Thalassa paced back and forth in the living room. It had been over an hour since Luisa had gone upstairs after their argument, and Thalassa was really bothered.

Usually, Luisa would call and ask her opinion about what dress to wear or how her make up looked, but she hadn't called her tonight.

With a sigh, Thalassa climbed the stairs and knocked on Luisa's bedroom door.

"Luisa, do you need my help with anything?" she asked.

"No, thanks," came the curt reply.

Thalassa pressed her lips together in frustration. Turning, she made her way back downstairs. Just as she reached the bottom, the doorbell rang.

"Hey, Thalassa," he greeted. "Is Luisa ready?"

"I'll go get her for you "

Before she could call for Luisa, her friend appeared at the top of the stairs and began descending, her eyes lighting up when she saw Alden.

Alden's gaze never left Luisa. "You look gorgeous," he whispered.

Luisa blushed slightly and smiled. "Thank you."
