Gloves And Us ✔

E V E N T

UPDATEOOO

We were now sat in the car and it was really hot. The car was hot. The car of course.

I turned to him. "What is the event for?"

"It's for the army and the high-end government officials," He said,

"Whenever you feel like it's too much, you'll tell me. We'll leave at the same moment. You are my plus one today, but Avaha Campbell an inspiring designer too. Don't forget that" I nodded and thought about how I'd talk to anybody. Should I say 'Hii' or like 'hello'

But hello will be too formal. and Hii would be too informal. Should I-

"Stop stressing, woman. Stop" His voice broke my running thoughts and I sheepishly smiled at him.

"You know me too well" I brought his head down and kissed his lips tenderly.

He groaned and before the kiss could be deepened, I pulled away and faced his glare. "Fucking tease" he grunted and fixed the platinum diamond necklace that he had given me with much love.

"What if I lose it?" I asked.

"You won't" he shook his head "And even if you do we'll get it back or I'll let it go and throw away all your plants" he smiled.

I gasped "You won't. Those are my plants, you can't throw them away. Just yesterday I planted lettuce. And few have already started growing. You are not touching them in any way" I jabbed his chest with each word.

He nodded. "Then the necklace would be safe, no?" his dimples appeared and I nodded frantically. "yes. yes. I'll keep it safe. I will"

He then held me closer to his body. "When your periods pain becomes even a bit more, you tell me, please" he took my hand in his other hand and rubbed my knuckles.

"I will. I'm still trying to not sleep on this seat" I laughed a bit but he didn't.

"I had already told you let's skip this, but no. Woman gotta be fucking stubborn" he glared at me. I didn't really want him to miss another event 'coz of me.

"Sir" the driver turned and announced. The window got back up, closed once he nodded.

"Breathe, amor. Breathe. Take your time" he said, easing my panic.

After two or more minutes, I nodded reluctantly and he got out and came to my side, and opened my door.

"Mi'lady" I blushed and took his black glove-clad hand in my gloved ones. The moment we stepped out of the car, the cameras flashed onto our faces and surely those flashing noises would hurt my ears for days. How can some people do this every day?

The guards came around us and escorted us inside ignoring the 'Is she your girlfriend?' questions.

Once inside, I noticed how tightly I had held Caro's hand. He ducked a bit and cradled my face in his hands.''Spirant. Breathe" He sterned out and I tried to inhale and exhale like a normal person, trying not to make him appear stupid for coming with a freak.

"Good girl. My good girl" I smiled giddily and hugged his waist.

"Ready?" he asked and removed the hair out of my face and kept it flowing like before. On nodding, he held my hand in his and we went inside.

The inside was all brown floor accompanied with the white curtains and white-clothed chairs. It looked simple yet amazing. Feeling a tug I looked up at him.

"Be confident, baby. Don't be scared. Remember you are one strong woman and no taking shit from people. No one" he said sternly but with a gentle voice and I nodded smiling at him.
