the room.

Ben perked up as Alice also greeted us farewell.

'Was it my imagination, or did Ben not want us here at his event?' I briefly thought.

I left that thought aside as we soon entered the hover car to go to the next event.

"Riikka!" Luke yelled at me angrily once we were inside the hover car.

"It wasn't my fault this time," I talked back to Luke.

"Who knew there would be such a wide gap between one of the bars?" I continued.

"Most people don't lean against the rails during a party or go up to the dining area when it's not time to eat," Luke fiercely argued with his hands clenched onto the chair.

I rolled my eyes at Luke from great annoyance.

"How do you know when it's also your first time going to these parties in social week?" I countered while looking outside the window.

Luke hung his head down again, "It's common sense Rika."
