Liana shook her hand lightly. "That's it, that's it, that's good. Now you change your clothes and come with me."

Resignedly, Laura nodded and went back into the bathroom. What exactly did Justin bring her here for?! That guy is really... Aghh!

... 

"You look so beautiful! I'm sure Justin will be stunned to see you!" Livia praised after Laura had finished her make-up and changed into a dress. Probably three hours were spent on her make-up. It was now late afternoon too, err, late evening.

Laura smiled slightly and said thank you. Laura looked at her reflection. It was like she didn't recognize herself. The woman in the mirror was not her, but someone else. Laura was taken by Livia to another room. When Livia opened the door, Laura closed her eyes and smelled the man's perfume. It must be very expensive, she thought. When she opened her eyes, she was surprised to see Justin smiling at her. Even the man was dressed neatly in his suit.

Justin approached Laura and rubbed her cheek gently.

kpacueo." Justin whispered.

Laura frowned not understanding what language Justin was speaking. He seemed to be speaking the language of his planet which she didn't understand. "What?"

It means, you look really pretty! Justin whispered again.

Laura looked down in shame. She glanced at Justin who was squatting in front of her. Then someone came over and handed him a beautiful pair of shoes. Justin lifted her skirt and put one foot in the heels.

Livia held herself up so she wouldn't fall. After that, Justin pulled up the other leg and put on the shoes again so that now his feet were adorned with beautiful heels.

"Thank you." Laura said.

Justin nodded slowly. He glanced at Livia who was waiting. "Ah, thank you Liv, she's really beautiful. You're always the best. And... I'll transfer the entire cost later. You just need to email me the bill."

Livia chuckled. "No need. I've already printed out the total bill. You can just look at it and transfer it. It would be lazy of me to email the total to you again."

Justin laughed casually. He was always trying to play tricks on Livia in strange ways. "Okay, okay. Where's the bill?"

"You want her to see it?" Livia glanced at Laura, who had been staring at them in silence.

Justin looked thoughtful. "Hm, no. Just send it to my email, no problem. I'll go then." Justin tugged gently on Laura's arm and took her hand without regard for Livia who shook her head in wonder. Then he would have to send the total to the man's email, right?

"Justin, where are we actually going? I'm wearing this dress, you're wearing a suit. Where are we actually going?" Laura asked as she followed Justin's lead.

Justin smiled. "We'll see."

Laura sighed and followed the man who didn't know where he was taking her. Maybe he wanted to take her to his friend's wedding, or something. Laura could only follow Justin who was her unclear lover.

....

"Please princess." Justin spoke as he opened the door for Laura and extended his hand.

Laura smiled shyly as she accepted Justin's hand and got out of the car. She used one hand to lift her long dress. She had no idea where Justin wanted to take her. All she knew was that they were entering a hotel. Justin led her to the elevator and took it up.

The elevator stopped at the 56th floor. When the elevator doors opened, Justin took her out and all she could see was darkness. He tightened his arms around Justin and looked around him with apprehension.

"Justin, why are we here? It's so dark Justin..." he said quietly.

"Just look." Justin replied casually.

Suddenly Justin counted down from five which made Laura furrow her brow.

"Two."

"Justin what do you want?" Caitlyn asked in a fast and frightened tone.

"One!"

HANDS!

Suddenly, the sound of the party pooper being turned and releasing paper decorations rolled out there along with the lights coming on. Laura blinked her eyes in surprise at the sound. She also covered her gaping mouth in shock. Laura looked around and the colorful papers that fell from above hit her and Justin. She glanced at Justin who was smiling widely.

"SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

Laura couldn't say anything. She was so surprised and touched. A lot of people were staring at her. Most of them she didn't even recognize. They were dressed nicely. The women wore evening gowns and the men wore suits.

Justin grabbed Laura's hair and kissed Caitlyn gently on the forehead. He knew for sure that she was shocked to death.

"Ju... Justin, what's this all about?"

Suddenly many people approached Laura and wished her a happy birthday. She just accepted it with a stiff smile. Her eyes glanced at Justin for an explanation.

"Laura!"

She turned around and saw Sarah, Lidya, Ethan, and William coming towards them. "Happy Birthday! Oh my! I didn't realize it was your birthday!" Ethan said and the others continued to wish Laura a happy birthday.

Justin invited Laura on stage. While on stage, Laura felt like disappearing right away when she saw that there were so many people looking at her right now. Hundreds of people maybe. Can that guy pull off a surprise like this?!

"Thank you, to all of you for coming to the show," Justin began. He thanked all the guests and continued even saying the birthday words together to the sound of the party pooper again.

This time, Laura couldn't hold back her tears. She shed her tears because she was touched. Laura approached Justin who was talking. She stood behind him and patted his shoulder lightly. Justin stopped what he was saying and turned around. Then suddenly Laura hugged Justin tightly, in front of everyone. Seeing that, everyone clapped loudly. Justin returned Laura's hug with a smile.

"Thank you so much, I... I never thought this would happen." Laura sobbed but it was a happy sob.

"Because, you never know what I want to do for you or to you." Justin replied with a sad tone in it. However, he was good at hiding it from Laura.

"I л106л1o meбa Juн. "1 Justin whispered.
