Chapter 7 Getting Ready With Joanna

  • Finally, this is the day I am waiting for so eagerly. Today is the 14th and there is going to be Ezra's event which he invited me to and we are going to wear the same color. When Ezra left my house that day I called Joanna to inform her about it and invited her on behalf of Ezra.
  • First, she is reluctant to accept the invitation because she and Ezra's enemy bond but I begged her to come with me and finally she accepted.
  • We decided to get ready at my house because it will be easy and Ezra called me to inform me that he is going to send someone to pick us up.
  • Joanna and I are currently sitting in my room doing a skincare routine before the party and I am still waiting for my dress which is to be delivered by Ezra.
  • " Fay! Do you think Mitch is going to show up today?" Joanna asked, massaging her face with something I don't know. This is one of the reasons for making someone's mood horrible.
  • " Don't you think joey that I don't want to think about anything right now because I am in a good mood!" I grumbled glaring at her.
  • " Don't call me Joey! I hate it." She scowled looking at me.
  • " Same here, don't ruin my mood with that. I hate it too." I scoffed before going to the washroom to wash up and start with my hair for the evening.
  • When I came out of the washroom I saw Joanna examining something from the bag and it looked like a clothing bag! I went towards her and looked from behind her shoulder to check what she was looking at so interestingly.
  • " Umm, what is that! Which got you stars in your eyes?"
  • " Ahh! You scared me!"
  • "Ugh! Stop Joanna, you heard me coming out from the washroom."
  • "No, I didn't. I was busy checking out our outfits which are so amazing." She squealed out loudly before twirling me around.
  • " what? Our outfits! But Ezra said he is going to send only mine." I asked confusingly before opening the bags.
  • " yeah! Maybe he sent it by mistake, who knows?" She rolled her eyes going to the washroom to remove her face mask, grumbling something.
  • I opened the bags in which the clothes are, and I could see two different colored bags sitting on my bag. One is referred to me as for baby girl and the next doesn't have a name. I hurriedly removed everything from the bag and my eyes got bigger with surprise and amazement.
  • There sits a wine-colored body con dress in my hands with crystals all along the dress looking so gorgeous. Tears gathered in my eyes seeing something so beautiful and rich.
  • Truly Ezra has a taste, with a dress there are heels and a clutch of the same color and there is a small box in the bag and it looks like a jewelry box. I have so many things from Ezra, I like jewelry whatever it may be I just kike wearing them.
  • "Oh my goodness! It's so beautiful Fay, he seriously has a taste for everything." Joanna compliments seeing the dress and the chain which has initials E & F in between a heart with diamonds.
  • This is the best gift one can ever give to me. I will wear this all the time. Ugh, I am being so emotional right now. I may give a bear hug when I see Ezra tonight, I don't care if he is the host of the event.
  • " I think we should start getting ready, Fay! We just have two hours to go there." I am pulled out from my thoughts hearing Joanna.
  • She got a black color dress which was looking so good, shimmering in the light. She will look so beautiful wearing it. We started with our hair first to get us ready on time.
  • I seriously don't know that much about makeup skills so Joanna is the best in that department. She completed my hair in just 15 minutes and started on my face using all sorts of beauty products.
  • " Please Joanna, don't make me a clown, I don't want people to laugh at me." I teased her knowing that she is going to rile up.
  • " Seriously Fay! I am better than every makeup artist in the world and tonight you are going to be my star." She seriously needs to tone down her confidence, this girl sometimes thinks too much but she is the best girlfriend one could ever ask for.
  • " I know I know, now please be quick we have to be on time." I can't win over this with her.
  • It took 1 and a half hours to finish everything, my hair is down and straight and my makeup is so light. When I came out of the washroom after getting into the dress, Joanna's mouth was hanging open looking at me. I suddenly feel insecure and my head starts thinking about all possibilities of me looking ugly but seeing my expressions Joanna burst into laughter.
  • " Oh my God, Ha ha ha ha Fay, seriously! Do you think you look ugly?" She didn't stop laughing instead she pulled me to stand in front of the mirror.
  • " You are the most beautiful girl in the world Fay. Don't ever think you are not beautiful. Okay?" She is totally my best friend.
  • "And I hate Ezra but as a matter of fact, he can't control himself after he sees you like and……" I stopped her before she says something embarrassing.
  • " shut up Joanna! We are just friends." I grumbled making a face.
  • " Yeah, I know how you have dreams about him every night." She teased me, making me blush with embarrassment and shyness.
  • " Oh my God Joanna, shut up! If not, I will tape your mouth." I threatened to glare at her.
  • "Okay, don't ruin my makeup. I will just shut up but I am just stating facts." Ugh! This girl is never going to stop.
  • " Thanks, Joe, you are the best. I love you." I said sarcasm dripping through my words.
  • " I love you too, now wait for me to fix my makeup." She fixed her makeup and I heard mom calling from downstairs.
  • "Yes, mama!"
  • " You have a vehicle waiting for you to take you to the party Honey." Mom informed us about the vehicle.
  • " Joanna come let's go, Ezra sent a vehicle to pick us up," I yelled from outside my room.
  • " Yeah, coming, wait, just 2 seconds." She said coming out of my room running trying to wear her shoes.
  • " Woah! Easy girl, don't sprain your ankle. We have to attend the party at any cost." I laughed seeing her expression of horror.
  • " I can manage Fay, let's go." She literally dragged me downstairs and out of the door. I yelled my goodbyes to my mom who sat at the kitchen counter laughing at us.
  • "Bye mama, love you."
  • " Bye Mrs. Moore." We both yelled our goodbyes and we heard, " Bye, take care and enjoy." From mama.
  • " Ahh! Stop dragging me Joanna, we are already outside of my house." I pulled my hand from her hand. Searching for the car which came to pick us.
  • "Fay! Remind me how rich Ezra is?" Joanna said to my confused brain.
  • "What! Why?" I asked.
  • " Because he sent a fudging Limousine!" She yelled, twirling me to face it.
  • " Oh my goodness," I exclaimed, exaggerating Ezra's actions.
  • He just exaggerates sometimes in everything. I already miss him a lot, I haven't seen him since the last time he visited me to apologize other than that we just talked on the phone.
  • The first thing I will do when I see him is to give him a bear hug and a thank you for the dress and chain.
  • I will always cherish him and his things.
