𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊?

Raven and Grace confidently step into the elegant bar, its ambiance replete with sophistication. Raven's keen eyes sweep across the room, each glance full of intent as she searches for someone specific.

Grace, her curiosity piqued, leans closer to Raven, her voice a soft whisper amid the hum of conversations. "Who are you looking for, Raven?"

Raven's lips curl into a teasing smile, a glimmer of mystery in her eyes. "Just wait. I'm not sure myself."

Grace quirks an eyebrow, playfully puzzled by Raven's enigmatic response. "If you don't know who you're looking for, what's the point of looking?"

Raven's amusement dances in her gaze as she acknowledges Grace's point. "You know what, for the first time, you make sense."

Grace grins in response, her playful demeanor taking center stage. "So, who are you looking for, then?"

Raven's focused gaze transforms as she spots a figure gradually making their way towards them. Recognition dawns, and Raven's voice carries a note of realization. "Mark."

Grace, now curious and slightly puzzled, leans in closer, her voice laced with intrigue. "Mark? The sports captain?"

Raven's brows furrow slightly as she attempts to piece together the unexpected encounter. "Why would he...?"

Before she can complete her thought, Mark strides up to them, his presence only deepening the intrigue. A knowing grin tugs at Grace's lips, her amusement apparent.

"Ah, so it is him. Looks like I'm going to be the third wheel," Grace playfully remarks, fully grasping the unfolding situation.

Raven, still processing the situation, attempts to sort through her thoughts and emotions. "Wait a minute... I'm processing."

Mark's genuine smile lights up the scene as he addresses Raven. "Hey, Raven."

A reciprocal smile graces Raven's lips as she responds, "Hey, Mark..."

A pause stretches between Raven and Mark, accompanied by Grace's curious observation as she toggles her attention between the two. The air holds a sense of intrigue as they navigate the unexpected situation.

Breaking the silence, Mark speaks casually, his words laced with a touch of amusement, "So, Raven, fancy seeing you here."

Raven's response carries a confident tone, hinting at her purpose, "I came here to meet a client on behalf of my brother."

Mark's grin widens, his expression playful, "Even I am supposed to meet someone here, but they're not here yet."

Raven responds with curiosity, her interest piqued by Mark's revelation, "Oh, cool."

Intrigued by her response, Mark's question follows naturally, "Who is your brother?"

Raven's voice carries a hint of pride as she proudly states, "Vincent."

Recognition dawns on Mark's features, his astonishment evident, "That's the person I was supposed to meet!"

The conversation continues to unfold between Raven and Mark, a blend of curiosity and shared realization. Grace remains a quiet observer, captivated by the unexpected turn of events.

Seeking clarity, Raven inquires further, "Oh, in that case, you're here for...?"

Mark's confidence shines through as he responds, "A personalized suit design."

Raven's voice takes on a slight panicked edge as she exclaims, "You, Grace and I have a meeting together in that case. Alright, Mark, just give us some time. We'll come back."

Grace's confusion is palpable, and she leans in to inquire, her voice tinged with puzzlement, "What's going on?"

In response, Raven acts swiftly, taking Grace's hand and guiding her to a more private space for their conversation. Raven's voice lowers to a whisper as she explains the situation, "Look, you're the designer for the client, and I didn't expect Mark to be the client."

Grace's expression reflects her complete bafflement as she responds, "What?"

Grace's voice drops to a whisper as she asks, clearly taken aback, "I'm a personal designer? When did this happen?"

Raven's expression remains reassuring as she offers Grace a comforting smile and motions for her to remain composed. In a hasty manner, Raven explains, "You know my brother opened a fashion brand named 'Ves-dar,' right?"

Grace's head bobs in affirmation as she responds, "Yeah, I've heard about it."

Raven's tone takes on a teasing quality as she playfully prompts, "Guess who the brand ambassador is?"

Grace's thoughtful tone conveys her uncertainty as she responds, "No clue."

Raven takes a moment to detail her suspicions to Grace, and her words elicit a blend of disbelief and astonishment from her friend.

"Okay, see... I think Mark is the brand ambassador," Raven whispered.

"What the hell?" Grace's whispered response mirrored her astonishment.

Feeling the urgency of the situation, Raven was determined to seek confirmation from her brother to validate her theory.

"I think. Let me confirm with Vincy," Raven whispered.

Grace's impatience grew more apparent as she encouraged Raven to act quickly.

"Make it quick," Grace whispered urgently.

"Look who's talking," Raven retorted in a hushed tone.

Raven dialed Vincent's number and engaged in a brief conversation with him. After ending the call, she turned to Grace to share the update.

"It is our Mark," Raven whispered, confirming her suspicion.

Grace processed the news, and the realization slowly dawned on her.

"Okay, so I have to design a suit for him?" Grace whispered, her voice filled with a mix of surprise and determination.

"Yup. And call me once you're done," Raven replied in a low voice.

However, Grace was insistent, not willing to handle the situation alone. "You're coming with me," Grace whispered with determination.

Raven protested playfully. "Huuuuuuuuu, nooo," she complained in a mock whine.
