CHAPTER 2 OF A CRAZY RICH ASIANS FANFICTION
SHOUT OUT OF THE WEEK: Lovesickheroreader
The dreaded and long waited night has arrived. With The Leongs', all of The Bings' but Colette, The Gohs', The Khoos', all of the Chu Clan and most importantly the Older Youngs' (if your talking to Phillp Young). The food was gently simmering away, the hired help bustling around the mid century themed kitchen, however if this was say, Francesca's dinner party (she was not invited, much to Eleanor's dismay) ; the hostess would be lounging in the parlor sipping one hundred year old wine made from VVVIP grapes, however Rachel was mixing the fragrant chives and spices into the dumpling pork mixture.
" Aiyah, what a strange hostess" chattered the cooks.
" Get back to work. lah" said Ah Ling, the beloved Nanny and head of household.
Once the dumplings were made and the other dishes were simmering, the guests were arriving. first there were The Chengs, Eddie now a completely changed man, he gave a very large bear hug both to Rachel and Nick, Fiona giving them the very famous three second fashionista kiss and then following the couple off to the kitchen, Eddie off to the Kids Playroom ( Auggie, Constancetinne, Kalliste, Delphene, Chloe and Cassian have been coming over so often there were 4 ENTIRE ROOMS dedicated to them.) The others than slowly tottered in and by 5pm the whole guest list had arrived. Anyone who walked into the dining room would feel a tear as the room seemed to glow with chatter and positivity, untill...
"CLUNK, CLUNK, CLUNK"
It was Colette.
In her now restored and updated rose disk dress, everyone could now understand how she got electrocuted, that dress would cause a fire if in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"Having a Party without me".
