Painfully yours

Mistake.

As Ariana walks back into her room, she notices Arya sitting on the bed, looking sad and fiddling with her blanket. Concerned, Ariana approaches Arya and asks her what's the matter. Arya then confesses that Xavier has demanded she meet him for dinner and won't accept any cancellations.

Understanding the situation, Ariana encourages Arya to give Xavier a chance and see how things will go. She tells Arya that sometimes it's worth giving someone another opportunity, as they might surprise you. However, Arya expresses her reluctance, saying that she doesn't want to keep going through this again and again.

Ariana, being supportive, gently pushes Arya to go for dinner, explaining that it wouldn't be polite to bail on someone last minute. She emphasizes the importance of giving people a fair chance and seeing if things can improve.

Ariana tells Arya that she has some things to do and offers to drop her back home. This way, Arya can have some time to herself and reflect on her feelings.

As Ariana drives Arya back to her house, she occasionally asks for directions to ensure they're on the right path. During the drive, Arya's mind is filled with contemplation about whether she should listen to Ariana's advice. She still doesn't want to see Xavier and is hesitant about defying both Xavier's demand and Ariana's encouragement.

Arya had hoped that Ariana would intervene and ask Xavier to cancel the dinner, but that didn't happen. This adds to her worries and internal conflict. She now finds herself torn between going against Xavier's expectations and potentially disappointing Ariana, whom she values and respects.

With each passing moment, Arya's uncertainty grows, and she wonders if she should take a leap of faith and give Xavier another chance, or stand her ground and prioritize her own feelings. The decision weighs heavily on her mind as Ariana drops her off at her house, leaving Arya to contemplate her next move.

"Bye love. I'll see you soon."Ariana says before rolling up her window and Arya waved back sadly and turns around and walks into her house.

As Arya walks back into her house, still deep in thought about her choices, she can't help but feel a sense of fear and hesitancy about going to dinner with Xavier. The weight of uncertainty lingers in her mind as she steps inside. In the foyer, she notices suitcases strewn on the floor and handbags, coats, and hats scattered on the bench. Instantly, she realizes that her parents are flying out again.

Feeling a mix of emotions, Arya makes her way to the dining room where she finds her parents having lunch. Approaching her dad, she listens as he talks greatly about Princess Ariana and Xavier . He had heard a lot from Xavier's dad, about both their achievements . However, this time, Arya doesn't feel like sharing anything with him. Confusion clouds her thoughts as she contemplates what she should confess. She doesn't want to admit to her father that she didn't enjoy her time with Xavier, his business partner's son, and his friends. This internal struggle weighs heavily on her.

Feeling exhausted from everything that has transpired, Arya longs for the comfort of her bed. The weariness seeps into her bones, and all she wants is to retreat and find solace in sleep.

Arya's P.O.V

As I find my dad seated at the dining table, enjoying his lunch with my mom, I join them, taking a seat for our family meal. He is interested in how my night went with Ariana and Xavier ,But my dad's focus remains on Xavier, whom he describes as an absolute delight and a valuable addition to his busy schedule. Xavier has taken up the responsibility of managing my dad's new project, and he does so with complete professionalism and dedication. My dad speaks highly of Xavier, emphasizing how he allows my dad to leisurely take business trips around the world without any worries. Xavier's skills in negotiation, tax laws, import laws, and all aspects of the business are advanced and savvy. In fact, my dad considers Xavier to be the best version of his dad, a legend and a successful business tycoon himself.
