A Bet That Changed Us ︱Pablo Gavi

116: Spa day

The spa day began with an air of excitement and tranquility. Clara, Valentina, Mikky, and I arrived at the luxurious spa suite, where soft music and the scent of essential oils immediately put us at ease. Today was all about relaxation and preparing ourselves for the big day ahead.

After a brief welcome and a cup of herbal tea, we split into our respective treatments. I was particularly looking forward to getting my lashes and nails done—two things that always made me feel extra special and pampered.

First up was my lash appointment. I settled into a plush reclining chair, the soft fabric enveloping me as I prepared for the lash extension process. The aesthetician, a skilled professional with a calming presence, started by gently cleaning my lashes to remove any traces of makeup. She then applied a soothing eye pad beneath my eyes to catch any stray lashes and to ensure my eyes were comfortable throughout the process.

As she meticulously applied the extensions, I closed my eyes and let the rhythmic sounds of the spa wash over me. The delicate brush of the technician's tools and the occasional murmur of conversation from Clara and Mikky nearby created a peaceful cocoon of serenity.

Clara was nearby, getting her own lashes done, and we exchanged smiles and soft words about the upcoming wedding. "I can't believe it's almost here," she said, her voice muffled by the eye pads. "It feels like we've been planning for forever."

I chuckled softly, feeling the gentle tug of the lash extensions as they were applied. "I know. It's all going by so quickly. But I'm excited for tomorrow. You're going to look stunning."

As the aesthetician finished up, I was amazed at how natural and voluminous my lashes looked. They gave my eyes a beautifully enhanced, fluttery effect that perfectly complemented my overall look for the wedding.

Next, it was time for my manicure and pedicure. I moved to a comfortable lounge chair where a technician was ready to transform my nails. I chose a light pink shade, a soft and elegant hue that matched perfectly with my dress for the wedding. The nail technician expertly filed, shaped, and buffed my nails before applying the polish.

As she worked, we chatted about everything from wedding preparations to the best ways to manage stress during busy times. The conversation was light and enjoyable, adding to the relaxing ambiance of the spa.

Valentina, who had already completed her nail treatment, was lounging nearby, her fingers and toes perfectly polished in a classic nude shade. She gave me a thumbs-up and a grin. "Your nails are going to look amazing with your dress. You'll be the most glamorous maid of honor."

Mikky, meanwhile, was getting her own nails done in a shimmering gold that added a touch of sparkle to her look. She and Clara exchanged excited comments about the wedding and the evening ahead.

Once my nails were finished, I took a moment to admire the result. The light pink polish was immaculate, and the nails looked clean and polished, ready for the big day.

After the treatments, the spa's relaxation lounge beckoned. We all gathered there, sipping on refreshing cucumber water and enjoying light snacks. The conversation was filled with laughter and chatter about the wedding, and the stress of the previous days seemed to melt away.

I took a deep breath, feeling a sense of calm and anticipation for tomorrow. The spa day had been just what I needed to unwind and prepare for the important role I would play in Clara's wedding. As we wrapped up our time at the spa, I felt more ready than ever for the events of the next day, grateful for the moments of serenity and pampering that had helped me center myself amidst the excitement.

After a blissful day at the spa, I couldn't wait to show Pablo my newly pampered look. The soft glow of the early evening sun bathed the hotel in a warm, golden light as I walked through the door, my heart fluttering with anticipation.

I spotted Pablo lounging on the couch, his laptop open and his focus on a game of chess he was playing online. As soon as he saw me, he looked up with a smile that made my heart skip a beat.

"Hey there, beautiful," he said, setting aside the laptop and standing up to greet me.

I twirled a little, giving him a full view of my fresh lashes and perfectly polished nails. "So, what do you think? Do you like the new look?"

Pablo's eyes widened with admiration as he took in the sight of me. "Wow, Isa, you look incredible. The lashes are perfect—so full and fluttery. And those nails... they're exactly what I imagined they'd be."

I grinned, feeling a warm rush of pleasure at his praise. I moved closer to him, extending my hand so he could get a better look at the light pink polish. "I'm glad you like them. I'm really excited for the wedding tomorrow."

Pablo took my hand in his, gently running his fingers over my polished nails, savoring the smooth texture. "They look stunning. Just like you."

His gaze softened as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against mine in a tender, lingering kiss. I could taste the faint hint of his cologne mixed with the sweetness of the day's events. His kiss was slow and deliberate, filled with warmth and affection.

I responded eagerly, wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling him closer. The kiss deepened as he gently pressed his lips against mine, his tongue brushing against mine in a way that made my pulse quicken. The taste of him was intoxicating, a blend of his natural essence and the faint hint of the chocolate he'd had earlier.

As we finally pulled apart, I rested my forehead against his, catching my breath. "I missed you today," I said softly, my voice a mix of happiness and longing.

Pablo's eyes sparkled with a mix of love and playfulness. "I missed you too. And seeing you like this... it just makes me even more excited for tomorrow."

I smiled, feeling a deep sense of contentment. "Me too. I feel like everything is falling into place perfectly."

He kissed me again, this time with a gentle, lingering touch that sent a shiver down my spine. "Let's make tonight just as special. We have all the time in the world, and I want to savor every moment with you."

We spent the evening in each other's arms, savoring the quiet intimacy and connection we shared. The anticipation for the wedding only heightened our closeness, making every touch and kiss feel more meaningful.

As the night grew late, we reluctantly pulled away, knowing that the big day awaited us just around the corner. But for now, we savored the peace and warmth of our time together, ready to face whatever the future held, hand in hand.
