"A Hearty Party Is A Hardy"

Chapter Three

First Guests

Watching through the blinds, Cassandra was always worrying about if she missed anything before the guests could enter the doorstep. She took a quick glance around the room, observing that the arcade cabinet was powered on, the catering table was sealed in plastic wrapping to ensure that the food is still fresh, the eating table was all set and the chairs were neatly tucked in, the interior decorations were all in their places, and the building interior itself was absolutely spotless. All seemed well from her point-of-view, but she still fears that something was still out of place, but she had no time to assess the situation at the moment, as she was watching with her sister, Sophitia, the outside of the house through the closed window blinds, observing the two cars and the guests that had arrived way before schedule. Sophitia had noticed that the exterior decorations box was still out there in the visible grass, hoping that no one would notice.

The first vehicle that the sisters had observed was a red Holden Monaro CV8 that was in a seemingly well-maintained condition. They had spotted three occupants in the vehicle while the two doors began to open, revealing the passengers inside. The first to exit was, from the driver's seat, Maxi, in whom was known for his Elvis-like hair and mastery of the nunchaku. Second to exit was from the passenger side, in whom was Kilik, along with his 'date', Xianghua, a well-known couple amongst the 'posse'. Maxi had brought along his two friends in his car instead of them having to use their own, only because he thinks that he will receive bragging rights for the best car. They were all walking together towards the entryway, approaching the door.

"I think we will have a great time together. How about you, Kilik?" Xianghua had questioned her partner. She wasn't afraid or shy to express her true feelings about him to the public or in front of other people, as there is quite a strong bond between the two.

"Yeah, I would think so too," Kilik replied, fixing his hair with his right hand as Xianghua held his left hand tightly.

"Ahhh, yeah. I could really use some fuel for both me, and my car" Maxi blurted as he stretched his body back while he moved forward. It was obvious that he was one of the car fanatics that was attending this party, hence why he spared Kilik and Xianghua from using their ride to come to the party. Maxi had a strong urge that he was going to receive attention from himself and his car, and he means 'feminine' attention.

"It's the trio," Cassandra had whispered to her fellow sister, stating out the obvious. Apart from the three approaching the door, the girls took a glance at the second vehicle that was parked. From what it had seemed from the window, the car was a blue pearl Hyundai Tiburon, with blue tinted windows, a switchblade-styled wing, and high-performance street racing tires.

"That would obviously be Yun-Seong," Cassandra had said to Sophitia.

"And how would you know that?" Sophitia replied back to her, raising an eyebrow.

"Ulgh, don't take it the wrong way sis. Everyone knows his car and his face around the lot here and there," Cassandra had said back to her sister.

"Then how come I don't know his car?" Sophitia said, trying to ensure that it was actually Yun-Seong. Cassandra sighed, as she had no other reason to prove whether it was really him or not. The truth came to Cassandra's side when Yun-Seong had emerged from the driver's side of the car, closing his door, then walking over to the passenger door, opened it, then he lent a hand to his 'date' for the party, Talim, in whom was the youngest girl that would be attending. She had doubts that she would be told to leave for being underage to attend, but she still kept her cheerful smile on her beautiful face.

"Do you think that they will give us the boot?" Talim asked her companion in a sweet tone of voice, in which was modestly pleasing to Yun-Seong's ears.

"Don't you worry," he said back to her. He adored her sensitive feelings towards things, and he tried to be the same around her, but she would always see it past him way too quickly. "I'm sure that there are 'things' that you can't dare to touch in there yet. You know the wine and other liquor, but they should have no other reason to ask us to leave. Besides, I think that they have this awesome arcade machine in there with thousands of games to play. I hope it doesn't take in coins."

"Could we play together?" Talim asked him, again with her sweet and sensitive tone of voice.

"Of course we can! I would have no reason to not let you," he said back to her, winking with his right eye. His attention was caught by the sight of Maxi's vehicle. He was surprised, not to mention pleased, that one of his friends was here, in a different case of speaking. Not saying another word, he and Talim walked forward together, approaching the doorway. However, Yun-Seong's car had its passenger door ajar. There was someone else inside of the vehicle. In a second, a man came out with a girl standing adjacent to him. Indeed, it was Hwang Sung Kyung, along with Seong-Mina that exited the vehicle, with Hwang closing the open door. They walked together towards Yun-Seong and Talim.

"Thanks for the transportation," Hwang had called out to Yun-Seong, who had turned around to face him, with Talim following suite.

"Yeah, surprised that you didn't crash the car or anything," Seong-Mina had blurted to him, giggling slightly as she threw her left arm around Hwang's waist.

"Hey! Don't you know when to shut up?" Yun-Seong had violently replied back to her. "If it wasn't for you and your boyfriend making out back there, I would have-"

"Hey, I think that's about enough of that," Talim had hushed Yun-Seong, obeying her request. "I wouldn't want any trouble at the party, would you?"

"Heh, you got lucky Mina," Yun-Seong murmured, looking away. They reached the door as soon as Maxi rang up the doorbell. Yun-Seong payed a visit to Maxi and greeted him, while Talim, Seong-Mina, and Hwang greeted Xianghua and Kilik. Shortly after the doorbell, Cassandra and Sophitia were standing at the ready, with adrenaline rushing through their bodies. They were both a bit nervous, and a bit excited at the same time.

"Are you ready, Cassandra?" Sophitia had quietly said to her.

"Are you ready, sis?" Cassandra said back to her sister. Sophitia had decided that she would open the door first and greet everyone who was waiting for the doorbell to be answered, but adrenaline grew stronger in the both of them for every millisecond they waited. Sophitia turned the doorknob, and slowly swung the door open.

End A\N: Woah, that was long, well, for me to write anyways. I had a hard time to think about what car to give Maxi, so I gave him the Holden Monaro CV8! :) And for those of you wondering, here are the exact car models they owned: Maxi had a 2003 Holden V2 III Monaro CV8, while Yun-Seong's car was a 2007 Hyundai Tiburon. I kinda stressed on the car details a bit, but I hope that didn't bother anyone too much. As always, don't forget to review, and stay tuned for the next chapter.
