"Hi sweetie!" Alice's mom went to her and gave her a warm hug.
"Hey mom! I missed you" she hugged her mother too and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"Here's a few goodies and oh, a package was sent to our house this afternoon and it's under your name. Here." Her mom handed her a large sized box. She smiled secretly when she received it.
"It's a bit heavy sweety, what could it be?" Her mom asked.
"It's nothing mom, it's just a random stuff that I ordered last week."
"I see." Her mother smiled and looked around.
"You friends to be in a bad mood today Ice, are you guys okay?" Her mother asked.
"Yeah, it's just that the school secretary visited us a while ago and she's a bit of a pain in the ass." She explained.
"Why? Did she do something to you?"
"Nah mom, never mind it's not something major or anything, she just scolded us that's all."
"You sure?"
"Yes mom. Let's go to the living room." She and her mother went to the living room where her friends are.
"Hi Aunty Liz!" Rika stood up greeted Alice's mom. She went and hug her as usual.
"Hello Rika! You look beautiful!" Alice's mom hugged her too.
"Always Aunty! Always! Hehehe"
"This is for you; your mom is outside still talking to the guards. Asking them if this dorm is really safe for all of you."
"That's my mom alright, she's always like that Aunty."
"Yes, we only want what's best for our babies. Hi Angela! You look gloomy dear, are you okay?"
"Y-yes Aunty Liz, I'm okay." Angela still angered from the incident a few minutes ago tried to force a smile.
"Smile dear, you always look like an angel when you smile."
When she heard that her confidence level rose up again and she finally let out a genuine smile.
"Ah...Auntie Liz you're the best." Angela stood up and hugged her too.
They were in the middle of chatting when Rika's mom and Angela's mom came inside.
"Rika, come here darling, there's a package for you." Rika's mom said.
"What a coincidence Angela has a package too." Angela's mom added.
"Alice received one too amiga. I guess the three of them ordered from the same store."
"Ahh yeah, the three of us ordered scented candles for our rooms." Rika a little bit nervously carefully said.
"Oh, so that explains why it's a bit heavy."
"Yes, Aunty indeed"
"We bought some food for all of you and let's not forget I also bought some skin care products for you Emerald!" Elizabeth said while smiling at Emerald.
"Really? Wow thank you so much Aunty Liz!" Emerald happily stood up and went to where she is and hugged her.
"It's a new product our company is making, you're going to be the first one to try. It will be out in stores in two weeks! You're a model so you should always look fresh and beautiful all the time."
"You really are the best Aunty Liz!"
"Charlee, come here, your father said a package also arrived and he asked me to hand it over to you. He knows we're visiting you guys today." Said Jean, Rika's mother.
