Siya’s Apartment, Early Evening

Siya is just finishing up a quiet evening at home when her phone buzzes with Alex’s name flashing on the screen. Her lips widens with a beautiful smile. She answers, bit excited.

Siya: (smiling) Hey, Alex! What’s up?

Alex: (with a mischievous tone) Hey, beautiful. I have a surprise for you tonight. I need you to get ready. And check your doorstep in a few minutes. I’ve sent you something to wear!

Siya: (giggling, surprised) What....??? A surprise? Alex, what are you up to?

Alex: Yes my girl, just trust me. I’ll let you know when the car’s outside to pick you up. Now, go check your door.

Excited and a bit flustered, Siya hangs up and rushes to her doorstep. There, she finds a neatly wrapped box with a small note in Alex’s handwriting: “For my favorite girl.” She opens the box, her eyes widening as she pulls out a stunning red backless dress, elegant and bold. She blushes, already imagining Alex’s reaction.

Siya’s Bedroom

Siya takes her time getting ready, carefully slipping into the dress and admiring herself in the mirror. The dress hugs her curves perfectly, its deep red color giving her an air of confidence she didn’t even know she had. She lets her hair fall naturally and adds a touch of makeup, her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Siya: (blushing and whispering to herself) I hope he likes it…

Her heart races as she finishes the final touches, glancing at herself in the mirror with a wide smile. She looks beautiful, and she feels beautiful — like she’s about to step into a magical evening.

Siya’s Living Room,

Just as she finishes getting ready, her phone rings again. It’s Alex!!

Alex: (playful tone) Are you ready, gorgeous?

Siya: (grinning, trying to play it cool) I think so… But where are you taking me, Alex? This is all so mysterious!

Alex: (chuckling) It’s a surprise, Siya. You’ll see. Just step outside — the car’s waiting for you. And don’t be nervous, okay?

Siya: (smiling, blushing) Nervous? Who’s nervous? I’m just… curious, that’s all.

Alex: (teasingly) Sure, sure. Now go on. I’ll be waiting.

He hangs up, leaving her with a mixture of excitement and curiosity. She takes a deep breath, smoothing out her dress before she grabs her clutch and heads out the door.

Outside Siya’s Apartment

Outside, a sleek black car is waiting, the driver opening the door for her with a polite smile.

Driver: Ms. Siya, Mr. Alex has asked me to bring you to him. Please, make yourself comfortable.

Siya slides into the backseat, unable to contain her smile. As the car pulls away, she gazes out the window, her mind racing with thoughts of where Alex might be taking her. Her fingers instinctively brush over the fabric of her dress, thinking about how thoughtful Alex had been to pick it out for her.

In the Car

Siya fidgets slightly, still smiling to herself. Her mind drifts, replaying moments with Alex — his laughter, his reassuring words, his thoughtful gestures. Tonight feels like the beginning of something new, something she’s always dreamed of!!
