Today. The dinner is today.
I breathed in deeply as Jessie squeezed my hand. "God, you look like you've seen a ghost, honey." I laughed at her snarky comment causing a small smile to form on her glowing face. "But, I got it! Why don't you wear the dress you're mom left you."
"Jessie, I haven't touched the dress since I was 18 and I didn't even fit into it,' I said with a small smile, looking at the ground. Mom and dad left their fortune to me. They were rich but, the richness didn't save them so, I never really used the money when I was younger except for food and necessities. Mom left her dress to me though.
When I turned 18, I finally opened but, there was a huge problem, it was way smaller than me. So, I couldn't wear it.
"Em, if you don't, you'll miss out on an opportunity that you've been waiting for 10 FUCKING YEARS. You are beautiful and I know your mother would've wanted you to walk into that dinner like a fucking boss. Honey, you got a shitload of money from being the CEO of your own FUCKING company and you inherited so much. Use that as your strength because you did that on your own." I nodded as Jessie reached for the box, underneath my bed. She pulled it out and blew the dust off of it.
I watched as she opened the box revealing the dress. It was as perfect as the day I opened it. It was a sand colored dress that had a silk bottom and a heart top that was embroidered with gems. The top had two small straps that could barely be seen.
I removed the towel and quickly took the strapless white bra I had with the stickiness. Quickly I placed it on and tightened it onto my breasts. I shuddered at the cold stickiness but slowly relaxed.
I slipped on matching white lace panties and slipped them on. I grabbed the dress and put my feet through each one of the shorts part and picked it up. It fit perfectly and the leg slit reached just below the shorts part, my mid thigh. I smiled as I turned to face myself in the mirror.
My straight hair fell down to just below my boobs and my honey skin looked beautiful against the dress. It fit all my curves and I almost teared up as Jessie hugged me from behind.
"Don't cry. You're eyeliner isn't fully set yet." She said with soft sniffles. I felt the baby kick my back and we both laughed.
I turned and bent down, putting my hand to her stomach. "Hey Junior, it's your aunt Emma. I love you too and hope you'll come into this world in an amazing way darling. Don't worry, I won't ever let anyone hurt you. I took some self Defense class so your aunt has your back." He kicked again and we both giggled.
"So how you gonna get there now?" Jessie asked me. I smirked as I went to grab my heels. They were light pink pumps that went nicely with the dress. I slipped them on and faced Jessie.
"If I'm gonna show them that I've become a badass then I'm taking my fucking Tesla." She nodded her head in agreement and I winked at her.
To say I was really nervous was an understatement. But, to say I was scared is a flat out lie. Ever since I became the CEO of a design company and since I grew to meet people who saw past my body, I haven't been scared of anything. I haven't felt small in a long time.
I took a deep breath as we walked out of her house. It was like everything was slow and I looked at my car outside. I gripped the purse in my hands as Jessie's hand came on top of mine and she calmed me a bit. I opened the purse, moving from her grasp and took out the keys.
I heard every small click of my heels as I walked to the car, opening it, and getting in. Jessie smiled as I closed the door and rolled down the window.
"If anything happens, I'm here for you babe. So is Zane. Just give us a call okay?" I nodded and she bent down and kissed my cheek.
"Take care of yourself and if anything happens to you call me. And I mean it to you too Junior," I said to her stomach. She laughed and I put my key in the ignition as Jessie walked away.
