THE CELEBRATION.

While driving back to the villa after addressing the dangerous rumors, a ringing tone is heard from Diana's phone and on the line is her father speaking.

Santana: Hello child!

Diana: Yes , father.

Santana: I am just calling to congratulate you upon clearing your name and mine at large.

Diana: Did you see the news properly dad, I wasn't the one responsible for clearing my name but your son in law did.

Santana: Regardless ,I want us to hold a celebration in honor of restoring your name's pride so invite some friends over and let them come home.

Diana: I do not have friends dad besides, I do not see the need to do a whole party for just a trivial thing.

Santana: IS IT YOUR MONEY OR MINE, WHY DO YOU CARE HOW I USE IT .IF I FEEL THE NEED TO SPEND IT ON MY ONLY DAUGHTER THEN LET IT BE !

Diana: Why do you always have the need to push around people's lives to suit your own selfish desires?

Santana: We have already thrown the party and what is missing is the celebrant so it is going to be meaningless without you but if you feel like you do not want to attend I have my other means to get you here so choose which is better.

Diana: I am coming so no need to hire a whole army and battalion to bring me over .Okay dad.

Santana: Oh yes this almost skipped my mind.

Diana: What exactly?

Santana: Are you seated next to your husband?

Diana: Yes , sure.

Santana: Kindly pass him the phone I need to discuss some important information with him.

Diana hands over the phone to Alfred White .

Santana: Son in law! How are you doing?

Alfred: I am great thanks for asking.

Santana: I want to first of all thank you for restoring pride to my name .

Alfred: I did not do it willingly.

Santana: That is okay , at least you are as reliable as your father.

Alfred: Does she know?( Alfred is inquiring about whether Diana knows that he is the reason behind exposing and embarrassing her publicly)

Santana: No , she doesn't, if she knew you wouldn't be breathing.

Alfred: I do appreciate your confidentiality.

Santana: That is nothing really. But the main reason for this call is to invite you to this party am throwing for her and it is a MUST for you to attend . Come with some friends and parents so we do not look like we are threatening you to be with our daughter. THANKS FOR HONORING the invite .

After the conversation, Santana switches off the phone without giving Alfred any reason to even reject and this leaves Alfred baffled and thinking whether this is Santana's way of doing things ,I mean does he think he is God or something to just do as he pleases with the human kind? well if it is, he is going to be a slave for some good time.

As he is still in thought, he doesn't notice that he is about to knock a passers by that is crossing and what saves the incident from happening is Diana who changes the direction of the steering wheel to the left to avoid hitting the woman.

Diana: Do you want to get me killed or taken to jail for attempted murder.

Alfred: Shocked with what he was about to do, apologizes for giving Diana a fright.

Diana: Are you in wonderland creating castles at this time of day?

Alfred: Yes please.

Diana: Then stop with the story your creating and get back to reality, otherwise I do not want to die yet before I meet the love of my life.

Alfred: If he exists!

Alfred remembers that he has to invite his parents and friends over to attend this party and the first two friends he thinks about are his personal assistant Jackson as well as Daniel so as to keep him company while he is there and when both are called, they confirm their presence which makes him get relieved .

While all this is happening, Diana is quietly listening to all the conversations he is having with the people close to him and also learns that he has a friend Daniel whom she looks forward to meeting but she does not make an effort to try inviting Alexa which is baffling him so he asks her if she is not inviting Alexa and in no minute Alexa is called ,her presence is confirmed and so Alfred suggests they go shopping first for the attires to dress for the occasion which Diana does not refute.

At the party, a woman dressed in a black dress with a v- neck line all flowy as it descends to cover the lower parts of her body with a slight opening to reveal her right thigh brought about by the effect of the wind with long black hair and curls falling on both sides of her shoulders enters with a gentleman hand in hand dressed in a black tuxedo and a faux cut all serious with the bold color and the fresh cut highlighting his beautiful features making all people that were quite busy in the hall trying to be comfortable keep quiet because of there un matches levels of elegance as well as confidence and un beatable beauty. The couple in question being described is that of Diana Lands and Alfred White.

On arrival, the couple heads towards the parents whom they bow , greet and peck as a sign of respect and then get some drinks from the waiters that are all over the place and quench their thirst. Diana gets herself a martini although Alfred is totally against it and he gets himself just a cocktail juice as he is afraid of embarrassing himself since he is not a good tolerant of alcohol.

The hosts do welcome all the guests available and with that done, Santana introduces his one and only daughter to the billionaire guests so as to make her known as well as his son in law as a source of pride upon his family and what he gets are very good reviews about the couple for their unmatched level of compatibility.

In one of the corners at the party is a humble sweet girl watching all that is happening but she can only be happy for her friend because much as it is not real ,at least compliments are what is filling the room and what her only request is that she also meets some one just like that who is none other than Alexandria.

As she is in thought, a gentleman approaches her and says;

Gentleman: Hello, care for a drink!

Alexa: Yes , thank you.

Gentleman : Which one suits your taste?

Alexa: Nothing in particular.

Gentleman: Then let us do a fruit cocktail.

Alexa: Thanks.

Gentleman: Anytime.

Alexa: Yes, who am I speaking to ?

As the gentleman is about to say his name, a phone call is heard so he excuses himself so as to attend to his call. At the party there is lots of barbecue, deserts of all sorts, and champagne of all types ranging from expensive to exquisite.

Alexa goes towards her best friend and the excitement seen on Diana's face is quite impressive because it is only Alexa that brings out the child like character in Diana .

Once Alfred sees his wife laughing out loud while facing the wall and her back to the audience, he gets inquisitive and walks over to see whom she is speaking to and once he realizes it is Alexa, he greets her and also appreciates her presence, as he is turning to leave , a man taps his shoulder and says, " you are quite a sneaky person, where in the world have you been?"
