I move us quickly across the elongated room. Hoping to avoid being stopped to chit chat about another company plan or complement of my presence. I frequent these events only to find others to sneak off to the real party.
His height overshadows me so I can easily tell that he is following. Happily I might add. It doesn't surprise me that anyone would want to flee this place if given the opportunity. When finally we approach the elevator I press the up button. Faintly I hear him and the name on his voice causes me to spin around quickly. In my excitement to see my cousin, I leap forwards with arms extended, "Kylin!! You're here," I quickly look back to where the elevator door begin to part with a ding, before reaching out and grabbing her hand, "Perfect timing Cuz! Hurry! Get in!" I shush them into the carrier and, once we are all in, I press my hand to the sensor and allow the machine to recognize me. Lighting green upon completion, I hit the P emblem then turn to face them, "The real party of course! I'm Karat by the way," I giggle in amusement at my finds. Eagerly awaiting the pulleys to bring us to the roof top...

The golden doors open to reveal a smashing pool party. Being the gracious host that I am I wave them to exit the elevator. Tossing the fallen strands of blonde locks from my eyes before exiting myself. I skip forwards and towards the bar but my eyes catch the glass bottles in Ivars hands, "I'd offer you a drink but it seems you already found one." My voice is light and witty. Turning to Kylin I ask, "What would you like?" Once I have her order I rush to the bar. My gaze meeting a few friends and family that have already made it to pool level. I smile and wave before finding myself ordering our drinks. I can't help but notice the midnight sky and sliver of moon above us.
With drinks in hand, I head back to where I had left them. Finding them chatting and not far off. I don't bother to ask how they know one another. It was most likely at a meeting my uncle had dragged her to. None of us kids went willingly. Handing Kylin her drink, I sip from the florescent straw in mine, before looking towards the pool. "You got your suit on right?" My question directed at Kylin. She, of anyone, should know to have worn one. Clothes never last long at the parties here. At the same moment I look to the man standing in a grey suit and snicker before tracing up his body with my eyes, "You won't need one." I wink as I nibble my straw again before turning to set my drink on a delicate glass table near the poolside. Others were already indulging in games of water volleyball and chicken fight by the time they had arrived. Droplets of water splash up towards them. Threatening to ruin their party attire. "I am gonna go take this uncomfortable thing off..." My eyes look to the shower room/bathroom across the way, "Coming Kylin?"
