Diamond Pumps

6. A redhead model appeared

Ash got out of his car and closed the door. He unlocked his car and walked toward the gate of his grandparents' house. They don't call him everyday to ask him to come, but who would say no to grandma Eleanor's food?

The door opened as soon as Ash rang the doorbell. "Ash! Dear!"

"Hi grandma."

"Come on in, handsome!" Eleanor giggled. "Look at you!"

Ash chuckled nervously. Sometimes, he wore those designer suits, and today he picked an all-black look. It really depends on the mood. He had other plans today, but it didn't work out. He still couldn't find the redhead woman around that street.

"Come! I want to introduce you someone."

Ash blinked. His grandmother held his hand and led him to the living room. He chuckled when he saw his mom sitting on the couch. "Well, I know my mom alr-..."

He paused when he noticed another woman sitting on the opposite side.

"Ash, this is Serena Yvonne." Eleanor gestured to the thin petite girl sitting in a lady-like manner.

Ash turned to look at his mother. She smiled.

He looked at Serena. The young woman smiled. "Hi."

"This is Ash! He's shy, excuse him." Eleanor put her hands on Ash's shoulder. She looked him up and down. "He looks ready for the occasion, doesn't her? It couldn't be a coincidence!"

Delia chuckled lightly. "Totally not."

Serena smiled politely, her eyes not leaving Ash.

"You can stay here - which I wouldn't advise much because I have a very curious daughter-in-law - but you can also go somewhere nice, have dinner and get to know each other!"

"Like, dinner, with her?" Ash was speaking to his grandmother. "Why?"

"Oh, sweetie - you don't get enough of jokes, do you?" Eleanor and Delia chuckled nervously. It was those chuckles behind hands Ash didn't trust much.

"Shall we?" Serena picked up her purse and got up. She looked at Ash. "What are you suggesting?"

"I was..." Ash looked stunned upon seeing Serena's full figure. She was wearing a very short dress and it suited her well. "I was thinking I could get some of grandma's food."

"Okay, sweetie, you should head out before restaurants get all packed!" Eleanor pushed Ash toward the door. "Take Serena for some seafood."

"I'm allergic to shrimp." Serena spoke from her spot.

"Okay - anything else! Just get out." Eleanor and Delia exchanged a look and kept making Ash walk toward the door. "Have fun!"

"Bye!"

The door slammed, leaving Serena and Ash outside.

"Is that your car?" Serena noticed the Jaguar outside. She walked toward it, her high heels clicking.

Ash shrugged. He unlocked it and Serena quickly opened the car door. "What is this?"

He rushed quickly and snatched the shoes box away from her hands.

"Is it for me?" Serena gasped. "It's a limited edition!"

"No, it's not." Ash put the shoes in the back and headed to the front seat.

"Okaay..." Serena got in. "Maybe next time..."

"Come on, Misty. Let's do this."
