Today was the day Milan would start working on the project with Ariel. Milan is dropped off at a large building covered in glass that would be used to work on the project. It was a special place to test cars and the new car Milan would be developing would be created in the building. As Milan walks into the building, he is greeted by workers all dressed in coveralls and safety goggles. Machine parts arre carried around to being working on the car. Milan is excited at how busy the place is with people moving around to work on the car. Milan looks around but doesn't see Ariel anywhere. Milan hears the reving of an engine from outside and goes to see who had arrived. From the car, Ariel and Troy step down and check out the building. Milan's face lights up when he sees Ariel in a red coverall and her red hair tied in a bun. Milan hadn't realised he had been smiling and admiring her from afar until he locked eyes with her. His smile instantly dies down, and he keeps his usual blank

Milan lets out a laugh, breaking the awkward silence in the room. "That's enough. Come, I'll drive you home. "Milan drops Ariel off at her house, making sure she gets in safely before going home. Milan wakes up the next day and checks the date on his phone to see that it was December 24th, which meant it was christmas Eve. Milan checks the time to see that it was only 8am in the morning, and he quickly rushed to call Ariel. He gets up from his bed as he wants for her to pick. "Milan? Is something wrong?"Milan could hear Ariel's sleepy voice, and he sighed in relief. "Why do you think something is wrong?"Milan asks purely out of curiosity. "No offence or anything, but it's early in the morning,"Milan chuckles. "I'm sorry if I'm bothering you from sleeping, but I wanted to tell you not to bother coming to work today,""Why?"Ariel almost instantly replied, and she sounded more awake. Milan was starting to be convinced that she was walking workaholic. "Does the thought of no

Milan wakes up the next morning, squinting his eyes at the sun that penetrated through the windows, almost blinding him. Milan groans and gets out of the room to check on Ariel. He knocks on her door three times, but there is no answer. With a little push, he discovers that the door has already opened. "Ariel? Are you still asleep?"Milan walks into the room hesitantly but doesn't see Ariel. He decides to walk around the building in search of her, but she is nowhere to be found. Milan concluded that she must have left already. After all, today was Christmas. Milan stares at the almost empty basket, and the empty cans of beer are scattered on the floor and smiles a bit. Milan found himself to be smiling for the past few days. Even inheriting his father's wealth didn't make him so happy as he found himself the past days. Milan picked up some tools and decided to continue working on the car. As he wiped off swear from his forehead, he got a call from Ariel. Milan takes off his gre

"Christmas at the Orphanage I grew up was actually fun. The kids would gather around, and back then, a lot of people would donate so much candy, toys, and food. That was one of the times fhr orphanage was fully stocked. "Milan looks outside the window, watching the snow fall down while Ariel listens to him intently with her cup of chocolate in her hand. "I could remember the rest of the orphans fighting over the toys and gifts that we would receive that period. I always got the best toys because of how quick I was to pick out the good ones. It was back then at the Orphanage where I learnt that family doesn't mean that a person must be related by blood. It's simply people who show love and care for one another. "Milan takes a sip of his now cold chocolate. "The people I grew up with in that orphanage are my true family."Milan turns to look at Ariel and finds that she had been staring at him with a bit of sadness in her green eyes. Milan cleared his throat, joy wanting to make it

Ariel wasn't interested in any announcement her brother had annes to make. All she wanted to do was get some rest. "I'm a bit tired. Why don't you just go ahead and tell mom and dad. You can tell me later"Ariel starts walking towards the stairs, but her mother stands in front of her and crosses her arms. "You should stay and hear what your brother has to say, Ariel. Don't always be so stubborn. "Ariel let's out a sigh and tales a seat at the lounge alongside her mother and father whilst Troy and Ella stood before them with joined hands. It disgusted Ariel to watch how Ella had a sickening sweet smile on her face. Troy lets out a deep breath and looks at Ella with lovey dovey eyes. "I want to officially announce that Ella and I are now in a relationship"Ariel freezes for a second, not sure if her mind was playing tricks on her or if her brother was simply playing a prank. Mrs Hilton suddenly rushes to hug Troy and Ella with a warm smile on her face. "Congratulations, you two
