Cake (Nino Love Story)

Chapter 4

Raven

Hmmm. Well, I don't know what's trend and what's not. So I guess, Nino is right. Maybe its old fashion and outdated.

But this is what I like, should I base to what everyone should think? Or I can also have the things that I want without judgement? Well, that's how the world works so I'll just follow.

"Okay, let's buy that black suit" I said.

Nino was just staring at me at the counter.

I wonder what she is thinking. Ever since high school, I know Nino's pretty fashionable, so she knows what's better to wear. I might hurt her pride if I show myself at the party wearing that blue flowery suit.

We purchased the black suit then got inside the car first, she said she needs to buy her make-up but I believe she still has plenty of make-up at home, guess she wants to have lots of beauty products.

So I take a nap while waiting for her.
Around 5 minutes of waiting, she's heading to the car, held a huge box she bought.

"What is that?" I asked her.

She replied, "Oh! A whole set of make-up"

My reaction was nothing, maybe I just don't want to start a conversation with Nino. We are just quiet inside the car, I got the pillow at back and hugged it.

She was just staring at me and maybe she got bored with the quiet atmosphere, so, she asked me if I am alright and I told her that I'm fine.

And back with the boring mood again.

We arrived at our house and Nino looks very sad, but she's not showing it, I just noticed it.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing." her reply was passive and I'm not happy about it.

I came close to Nino and held both of her hands. I looked at her stunningly, beautiful, and innocent eyes.

"Please, tell me what's bothering you? Hmm?" I sincerely say while looking directly into her eyes.

"If it's about the black suit then I'll wear that for you"

She burst out, crying.

"I'm sorry!"
"I'm sorry!"

"That was so insensitive of me love. I only thought about my preference and didn't even bother to ask what you like."

She turns around and walks away and at that moment I feel uneasy, so I called her name to make sure what she feels but she gave me a response that made me confuse.

"Wait" is all that she said, so, I did.

A little while, she's walking towards my direction, Nino is carrying a box again.

"What's with the box?" I asked her.

She slowly handed it over to me saying,

"Open it." showing her cute blushy face.

I carefully opened it and my eyes widen. I'm a little shocked, what I'm seeing is the flower suit that I like!

"Why did you buy it?" I asked her, confused.

"I was looking at your face and check your facial expression, although you said that we will just buy the black suit. I know from the bottom of your heart, you also want to try that flower suit"

"Sorry if I'm being too selfish and I promise to be more mature next time" Nino said wholeheartedly.

"You know what, I think the black suit looks fine to me. I will just wear this flower suit next time, at least I have 2 pairs of suits now." I said while smiling.

"Okay? Stop crying and let's prepare" I added then kiss her cheek.

"Sounds great!" she said while wiping her tears.

So we prepare for the celebration the location is 1km. away, not so far, yet not so near.

Nino tells me that I will drive because she gonna be doing her make-up. Maybe, she doesn't want to be late that's why she's doing her make-up inside our car.

A little while, Nino finished her make-up and we also arrived at our destination. It is a very huge hotel that I think, it's only for the rich.

I look at Nino's face and she's not shocked or showed any emotion, well maybe because Nino used to live in a huge condo with her sisters. But for me? It's my first time! Hopefully, I won't mess up.

Nino asks, "What's wrong?"

"I'm a little tense"

Well, she knows it's my first time. This is the reason I need my wife to come with me to this party.

We head to the reception area to ask for the details about the party and then they give us the masked.

"What's the thing about the mask?" I asked my wife.

Because what I thought, it will be used for games later. Better confirm it from the expert.

"Love, it's a masquerade party. Sure there will be dancing and singing but I doubt the game's part"

I thank my wife for that information. That's new to me.

After getting the details, a person that was called by the receptionist assisted us to where the party will take place.

While we're walking, I feel that I need to release some water to my bladder.

"Uhmm love, I need to go in the restroom, I'll be back."

"Okay, love." giving me a smile.

I ask the person assisting us to tell me where the comfort room is located. He gave me the direction right away.

"Okay got it! Just go ahead. I'll just catch up."

"You sure?" Nino asked.

"Just straight this way sir, you'll see a huge black door, that is where the party is taking place" the assistant said, confirming it.

I thanked him and faced the right way and walk.

Checking the area turning left and right, the hotel looks cool! I bet the owner is super-rich. While having those thoughts, I saw a man and a sexy woman coming out of the male's comfort room.

I freaked out a little and they turned their heads on me, the girl looks like a prostitute but the guy is wearing a mask so I haven't checked his face but I know he's a wealthy man. He put his index finger into his mouth, that sign means he wants me to shut my mouth, which I would do, of course!

But it's really good to be energetic, after that scene, I hit the comfort room.
