PARTY DAY

Justin is inside his room, looking at the mirror while preparing himself in order to go to the party as he locks his shirt buttons with his hand and a wide smile on his face. While Justin is inside his room preparing himself, shortly Smith enters inside Justin's room and goes straight to the bed and sits down.

As the time Justin is at the mirror preparing himself, He then notices  Smith smiling at him besides the mirror as he stares towards him. 

"What's wrong?. why are you staring at me like that?.", Justin asks.

Smith replies, "That tuxedo fits you really great."

"Oh!, Thanks bro.", Justin grins and replies.

"With that good looking tuxedo. I'm sure by the end of the party you gonna end up with ten girlfriends tonight.",

Justin snorts and smiles while replying, "I don't think so."

Smith raises an eyebrow and replies, "Why?. Don't you take a look at yourself on how good looking you are?."

Justin takes a glance at himself on the mirror while fixing his tie and replies,

"I'm Kinda good looking. But the girls who  I'm gonna meet up at the party they are all from rich families.  I don't think they will even look at me twice."

"There is a saying that says "love is blind" so don't worry they will eventually notices you while  you are there."

Justin shakes  his head in disagreement, "Not really. Nowadays if you don't have money you will not have any value in this world."

In few moments while Smith and Justin are talking inside their room, Emily then knocks the door while calling Justin. When Justin hears his mother's call from outside, he then goes and opens the door for her.  When Emily enters inside Justin's room, she looks surprised seeing Justin with the new appearance and then compliments him.

"My son you look so handsome today."

"Thanks mom.", Justin grins and replies.

"So at what time is your party going to start?", Emily asks.

Justin replies, "It's going to start at 8pm."

Emily furrows her eyebrows with confusion, seeing Justin is inside his room while it's 7:30 pm. 

"Why are you still here then?. It's 7:30 pm now you should hurry up before you end up arriving late at the party."

Justin startles in shock after hearing  it's 7:30 pm and 30 minutes are left before the starts of the party as he quickly finishes preparing himself. When Justin finishes preparing himself, he then leaves his room immediately and goes to the party, leaving Smith and his mother inside his room.

Susan pats Jade's shoulder and replies ,"Don't say that. Maybe Justin is on his way right now. Just be patient."

"But it's 8pm right now. I don't think is gonna come again at this time.", Jade replies.

Sofia intervenes and speaks, "Jade let's just enjoy the party now and don't stress yourself about Justin so much. He will eventually arrive later on,  Okay?."
