Chapter 56 - She Is Cherry Blossoms Dressed In Snow
Meanwhile, April was at home blissfully unaware of the mayhem that had just occurred in Deans office. She was lounging on her sofa reading when she had received a call from Jace that a package had arrived at the front reception desk for her.
No one really knew where she lived and she hadnt ordered anything so April was slightly sceptical but she set down her book and put on her black converse and then left her condo to go down to see Jace at the front reception desk.
After she exited the lift she noticed a small white paper bag sitting on the front desk. She smiled at Jace and approached the desk, "Hey Jace, thanks for ringing me to let me know I had a package."
Jace beamed at April and responded, "No problem, I am sorry I couldn't bring it up to you. I can't leave my desk." Jace answered apologetically before he picked up the paper bag and handed it to April courteously.
"No worries and thank you." April smiled and nodded before she walked back to the lift. Inside the lift, she pressed the button for her floor and glanced at the bag in her hand. It was from a luxury branded store.
Bing
Getting out of the lift she took out her keys and went inside her condo. She could hear her phone ringing and ringing so she quickly took off her converse and she closed the door making her way towards her phone. As it lit up it showed Micheal's name and she genuinely smiled as she answered.
"Hey, you better be calling me to confirm the time for tonight or else." She laughed as she teased him and set down the white paper bag onto her coffee table as she sat down on her sofa.
"Hey sweetie, first of all, why aren't you getting ready? Two did you get my gift for tonight? No matter what you have to wear it." Michael's usual cheerful voice came through her phone.
April rolled her eyes, "It won't take long to get ready, it is just dinner with friends."
Micheal chuckled, "You are going somewhere special so go get a shower, do your hair and makeup and then wear what's in the bag! Wear it, no matter what cause your bestie chose it."
April smiled, "Okay bestie." She laughed lightly, "I will put in a little effort then for you."
"That's all I ask, now go," Micheal ordered before hanging up the phone.
April smiled and stared at her phone, she didn't realise she had someone who cared to go out and get her an outfit.
She had once dreamed of a partner that would wake her up with a good morning, to ask if she ate or if she had an umbrella when it rained, for them to ask her how was your day? And to say good night too.
She smiled at the bag, at least she had a friend kind enough to think of the things she didn't. So with a renewed spring in her step, she got up and brought the bag with her towards her bedroom. She set the bag on her bed before taking her phone to the bathroom.
Putting on some music she turned on the shower and she hummed along as she waited for the water to heat up. She then stripped off and got under the water, she washed and exfoliated and stood under the water just enjoying the warm water run over her body.
The music ended and she got out of the shower, wrapping a towel around her hair she dried her body then put on a cotton dressing gown. After choosing another few songs of her playlist she got out the hairdryer and dried her hair.
Next was her makeup, she lightly applied make-up, Mac Sin lipstick and her signature winged eyeliner. Happy with her look she grabbed her phone and walked towards the bed.
She opened the white paper gift bag and saw a white lace dress inside, it was very beautiful and suited her pale skin tone and ebony wavy hair. She had left her hair down in loose waves earlier. She now took the dress and went to the closet to change. She put on her underwear and then the dress, the fit was perfect. She then paired it with a red pair of louboutins, she put them on and took out a matching red leather bag.
Knock Knock
She heard the door and her eyebrows furrowed, wasn't she meeting everyone at seven?
She fixed her hair and she quickly glanced in the mirror, Micheal had really chosen the perfect dress for her. It clung to her body perfectly. Happy she walked to the door and shouted, "Coming."
Outside the door, Dean leaned against the door frame, he had fixed his hair and kept an eye on the time for the past hour waiting to see her, his angel. Tonight he hoped her walls would come down. He was willing to take them down brick by brick if he had to. He heard her voice shout and he smiled as he fixed his styled hair again and waited patiently.
She opened the door and beamed up at him, she was uniquely sweet and kind and it showed through her eyes when she smiled, her red lips teased him and could make him easily lose his rationality. He gazed at her as she said something and then disappeared back into her condo. He watched as she moved about inside.
April's silky hair flowed down like waterfalls showing it's attitude... Her captivating eyes shone brighter than the brightest stars in the night to light the path to his heart which is priceless... Her seashells curved ears waiting for some loving whispers... Her curved nose mocking the moon in the dark... Her marshmallow like cheeks waiting to be teased... Her mesmerizing strawberry lips taunted the devil himself... Her neck that is longing to be caressed and kissed... Her rainbow curved waist makes the rainbow after a storm jealous... He heard her heavenly footsteps that bloom the path to his heart. To put it simply... She is cherry blossoms dressed in snow, heart touching and lovely.
