6 Search for the Young Miss 6

Three days later,

Adriana helped Aria come out from the car, and she let her observe her surroundings. When Aria found out they were coming to Adriana's villa located in Paris, she was super excited, but now that she had arrived, she was way more excited.

"Wow! It's so pretty!" She squealed with a glow in her eyes. Adriana smiled. "Come on, let's go inside."

Aria was stunned. The Villa had a castle-like design, and it had a beautiful entrance. Outside guards were surrounding the house with expressionless feces. Looking at the three fancy cars parked in front of the villa, Aria was utterly amazed.

Adriana felt a tug in her arm, and she looked down, hoping her daughter liked her new home, "Mommy, you are wealthy." She blurted out. Ralf, who was behind them, couldn't hold back his laughter.

Even Adriana chuckled and led her inside. "Let's go meet your brother now."

The guards opened the doors, and two lines of servants appeared. It all looked rehearsed in the little girl's eyes. She had never seen anything so odd.

She walked beside her mom and entered the house. Besides a young woman, she found familiar, and your boy resembling her stood. She smiled nervously, hoping her brother would like her. She gripped onto the of her dress because of her nervousness.

She had gotten closer to her mother easily because of how similar they are, and she hoped it would be like this with her brother too. Everything was just so unfamiliar to her.

James gripped onto his aunties hand, nervously. 'Will my sister like me? Should I just hug her? Will that make her uncomfortable?' He wondered.

"Go hug your sister. I'm sure she is excited about meeting you." Crysty whispered beside him. "How? Do I smile, or do I just hug her?" James asked in confusion. He isn't the kind to get affectionate with strangers. He doesn't ever let his guard down when he's around unfamiliar people, but when around his auntie or mother, he turns into a cute little boy his age.

But this is his sister. As the little girl approached them with his mother beside her, he got even more nervous. "Hi! My name is Aria." Aria decided to give him a bright, confident smile to hide her nervousness.

James blushed, and he smiled back. "My name is James." He greeted her back. Adriana smiled at their cute interactions. "James, show your little sister around so you guys can get to know each other," Adriana told him, and James nodded his head.

"Hey, I'm here!" Crysty joked. Adriana smiled. "Cristina Brooks, one of the top models and also JUSTINE's model. Wow!" Aria's eyes twinkled. "That's me!" Crysty winked. "I'm your mom's best friend, and I'll be taking care of you while she's busy working!" She added, already looking forward to it.

"Adriana, you should work more so I can take care of them more often," Crysty smirked, and Adriana rolled her eyes.

"Come with me." James smile, and he handed out his hand. Aria smiled back, and she held his hand. Jame sled her away from the two adults into the garden. He considers the back of the villa where the garden and the pool is the best place. He hoped just like him. She would find the garden beautiful.

"Wow! It's so pretty." Aria grinned, looking at the beautiful flowers. "It is! The pool is over there, and let me show you what's around the water fountain." He led her with excitement. He showed her the hidden entrance through some bushes that showed a small human-made lake leading to a house. A little playhouse James and Adriana had prepared almost a year ago together.

"Me and mom made you something." He explained. Aria was quiet because of how amazed she was.

After giving her a small tour of the outside of the house, both returned inside the house. They walked towards Crysty and Adriana, who were conversating.

Adrian saw them, and she smiled. "Now, let's go show you your room." She offered and bid goodbye to Crysty because she had to leave.

Adriana opened a door in front of her room and next to James' place. The color of the decoration was a mixture of pink. There was a small bed and a playing area along with a whole closet with clothes already set up. After taking Aria's measurements, Adriana ordered some clothes for her, and after learning her likes and dislikes, she arranged a design for her room and asked her servants to have it all set.

"We can change anything if you don't like it." Adriana reminded her, "No, it's perfect thank you!"

"You don't have to thank me. If you ever have anything that you don't like just tell me and I will fix it for you." Adriana assured her. She wanted to make sure that Aria would be as comfortable as possible.

Looking at how sleepy Aria was feeling, Adriana laid her down on her new bed and waited for her to fall asleep. She had promised to show her around the house when she woke up and then they would eat dinner.

Adriana picked up James in her arms, and she kissed his cheek. "I missed you, mommy." H pouted. "I missed you too, baby. Promise me that you will take care of your sister, okay?" She asked, and James nodded his head.

"She still doesn't know us well, so it will take a while before we can be close to her. Let's try to make her happy with us."

-------

After that day, many more passed, and Aria became friends with James. Slowly she started getting used to her mother and brother's presence.

After so many years away from her daughter Adriana was relieved. She could now finally proceed to the next step.

She had time to spend her children's birthday that year. A few weeks through her days with Adriana, Aria eventually found out that she's JUSTINE, the designer she admires so much. IT was a sweet surprise. Adriana wanted to tell her, but she wanted Aria to be used to her first just to see her a designer she admires but as her mother.

Because of all the little clues Adriana unknowingly left behind, Aria came to know the truth. She wasn't upset but excited about it, and she admired Adriana as her 'mother' and not just some famous designer.

-------

A year later,

"Stop running, or you'll fall," James warned her. "Brother, are you worried about me?" Aria winked and continued running backward.

"Tsk tsk, is not my problem if you end bruised. Humph!" He turned away, acting indifferently. "Ah!" When he heard Aria's scream, he immediately turned away and scolded her. He helped her up and attended to her injuries. He even wiped her tears with his thump and gave her candy to distract her from the pain.

Adriana, who was watching the scene from the window, smiled. "The young master doesn't express his feelings well, but he indeed cares a lot about the Young Miss." Ralf pointed out. Adriana nodded in agreement.

"Ma'am, why don't you take them on vacation? There will be some people coming to attack you and LABELS this Saturday. It's best if you use this opportunity to take them out." Ralf offered.

"I guess you are right. Although they won't be able to attack me directly, I can use it as an excuse to take them out. Their birthday is coming soon! I'll make use of this opportunity." She grinned.
