The Masquerade

Chapter 49

EPILOGUE

AFTER FIVE YEARS

Adriana

"Are you coming out already,Ana,we are running late"
Daniele calls out exasperrated.

"These ladies" he sits back on couch.

As Adraian opens the door and comes out,he couldnt help but gawk at the beauty.

He hasnt gotten enough of Adriana,though it has been 5 years of togetherness.

They have loved madly and fought like couples do yet staying strong as ever.

Its a charity event at Clarks and Garrix and Daniele is super excited to go,Ana is all ready in her best attire,needless to say,she always looks her best as Daniele tells her.

One look and Daniele is all set again,the time she has taken to get ready was all worth it.

He gets on his feet,moves closer to her,stealing a kiss from her lips off guard when she was busy,setting her dress strap.

"Hurry baby"he dashes off before she could even respond.

Well Adriana has been the lucky one,she hasnt yet married Daniele,and they had thier reasons.

She was carrying Daniele's child fpr about a month now and Daniele is unaware yet.

Each day when she plans to tell him,something or the other comes up but she is happy that today is the day,when she announce it to him.

So she has dressed best to impress and caresees her newly born tummy and dashes off as Daniele honks again.

At the party Clark is so happiky welcoming the couple,and Richard is busy showing up to the charity gala.

This event is all about the mega charity event where Clarks and Garrix raise fund for noble cause and so for the motive Daniele is here as Ana insists.

After the formal proceedings of the day,the couple is invited for the dance and thats obviously Daniele and Adriana.
Soon after that appear around are the guests that come to the party.
I drag Daniele along to receive,
"Nancy,Ivan along with their son is here,and oh my mine,Is it you Adiva?"
Adiva to my surprise is here,I dinot even expect such a surprise.

"How could I miss another big event of your life Ana,I already missed the proposal night" adiva mentiones and everyone laughs at the sweet rekindling memory.

Just at the moment Daniel again steals the show,reaching stage,taking microphone and lending all ears.

"Oh my gosh!what is he upto now?" Nancy adds.

Ladies and gentleman,Its my pleasure to have you all here for this noble cause,I would use this opportunity tonight to break not one but two big news to all of you,

"One of which is that,I along with my love Adriana,have now opened for us,another conceptual reading room with the publishing house in Miami.

And the people applaud,only the parents of him were shocked as if they were uninformed and in utter disbelief.

And the launching date of the place is my beloved's birthday,next week,so this is my goft to her in advance.

Each one of you is inviting to the launching party at Miami,formal invites shall be sent.

And now the next one,
I have so long been waiting for this day to come,when I at stand at my feet and make each of my beloved's dream true,and now is the day,Give me a fair chane to ask you yet again and this time with a ring,she has made me the luckiest man already by just being in my life.

He bends again and surprises the awe struck audience with the ring.
Ana had to say yes.

Taking the plunge she now invites all of her family,his family,friends who were present (Nancy,Ivan,Adiva,Jamie,Olie)
,Mrs.Stephene,Francesca and the old house keeper from Miami.

Midst of all,she thanks them all for being a part of her glorious world and breaks the news of her carrying a child to which everyone looks at daniele's face for his reaction and he is passivee for a moment and all eyes on him,the next moment he sweeps ana off her feet and kisses her ferverntly,announcing the wedding to take place soon.

The best moment of your life,apparently it is.

She has been the luckiest lady, I had ever known.

She didn't want to see him,yet she waited for him to come. This time again, reality washed over her aspirations and pain wins over pride.
