Amy laughed at her comment and said, "I wanted to get settled here properly first before surprising you. And look, now I'm here in front of you in all glory..."

Veronica smiled and said, "That's good that you're finally here and at the correct time. Bennie had arranged a party tomorrow so you will be there with us. I'm so happy right now that all of my friends will be with us on the special day of our life."

Amelia too smiled at her and suggested, "Hmmm… Why not we do one thing? We'll wait for tomorrow to come before giving all of my friends a big surprise together about my return back here…specially Lucinda.."

As Amelia mentioned Lucinda's name specifically, Veronica frowned a little bit as she knew that Amelia always had a bitter temperament towards Lucinda and was jealous of her from her childhood...

Though Amelia was also Veronica's friend but it couldn't be compared with the friendship between her and Lucinda. So Veronica decided to keep an eye on Amelia so that she couldn't harm her bestie at any cost.

"Uhmmm…Amy… Why don't you accompany me to the beauty parlor? Reuben had made an appointment with them for me. I'll anyways get bore if I go there alone. So you also come with me." Veronica suggested so that she could spend some time with Amelia.

But the biggest reason was to know about her whereabouts, specially her reason to come back to city S all of a sudden without even a prior notice to them.

This single action of hers was enough to create a big doubt in Veronica's mind which was quite obvious too..!!

"Yeah sure.. Now that you've told me about the party, then I've to prepare myself to look the best." Amelia chirped as both of them left Creation after a few minutes...

Smith's Mansion…

The living room was filled with both youngsters and elders. But for the first time ever, everyone was sitting there in silence which was very much unexpected from them.

The youngsters were sitting at one side whereas the elders on the opposite. But the middle seat was occupied by the great Reuben Smith who was carrying a nervous expression on his face...

Everyone's eyes were focused on only him specially the girls who wore a confusing appearance.

"For god's sake… will someone please tell me what's happening here? Why are we waiting here patiently when we should prepare ourselves for tomorrow's party?" Lucinda couldn't control her irritation anymore.

"Actually girls.. We have hidden something from you both." Neil said, clearing his throat making both Willa and Lucinda glare at him.

"Uhmm..Girls, don't glare at us. It was all Reuben's plan to not tell you." Henry safe guarded himself from their murdered glares.

It was enough for Willa to control so she just asked impatiently, "Will someone tell us what's the matter here?"

Noticing the frustration in the girls' behaviour, Reuben finally blurted out, "Tomorrow's party is not a simple one but a surprise engagement party for Ica and me.."

"What!!!" came an exasperated exclamation from the girls which made the boys scared like hell whereas the elders along with Jack and Louis chuckled.

Reuben nodded his head as if to confirm their doubt and said, "I'm going to propose Veronica for marriage tomorrow. And for that, I need all of your help."

Both Lucinda and Willa couldn't come out of the shocking news of Reuben's proposal when he already asked for their help which made them more furious.

"Oh!!! So when you need to plan about your engagement, you want to keep it secret from us. And when you need help from us, you just abruptly informed about it. Why don't ask your so called best friends to help you in this too?" Lucinda said giving a glare to the boys.

Reuben shook his head at them and sweet talked in a requesting tone, "Please my lovely sisters...help me out this time. I can only trust you in the dance department, not these idiot friends of mine."

"Who are you calling idiots, brother?" Louis felt  extremely offended.

Reuben showed him his eyes to stop him so that he couldn't ruin his plan and waited for the girls to reply.

"Dance?" Willa asked excitedly.

Reuben nodded his head and explained everything to them in details which made the girls wowed on his super duper idea.

Their excitement had no boundary as Lucinda exclaimed in joy, "Count me in." 

Willa also clapped in excitement and said, "Yeah, me too.."

Reuben grinned at his another success and asked, "So is everyone ready for this? Shall we start our dance practice then?"

Before the youngsters could reply, the elders cheered up merrily, "Yes…."

Like this, started their hours of practicing for next day...

Love-Paradise…

It was already 10 pm. But there was no trace of Reuben anywhere which was making Veronica frustrated.

She tried to call him many times but every time his phone was coming to be switched off, scaring her from the depth of her heart.

"Where is this boy? Not even picking up my phone? I understand that he's busy in preparation but he should at least call me for once." Veronica was muttering to herself while placing in the living room frantically.

Half an hour later, she finally heard the screeching sound of the car tyres and she ran towards the door. Opening it, she came face to face to a very tired Reuben whose hairs were ruffled which were falling on his pale face..

His suit was hanging on his hand with his tie loose around his neck. Exhaustion was clear on his face which stopped Veronica from scolding him for his irresponsibility.

"Baby.. Why are you so tired? Do one thing, change up first and take a nice bath. You don't need to come down anymore as I'll bring your dinner in our bedroom." Veronica said with worry filled in her eyes, gulping down all of her pent up frustration for him.
