The next day came so fast i felt like i didn't have enough sleep at all.
I got out of bed and went to have a quick shower , brush my teeth and i was too lazy to even brush my hair so i just tied it up in a messy bun.
i went downstairs and to no surprise at all my mom was already up and continuing with whatever work she was left with . The house was looking grand to be honest and i feel like it took everything in her to come up with these decorations. Its not like the rest of the decorations she used to put up were bad , its just that this one was better than the rest.
This time she had gone with a much darker theme for the whole setting. She removed the floral yellow curtains that we had and replaced them with dark purple ones that looked a bit aesthetic. The marble floor looked shiny and polished and whoever polished it did a really good job with it. There were tables that were put everywhere around the room and there were a total of six chairs around a table. The room was really huge by the way , you can compare to a church hall. There were vases on each table and there were fresh flowers in each...it would be a shame if there was someone allergic .
The whole room was just dark , like in an aesthetic way...i love it. For the first time i actually thought to myself that this will be the only function that i would not regret going to at all . Surprisingly i was actually looking forward to this function.
That was until i started looking for what i should wear .
I was now in my room racking through all the eventful clothes that i owned. Most of my clothes were just hoodies and a bunch of jeans , ripped jeans to be precise. I've been to a lot of parties, yes , but i don't think the dresses i had were suitable for this kind of function, it seemed important.
I just decided to put on one of my less revealing dresses that i had. it was a long orange dress with thin straps and it covered my ankles.It was actually not that bad for a function ,right.
''so i guess this will be fine for tonight '' i spoke to myself trying to reassure myself. What could possibly go wrong .

Later that day Jess decided to come by and we would get ready together . By this point the party was only in 3 hours.
''Ash you need to get ready quickly the function is gonna start soon'' Jess said taking out her outfit that she had put in my closet.
'' I know , i just don't know what to wear '' i lied .
'' Fine show me your options '' she said leaving what she was doing .
'' I got a few but there's only one that i think is suitable for the function '' i said taking the dress from the hanger .
''Then what are you waiting for go put it on '' she said .
I went into the bathroom taking off the hoodie and a pair of jeans that i was wearing . I fit myself into the dress and surprisingly i loved it. It had a really huge slit on the right leg and now i started having second choices . The dress was beautiful and it exposed my leg , thigh high , but that was not the problem . It was not only exposing my thigh , it also exposed my tattoo. Yes , i did have a tattoo but only a few people knew about it. My mom was always against me wearing a tattoo and i'm really sure she would opposing me not to wear this dress.
It was quite a big tattoo honestly. It was a rose with vines that spiraled from my thigh to my hip. It was really pretty but i don't know why my mom hated it .
Well when have i ever listened to her about what i wear , i don't really care about what she thinks about it. In fact , i think i'm going to wear it just to spite her a little bit. I never wanted to attend this function anyway so i might as well have some fun.
When i was done i exited the bathroom and went to show Jess the outfit that i had chosen for myself.When i tell you her jaw dropped....
''WOW , What in the name sexiness are you wearing '' she said getting up from the bed .
''and you have the audacity to say you have nothing to wear , like what '' she said studying my whole outfit.
''So is it good , how do i look '' i asked her .
'' Good ? Girl you look out of this world '' she said almost yelling .
''you are definitely going to wear that dress , i don't care if you like it or not '' she said going back to sit .
'' So i'm wearing this dress then . Now its time for me to fix my hair ''i said turning around towards my mirror.
''Wait a sec...'' Jess said squinting her eyes at me .
'' What is it '' i said looking at her confused .
'' Is that what i think...Ash you have a tattoo ?!'' Jess practically screamed at me jumping from the bed .
''Oh that , yeah i do '' i shrugged with a smile
''wow it's beautiful '' she said and started inspecting it tracing the vines of the rose on my thigh.
'' I think you should be getting dressed now its getting late'' i said going to fix my hair .
'' OK, i know '' she said and grabbed her dress. It was actually a pretty dress ,a navy blue one that was quite long too.
time skips

The function had already started and the hall was already filled with guests. And to no surprises at all the media was there too .
'' Ash come on let's go already''Corey came into my room. Of course like always she looked stunning .
''I know i'm coming '' I said brushing my hair for the last time .I had decided that i would put on a little make up ,which was Jess' work and let my hair flow down my back for today. It was long , wavy and bounce. With one last brush i got up from my chair and followed Corey and Jess was right in front of me.
'' wow'' Jess said looking down at the people who were downstairs. I was completely mesmerized by the finishing touches of the decorations .It was dark and aesthetic just the way i liked it ....you could have thought it was mafia party.
''Come on let's go '' Corey said and with that we all started descending down the stairs. I could feel that all eyes were on us three going down the stairs. I saw some ladies giving us looks that really said a lot but who am i to care.
When we were down the staircase i spotted my dad sitting with some men on what looked like a VIP sector but he was giving me a smile nonetheless .My mom on the other side was looking at me with widened eyes and i don't know if she was surprised that i actually showed up or the fact that i was actually dressed for a function , properly this time. I just shrugged her off and started looking around the hall.
As expected , everyone was dressed to perfection .All ladies were either wearing gowns or just big dresses in general, with huge hills . I turned back to were my dad was sitting and noticed that among all the men that were sitting at the VIP section , one of them looked unfamiliar. He had a blank face but he had this dark aura that he carried . He's whole posture was screaming authority and power with his drink in hand. To my random guess my mind just said that's definitely The Antonio Alfredo . There were bodyguards that were surrounding the section.
'' Hello beautiful'' i suddenly heard a voice at the side of my heard .I swear i would have punched that person but i knew exactly who's voice it belonged to.
'' Lamer'' i said not even bothering to look at him.
This was going to be a hell of a night I could feel it.
He's here ya'll
