Not Too Late

Chapter 27

Amaya's POV

It was 9:39am and I was trying out the 5th outfit of the day. I know he said to dress casual but suddenly none of my clothes looked comfortably to me. I finally gave up and pulled out my phone to facetime Ria.

"Hey girl", Her face was etched with a smile.

"Someone looks rather happy today", I smiled at her.

"Well what can I say, I'm in a country filled with handsome hunks, why won't I be happy", She sighed dreamily.

"Earth to Ria", I snapped at her laughing, I was pretty sure she was off fantasizing about her latest victim. Poor soul, don't know what he's getting himself into. Ria had to leave to Spain to attend Lily's wedding that's tomorrow. She wanted to stay and attend my engagement but I convinced her otherwise, she had to represent both of us, lily would really appreciate the support.

"So forget about me, how was the engagement party, I saw the pictures you sent, girl you were smoking hot. I'm sure Luca couldn't take his eyes off you", I blushed remembering what happened when I came down the stairs yesterday.

"Oh shut up", I laughed.

I further told her about the gift down to the problem at hand

"Awwwwnnnnn, he's so sweet", Ria fawned. "And you don't have something to wear and your just calling me now", she scolded.

"I'm sorry but please can you help me out?", I pouted to which she sighed. She knew she could never be angry at that face.

"A fashion designer doesn't know what to wear. Well isn't that just an irony", she laughed to which I replied with a scowl of my own.

"He said to dress comfortable, why not wear that pair of trousers I got you for your birthday this year with the top we bought last week when we went shopping", she suggested.

"That doesn't actually sound bad, plus it's the perfect fit for the weather. Thanks babe, you're the best"

"Of course, whatever can you do without me", she said flipping her hair

"So you guys have any plans for today?", I asked.

"We're actually going to the spa today. Lily's husband to be booked the entire spa for us, isn't that romantic", She gushed to which I laughed. We talked for a while about how things are going before she chased me to go get ready for my date even after I had told her a million times that it wasn't a date. It wasn't, right?

The time was 9:50 by the time we ended the call, I went with Rias suggestion and threw on the outfit, I picked out some jewelry then applied lip gloss and eyeliner, wearing some cologne, I did a once over in front of the mirror just in time for me to hear a knock on the door.

"Mija, Mr O'Brien is at the door", nanny said once she opened the door.

"Thank you nanny Mei, I'll be right down", I smiled. I picked up my purse, threw my phone, some cash, my card and lipstick in before I left the room. I went downstairs telling aunt Mei that I was going out on the way to the door.

He was leaning on his car when I saw him, his fingers typing something on his phone, he hadn't noticed me yet so I took my time to admire his outfit. He wore black cargo pants, a white T shirt, a black leather jacket paired with some sweet white Jordans. He looked so different from his normal black corporate wears. He wore some rings on his finger, a silver wrist watch, a silver chain on his neck and some black shades which hung on his head. I looked up at him after I had finished my assessment to see him staring at me with a smirk on his fine lips.

"Like what you see bellisima?"

"It's okay", I said cursing when my voice cane out gruffer than it was supposed to.
