Ariah and Mac sat together in their living room, a notebook spread between them filled with ideas. “So, for Wen’s debut, we should definitely include something special,” Ariah suggested, tapping her pen thoughtfully.
Mac nodded, flipping through the pages. “I agree. What about a slideshow of her childhood? It would be a great way to highlight her journey.”
“That’s a fantastic idea!” Ariah replied, excitement sparking in her eyes. “We can pair it with a speech from each of us. It’ll be emotional.”
“Definitely. And how about the decorations? I was thinking something elegant, maybe with her favorite colors,” Mac added, her mind racing with possibilities.
“Let’s also make sure to include her friends in the planning,” Ariah said. “They’ll want to be part of this milestone.”
Mac smiled, feeling a rush of love. “This is going to be such a special night for her. I can’t wait to see her face.”
Ariah grinned back, their shared enthusiasm filling the room. “Together, we’ll make it unforgettable.”
--------Present time------
As the lights dimmed and the excitement in the room built, the host stepped up to the microphone, a broad smile on their face. “Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for a very special moment! Please join me in welcoming the debut girl of the evening, Mairwen Rhelvie Aliera Lim!”
The crowd erupted in applause, and the music swelled as Mairwen made her grand entrance. She stepped into the spotlight, radiant in her elegant gown, her confidence shining through.
“Tonight, we celebrate not just her turning eighteen, but the remarkable young woman she has become,” the host continued. “Let’s give her a warm welcome as she takes this exciting step into adulthood!”
As Mairwen walked forward, her heart raced with joy. She glanced at her family and friends, their smiles encouraging her as she prepared to embrace this milestone moment.
As the evening of Wen's debut party unfolded, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement. Guests mingled, laughter filling the air, while elegant decorations adorned the venue.
Ensley, Wen’s tita, arrived with a bright smile, holding a beautifully wrapped box. “Surprise!” she exclaimed, presenting it to Wen. “I brought you something special!”
Wen’s eyes lit up as she unwrapped the box to reveal a stunning makeup kit, complete with brushes and vibrant palettes. “Wow, Mimi En's! This is so pretyy!” she said, beaming.
Ensley chuckled, her eyes twinkling. “I thought it would be perfect for you. You’re going to look stunning tonight!”
Wen hugged her tightly. “Thank you so much! I can’t wait to try it all out.”
As they settled in front of a mirror, Ensley guided Wen through the different products, sharing tips and tricks. The two laughed and chatted, creating a cherished moment before the big celebration. Wen felt grateful to have her tita there, making her debut even more memorable.
As the debut event unfolded, Ariah and Mac stood side by side, their hearts swelling with pride. The venue was beautifully decorated, and the glow of lights reflected the joy in the room.
When it was time for Wen to make her entrance, Ariah felt a lump form in her throat. “I can’t believe she’s grown up so fast,” she whispered to Mac, her voice trembling.
Mac nodded, wiping away a tear. “I remember when we were planning her first birthday. Now look at her.”
When Wen stepped onto the stage, radiant in her gown, the room erupted in applause. Ariah and Mac exchanged a glance filled with emotion. They were overwhelmed by the realization of how far their daughter had come.
As Wen delivered her heartfelt speech, thanking her family and friends, Ariah’s heart swelled with love. “She’s so brave,” Mac said, squeezing Ariah’s hand tightly.
Ariah nodded, her eyes misty. “I’m so proud of her. She’s turned into such a beautiful person.”
When the moment came for them to join Wen on stage, they embraced her tightly, the three of them lost in a moment of love and gratitude. Ariah and Mac felt an overwhelming sense of joy, knowing they had built a beautiful life together, and tonight was a celebration of everything they cherished.
As the night continued, Mac’s parents arrived, drawing smiles and waves from the crowd. They were well-known in the community as the owners of the local school, and their presence added a touch of warmth to the event.
Mac spotted them across the room and rushed over, Ariah following closely behind. “Mom, Dad! I’m so glad you made it!” she exclaimed, pulling them into a hug.
“We wouldn’t miss this for the world,” her father said, beaming with pride. “Wen looks absolutely stunning!”
Ariah joined in the conversation, her heart swelling as they shared stories about Wen’s accomplishments. “She’s grown into such a remarkable young woman,” Ariah added, her eyes sparkling.
Mac’s mother nodded, her eyes misty. “You both have done an amazing job raising her. She’s a reflection of your love.”

Ariah and Mac exchanged glances, feeling grateful for the support of their families on such a special occasion. The celebration felt even more meaningful with everyone they loved gathered together, honoring Wen’s journey into adulthood.
Iyah walked into the bustling room, her eyes wide with excitement as she spotted her grandparents. “Hi, Grandma! Hi, Grandpa!” she called, waving enthusiastically.
Mac’s parents turned, their faces lighting up with joy. “Iyah! There you are!” her grandmother exclaimed, kneeling down to embrace her. “You’ve grown so much since we last saw you!”
Iyah giggled, squeezing her grandmother tightly. “I missed you!”
Her grandfather joined in, ruffling Iyah’s hair affectionately. “We’ve got some surprises for you, you know. How about a little adventure tomorrow?”
Iyah’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “What kind of adventure?”
“Just wait and see!” her grandfather replied with a wink. “But first, let’s celebrate your sister’s big night.”
As the party continued, Iyah felt the warmth of her family around her. She loved being part of such a special occasion and couldn’t wait to make memories with her grandparents, all while cheering on Wen as she embraced her new chapter.
Wen spotted her grandparents across the room and made her way over, a smile spreading across her face. “Grandma, Grandpa!” she called out, her heart swelling with affection.
Her grandmother opened her arms wide. “There’s my beautiful girl!” she exclaimed, pulling Wen into a warm embrace. “You look absolutely stunning tonight.”
“Thank you! I’m so happy you’re here,” Wen said, her eyes shining.
Her grandfather stepped forward, pride evident in his eyes. “You’ve made us so proud, Wen. Watching you grow up has been a joy.”
Wen felt tears of happiness prick at her eyes. “I wouldn’t be who I am without you both.”
Her grandmother held her hands, looking deep into her eyes. “Remember, we believe in you, no matter where life takes you. This is just the beginning.”
Wen nodded, feeling the weight of their support. “I promise to make you proud.”
As the music played softly in the background, they shared stories and laughter, creating a cherished moment together. Wen felt grateful to have her grandparents by her side, celebrating this milestone in her life.
