Juanita's POV
"What about this one?" Sophia raises a pink gown.
"No! It's too tight"
"And this?" Kharo raises a green dress
"No Kharo! I don't like that color. I never knew I even have such a dress" I pout.
Right now, we are in my dressing room, trying to figure out the dress I would wear to my date today.
"Melvin didn't say we'll be going to a fancy restaurant okay? It mustn't be a dress. How about this one" I say, pointing a peach crop top and jeans.
"That's good too, but what if he takes you to a fancy restaurant?" Kharo asks.
"He said it's a surprise. I don't think he would take me to a restaurant. Only he and Daniel know about the place"
"I'm sure you'll enjoy this date. So tell me, you really like Melvin right?"Sophia asks with a smile as she gently grab my hands.
I smile, knowing the answer to that question too well. "Maybe I do like him, a little"
"I knew it!"she beams, squeezing my hands in hers
"Now get your ass dressed and get ready for your date."Kharo says as they walk into my bedroom, leaving me alone in the dress room.
Thirty minutes later, I stand in front of my mirror, admiring myself.
Sophia did my Makeup and Kharo my hair.
I can barely recognize myself.
"Wow" I say. "This is amazing."
Kharo had straightened my hair, leaving only the tip curled.
"Yeah, we're the best" Kharo gives Sophia a high five.
"Thank you. You two are the bomb"
Just then, we hear a knock on the door.
"I guess your boyfriend is already here" Sophia grins. I smack her arm
"He's not my boyfriend"
"Not yet" Kharo adds with a wink.
After making sure I look really good, I make my way down the steps, Sophia and Kharo behind me.
I sight Melvin in the living room. Immediately his gaze lands on me, he freezes for a moment, then gives me his signature smirk. I blush.
"Your beauty has left me speechless" he whispers into my ear.
"Oh quit being a poet Melvin" I giggle as I slide my hand into his extended arm.
"You don't look bad yourself"
"Okay Anita, have fun" Sophia and Kharo wave frantically at us as we make our way to the car waiting for us.
"Bye girls" I wave back.
"Come on, Daniel and his date are already waiting in the car" he tells me.
We finally get into the sleek black Land cruiser Prado. I take the seat next to Melvin while Daniel and Sandra were seated at the back.
"You're not driving?" I ask Melvin.
"If I do, how will I be able to give you all my attention?" He asks and I blush, trying to hide my red cheeks behind my hair.
I say my pleasantries to Daniel and Cassandra, all the while, Cassandra looked like she swallowed lime.
She keeps sending me suspicious glares from the rearview mirror.
I wonder what her problem is this Time
The only noise heard in the car was the slow music coming from the radio and whispers from Cassandra and Daniel.
"So tell me Melvin, where are we heading to?" I look at Melvin.
"Worried much? Don't worry, you'll see" he smirks.
