Perfectly Imperfect

Chapter 27

"She didn't show up, how comes?" I leaned back on my office chair asking Felipe.
"I told you that woman is a smart one. She's not easy to get," he spoke quite angrily.
"Felipe, she managed to escape this time but who knows what might happen next? If we didn't have her yesterday, we will tomorrow."

For sure.

I checked my time again before I heard footsteps coming down the stairs.
And there came an angel.
She stood infront at the edge of the stairs and unconsciously, I got up, took a few steps and stopped.
"What do you think?" She asked nervously but my eyes stuck on her angelic face.

Her makeup was light, not very noticeable, hair put in large curles falling on her chest, her lips colored in matte pink lipstick and eyes popped out even more beautifully.
I was mesmerized.

My gaze went down to her bare shoulders, down to the free fabric from above her breasts to below them,then to her thin waist where a white dress belt rested perfectly.
Down to her huge wide hips that gave the dress its beauty which wrapped perfectly around her thighs down her knees.

This dress was made for her.

Then her fair smooth legs exposed and down.....

Oh oh.

"Somethings are missing," I chuckled and her smiled dropped.

She had no shoes but I've got that covered.

"I don't own any heels except you want for me to wear nikes or canvass....," she was planning to go on and on but I just laughed.
"I'll be right back," jogging to my car, I brought the white heels from my car. Claire was sure that Camilla was going to have a white belt on her waist so she advised to get these shoes for her.

The power of being a woman.

I rushed and there she was sitted on the couch where I sat.
"Here. Not too long so you can manage," I knelt down and grabbed her leg but she kinda insisted.
When I looked up at her she looked nervous.
"You can do it," after reassuring her, I proceeded to wear her tge shoes.
"I feel like Cinderella," she laughed.

"Ofcourse. You're my Cinderella but there are no wicked step sisters or a step mother is there?"
We all laughed including Nana.
Grabbing her hand, I helped her up and she straightened her dress.
"One more thing," reaching into my pockets, she looked confused until she saw a jewelry box.

When I opened it, she was shocked.

"Carlos. I can't accept this," she pushed it back to me.
"Whether it's platinum, titanium, gold or Diamond, I'll give you everything I can Maria," her hazel eyes turned moist as I took the diamond necklace from the box, swept her hair from behind and wore it on her.

When I stood in front of her, the tears were on the bridge of falling so I grabbed both her hands and kissed them.
She chuckled at my small gesture.

"You're priceless Maria that's why no matter how expensive this is, you're infinite. Whether you believe it or not, I think of you more than you'll ever know and I love you more than the words can explain Maria and I know this will be true forever because there's no one I would ever love the way I love you." I said and tears slipped out.
