Get Back To You 207 Anna Arrives With Her Date!

..

When Diego entered the kitchen and got separated away from the other two's vicinity, he felt his knees gave out. Supporting himself with the cabinet, Diego finally decompressed. He drank water to cool down his head, taking the time to calm his rising throbs.

As everyone took a minute to cool down the momentum, a loud noise reached their ears very distantly. Probably, Diego was the only one who could hear the scattered sound while Lillian and Edwin Grey caught it clear. The sound neared closer and closer towards the Grey's residence.

Edwin and Lillian blinked at each other wordlessly.

Edwin then went to take a peek outside. What he saw made him open in the mouth in awe.

A shining black Rolls Royce Phantom limousine appeared in front.

The six seated splendor beast soon halted, and out came a boy who then let the girl out. Both dressed flashy and appeared chic. Edwin flabbergasted, still squints his eyes to see.

' Anna?' – His voice screeched high from the shock.

"Anna?"

"She arrived already."

"She just texted me that they started and they are here already. What in the world is going on?" Lillian baffled. She went and joined her father. As the Grey's watched the grand appearance, Diego slowly joined to their watch as well.

Feeling another presence close, Lillian turned to check.

"Diego?"

"You are here?" Lillian noticed.

"Uh, ye" Diego stuttered.

Back to watching the scene unfold outside the entrance via the window, the three had their mouths open in shock.

"Wow, Anna looks exceptionally good!" Lillian gulped from her striking visual.

Anna wore a grey colored prom dress with sparkling stone works stretching over the top half while the bottom had frills along with the high slit, just like Lillian's. Her hair styled with beautiful bangs swaying the side cheeks. Topping the look was the fur coat she wore to keep her warm from the cold night.

"Is that Anthony Maze?" Lillian and Diego shouted at the same time.

"Who's that?"

"Ah, Anna's date!" Edwin remembered the girl sharing about it the other day.

"YES."

Lillian and Diego responded at once.

Anna and Anthony both walked towards the door in unison with hand-in-hand together. As they walked, the three inside the house followed them with their eyeb.a.l.l.s gawking at them.

Only when the doorbell rang more than thrice, Edwin snapped out of it. He moved fast to let the guests in, without wanting to make them wait outside for too long.

"Welcome to the Grey's residence, Ms. Anna and Mr. Anthony-" Edwin greeted and halfway paused to look at his daughter.

"It is Maze, dad," Lillian whispered from there.

"Mr. Anthony Maze, Please do come inside," Edwin welcomed the two.

"Edwin, what happened to you?" Anna asked, noticing how everyone seemed amazed at her.

…

"So, Anthony's modeling friend let him use the car for tonight?" Lillian asked breathlessly.

Anna nodded. She explained the story of how Anthony is a part-time model at a prestigious agency to Edwin Grey and that one of his model friends let him use the car for his prom.

"We are partying in that, baby," Anna roared.

"Alright, it is getting late already. Let's leave, guys."

Anna commanded.

..

"Lilly?" Edwin called.

When Lillian turned, Edwin chatted with her privately.

"Enjoy the event, and have a lot of fun. And-" Edwin paused.

"Do you remember what I said?" he asked.

"About following my heart?" she replied.

Those words sparked the images of Giselle in her mind. Seeing Lillian lower her vision sadly, Edwin reacted.

"Yes, no matter what, follow your heart. It will always guide you to the right place."

Edwin's advice rea.s.sured Lillian. He then happily sent off his daughter to have a great time and advised all to behave and not get wasted.

The youngsters all agreed in unison.

'Look at them, agreeing too fast.' –Edwin sighed, knowing that they would obviously go overboard for tonight.

Following their little talk, the kids left Grey's residence in their luxury transportation.

***

Anna and Lillian Grey sat together while Anthony and Diego chatted next to them.

"Someone is looking s.e.xy tonight," Anna poked fun at Lillian.

Lillian's return glare didn't do anything to Anna.

"Aren't you talking about yourself?" Lillian remarked.

"I know that I'm looking pretty good today, but you-"

"It is nice to see you outside of your lazy sweatpants and tank tops."

Anna's subtle compliment earned an acknowledgment from her friend.

"Look at you, getting Anthony to do all kinds of services for you," Lillian commented.

"It wasn't my idea; it was his," Anna returned instantly.

I am guessing you two will end up becoming a couple," Lillian noted.

"Do you think so?"

"So far, it is going great with him," Anna replied as she shot a glance at Anthony, who was busily chattering with Diego.

"I don't know, Lilly. Remember? Follow your heart. If it says Anthony for me, then I'm sure we can hit it off," Anna expressed.

"If not, then it will be okay, for I can still hope for my guy to show up at the right time."

"Ah, I wonder who will it be?" Anna breathed.

Once again, the words of following one's heart reminded Lillian of Giselle. No matter what, she cannot help but think of the girl.

"Talking about guys, How the h.e.l.l is Diego looking like a hunk in a suit. I didn't know he had the attraction in him. b.a.s.t.a.r.d, secretly hiding all his charms."

Anna exclaimed while shooting another glare at her friend, Diego.

"Tell me about it, I got shocked seeing him like that," Lillian agreed.

"Hmm…" the girls sighed together.

..

"Well, thanks for such a great ride, Anna and Anthony," Lillian thanked.

Anthony nodded with a charming smile.

"It is going to be an awesome night for us," Anna quoted.

Everyone cheered all together.

"Let's have no regrets and enjoy the night."

Everyone swore together.

"Hey, isn't Giselle coming with us?" Anthony asked out of nowhere.

The name startled everyone individually. Diego's brows twitched while Anna face-palmed herself mentally for not warning her date to throw such names randomly. Meanwhile, Lillian Grey, when heard the name felt a twinge in her heart, alarming her deep within.

As if it is like a forbidden word, everyone froze from hearing the name and refused to speak.

Anna signaled Anthony to cut it out. She then gently whispered to him about Giselle, not going to the prom. Though Anna spoke softly, the words clearly landed at Lillian Grey.

Gazing outside the window, Lillian Grey refrained from conversing further. Diego noticed her go mute while Anna consoled Anthony, who was feeling sorry for depressing the mood.

***

The limo reached its destination, and just as they suspected, these two couples were the last to arrive because there wasn't a soul outside.

Anthony let the driver park nearby while the two boys escorted their dates out of the car.

They saw the red carpet along with a big welcome signboard in front of the school's indoor basketball stadium. Because of the prom, the entire stadium received a whole new transformation according to this year's theme, which is 'colors.'

Four of them took one last check at themselves, fixing their dress before entering the arena. It is then Anna dragged Lillian away from the boys and advised her to behave normally.

"Look, I know things are messed up lately for you. However, you promised Diego that you would accompany him. As a friend, you should do it. Who knows, maybe he wanted to have a great time with you and cherish it forever, so don't you dare mess this up, at least for him, got it?" Anna warned sternly.

It took Lillian a while to agree, but she did, despite still feeling the sting in her heart for Giselle.

Joining with their dates, Anna went with Anthony, and they both appeared very happy even though they aren't in a relationship. However, when Lillian met Diego, she could see how gleaming Diego peered at her. Lillian felt how accurate Anna's words were in regards to Diego wanting to have fun with Lillian for their prom event. She also realized that both hadn't talked ever since getting astounded by each other's appearance.
