The phone call that changed my life

Date

Finally today is Saturday. Now that I think about it I've never told Victoria or someone else that I went out with Zayn, I know she would talk about it with everyone so I don't think it's a good idea.

I just hope that everything tonight will be fine. My phone vibrated so that meant I had a text message. I looked at the phone and I saw it was from Zayn. What if he says he can't tonight? I'm scared to read it...but I have to.

"Good morning, it's noon and I just woke up! I can't wait to see you tonight" I felt relieved and I texted him back smiling.

"Well good morning! I can't wait either"

"Good, wear something fancy"

"Alright"

No it's not ok at all! I don't have anything fancy! I'm so stupid...

"Giulia! Giulia you must help me. I have a date tonight and I don't have anything fancy to wear" I told her almost crying.

"Hey stay calm. We are on our lunch break and we have time. Come on, I'll take you to a store you'll love" she replied and she dragged me out of the hotel.

We were in a beautiful store now and it wasn't even very expensive. Giulia disappeared to take the dresses and I started to look around but I didn't see a dress I liked.

"Here, try these on" she said excited. I went into the dressing room and I put on the first dress she picked. It was pink with a bow behind my back. Giulia was waiting for me so I walked out. When she saw me she made a funny face.

"I don't think that one is appropriate, especially with that bow behind your butt. No, next one" I laughed and I went into the dressing room again. The second one was better. It was red and it was short. I like this one.

"Red is his favorite color" I said smiling while Giulia was smiling too.

"It's beautiful Marta. You have to buy it and if you say red it's his favorite color than buy it. But you won't wear it tonight"

"Why not?" I asked confused. I have to buy it but not wear it?

"Because it's red, it's too sexy for a first date. Did you kiss him?"

"No"

"Exactly, buy it anyway. I bet on the third one" I nodded and went back.

A couple of minutes later I saw Giulia clapping.

I was wearing a blue dress with just a strap in my right shoulder and it was perfect. I bite my lip smiling.

"What do you think?" I asked her.

"I told you this was the one. Yes, this one is perfect!" I smiled and I hugged her.

"Thank you" I told her going back in the dressing room.

"Don't thank me yet! We're not finished, we have to buy the shoes and I'll help you with your hair and make up. He's going to be with his jaw on the ground" I smiled and I paid for the two dresses.

"He just told me he's going to pick me up at 7.30 pm" I said while Giulia was finishing up my make up.

"So we just have 10 minutes" I took deep breaths trying to calm myself down. I was nervous.

"I'll call 118, he will die this time" I laughed.

"You're ready, wow Marta you look amazing. I did a great job" she said satisfied. I looked at myself in the mirror and wow, she did really a good job. The make up was light and she curled my hair.
