Jessica point of view.
We arrived at the mall and he went to search for gift for his father while I went to get my dress, I picked a store that has a lot of good reviews online and the cloths I saw on their dummy was really good, simple and classic.
The bell chimed when I came in and a worker went up to me, I smiled at her in return to her greeting, she was polite, that’s good, even though I am dressed in my office attire she didn’t react like most rude workers,
“Welcome to our boutique, how many I be of service ma’am ?”
“Nothing much, I want a dress, gown for a dinner party, I will be going with my husband and am sure he will be wearing black so I want something that will fit us together without colour mismatch ”
“Okay ma”
She brought out a black dress with a v neck that exposed the bosom a bit and open back that left the back down to the waist curve open, I shook my head,
“That a bit too much, the neck is fine but the back is too much and the colour, can it be in a nother colour not black”
“Sure ma”
As she was selecting cloths I decided to look around in case I saw something worth, I saw a transparent heels with diamond studs on them, I checked the price and it was quite expensive but I took it out and put it on, it was perfect fit, I took the other pair and selected a silver purse to match, seems like I have already made up my mind on the colour I want, seeing this the girl smiled,
“Ma’am, I think I know what you would love ”
“You do, then take me to it”
She laughed and I followed her, we passed a place with many beautiful dresses and I salivated at them, I will come shopping here later, it has been long since I did so,
“Here you go ma’am , your prefect dress”
I looked at the dress she was pointing and it was as if I have been hit with the light of enlightenment, it was… so so gorgeous, it’s a silver dress that hung to the body, accenting one’s figure and trailed a bit on the floor, the diamonds used in decorating it looked so pure and shiny that I had to cover my eyes a bit to get used to it, it has long sleeve lace material with flower pattern drawn and its v neck went down to the navel, a lace material was used to sew the v neck area, it only has one word for it,
“Perfect ”
The girl smiled and led me into the fitting room and I wore the cloth and came out,
“Wow, ma’am it looks very very good on you, I think it was handmade for you”
“Thank you ”
I know that she wasn’t exaggerating because it fitted me like a glove without discomforting me at all, I went back inside and carefully removed it and wore my previous cloth, the girl took it and packed it up together with the heels and purse, I left their but not without leaving a huge amount of tip for the girl that attended to me, from now on, she will be the one attending to me whenever I come there.
I continued smiling at my dress and went to the car and coincidentally Collins was also coming out of the mall too, he held a big item wrapped well in his hand and we soon left the place.
“Have you had lunch?”
“Not yet”
“We still have about 30 minutes left, let’s eat before continuing ”
“Okay then”
We stopped at a small restaurant and I order my food and drink and he did too, we ate in silence,
“Send me your bank details let me refund you back your money okay”
“Okay then”
“Once again am sorry, I really hope you have forgiven me for everything ”
“Collins, I have no grudge against you, am fine and if I haven’t forgiven you, I wouldn’t have been here with you”
“Okay, then thank you, are you done? Let’s go”
“Yes, am done, let’s go”
We left and soon reached the office, I came out carrying my cloths with me and bid him goodbye, just then I heard a camera shutter and then a flash, I looked around but I didn’t see anyone, am sure someone just took my picture just now, seeing no one I shrugged and entered the elevator.
UNKNOWN POINT OF VIEW.
“Shit, shit, this fucking camera light and shutter were on, thank goodness she didn’t find me”
“What if she knows?”
“She might know but she wouldn’t be sure since we are hiding and she didn’t see us, she will think it was just a mind trick ”
We continue taking pictures of her but then my phone rang,
“Hello”
“So did you get the perfect angles of them?”
“Yes, we did, we will sell it to the reporters soon”
“Good job, seel it to the Global company, they will love such news than other companies , they are too scared to do anything to offend the big shots but not global”
“Okay sir, we will do just that ”
He hanged up and us since our target and purpose has been fulfilled no need to wait any more time here, we left.
XAVIER’S POINT OF VIEW.
“So what am I going to do with this, can’t you all make a simple report, huh!!?”
“We are sorry sir”
“Go and redo this and don’t bring this back here not organised ”
I watched them drag their lazy bones to work, I know that Jessica would be fuming at the blatant prank I pulled at her, she must have gone out to get a dress since I received a debit, and she must have bought something that expensive to spite me and make me angry but (girl eat my money all you want, I won’t be broke hahahaha).
