Chapter Fifty-Five



"I told you it would turn out perfectly," I said, carefully unwrapping the hair rollers from Nadia's dark hair as we sat at her vanity.

"Will the curls stay?" Nadia asked as she tapped her brush on the Dior highlighter palate.

How she knew how to do makeup was beyond me.

But it looked good.

And it wasn't anything crazy—just sparkly eye shadow that didn't have a color, some blush, and highlighter.

"They'll stay," I assured her, knowing I would use just enough hairspray so they did, "And how did you learn how to do makeup again?"

Nadia smiled as she glanced through the mirror at me, "Watching you and mommy," she briefly explained, lowering her brush as I grabbed the hairspray.

And as soon as the front two curls were sprayed in place and she had on the pink fluffy ball gown with the shiny white ballerina flats—we were all good to go.

Once I added one more bobby pin to her high bun, ensuring it would remain in place.

"Okay take your best guess," Nadia said as she walked down the stairs where Morana and Zane stood with Tazmin.

Although my sister and Zane already knew what Nadia's costume is.

"A princess," Tazmin said, as we approached her.

And even if I just saw her twenty minutes ago when we all had dinner—I still couldn't help but eye her appearance.

She wore a black tank top tucked into matching dress pants and a Saint Laurent belt—with the YSL buckle nearly shining under the soft lights.

Her blonde hair was slicked into a lower bun, her face bare and glowy.

I decided to match her and keep it casual too considering all we're doing is trick or treating before getting ready tonight.

It was a simple black long-sleeve romper that clung to my body and matched the Nike Airs on my feet.

My long dark hair was down and my face was bare—considering I would be putting on makeup later.

"You're almost right," Nadia said, sticking her shiny white ballet flats out from under the dress.

Which immediately made Tazmin raise a brow, "Ballet princess?" she tried again.

And just like that, Nadia was grinning—clearly happy that her costume was easy to guess.

"Good job Tazi—maybe I'll share some of my candy with you," Nadia said as she jumped down the last two stairs to give Tazmin a high five.

Which my girlfriend immediately held her hand down for.

"Don't let her fool you—she doesn't share her candy with anyone," Zane said, giving Nadia a playfully narrowed look.
