ANASTASIA'S POV ______________________ It's a Sunday today and my head is spinning after a long horrible 7 hours of going round the whole universe in search of the perfect tailored attire to wear for the auction we finally made a stop at a burger shop. Won't you order even a treat " a loud call from behind me caused me to Yelp. Holy s**t ! I cursed and held my chest frantically to show how terrified I was. Sorry I scared you " laughed Jane. Oh my gosh Jane that was a very planned fright wasn't it.... " I said and playfully smacked her shoulder. So change of subject " Jane said ,Anna what are we going to do about the whole dress thing . I don't know I don't give a f ...care " I replied honestly . Anna tell me something , you don't want to do the auction do you ? Jane stated gently holding my hand In hers. Of course I don't, it Kiela's gig and that sly chick girl trapped me here and Jane despite you being my seamstress for the past 3 years you pretty well know how much I hate this job. it's like one way or the other I am going to sell myself to the devil and it sends chills up my spine " I stated looking over my shoulder as if mentioning the devil's name paused time. Anna don't refer to it as selling your soul " Jane Said. My phone rang and I looked at it then back at Jane and she smiled brightly then getting the hint she quaked ' Yes of course privacy ' I smiled and walked past her towards the counter. Hello' I picked the call . Anna what a pleasure to be speaking to you am Jackson Hewitt Roce , who was expecting a call from you yesternight . Holy s**t Jack I swear It totally slipped my mind , Am really sorry ! I just knew Jack only address me formally when he's upset. I'll make it up to you ' ok I told him. When !?... more like a statement I suppose. Don't be absurd " I tried to joke. Am not being absurded Anna ... That was a question and a question needs an answer " Jack said sounding a little bit too upset. Of course he's very upset my brain scolded me profusely. Jack I promise I'll make it up to you tomorrow ok " See you later... I said ending the call. I was just too busy to realize I promised to do something *huh* Anna what's up ? Jane asked me looking worried. Am fine am just surprised a 35 year old famous rich seamstress is sitting in an ordinary burger shop " I tried to joke " That's not funny Anna , she said laughing slightly. Yh awful joke , I said laughing myself. Hey guys ! Yolanda called out bouncing joyful as of she has won a lottery. Anna ! ta-da ... Yolan said pulling a jacked up in a zip bag. What the hell is that ? " Jane raised a brow frantically asking the question I had in mind. Oh silly me, this is a dress ! Yolanda kept rumbling and unzipping the bag. She pulled a white mermaid Swarovski crystal. Holy s**t ! was all I could process in my thoughts , cause that dress is very expensive "Worth million to be precise" Uh! erhhh! So what's up with the dress ? I asked looking akwardly at the dress. Anna this is your dress ' Mi chacha" Yolanda said punching my shoulder playfully. No you didn't , Infact you shouldn't have "I protested and added What no ...No..No I just can't accept such an expensive gift , this is like 10 times my salary even yours " I can't accept it. Anna don't be absurd .. Yolanda tried to convince me. Ok Give me 3 logical reasons why you want me to accept this dress . Well because one ; you need it and two ; your aunt will deduct a huge sum from your salary and most importantly Liam needs that money for his camp and you need the money for school and this dress here mi Cha is the key to the money you see " Yolanda stated true fact and I knew she was right . Fine am taking the dress but don't think I won't find out how you got the dress " I agreed and took the dress. The day is finally here I can't believe am going to replace Kiela that girl is such a funny b***h " how much I hate her! . Sorry guys looks like I haven't introduced myself yet , well am Anastasia Lee Willoughby as you already know. Am 20 and a student for now will be graduating prior next 2 months . Am applying for a nursing decree , well I initially wanted to become an air hostess but seems life has an interesting whole different plan. California was where my parents and I lived and that's where they died "ironic isn't it ! So my parents died in a car crash "It was so horrific , I almost every day have nightmares about that day . But am sure you wondering how I ended up with this crappy job. Well after my aunt became our gaudian since I was only 11 ,she had all the Rights to tell me what to do. Long story short Liam broke his leg frantically and at that time I was only sixteen and I needed money for his treatment so I begged my aunt and we made a mutual agreement that when I turn eighteen I would have to work for her 4 years prior before I can go scout free. I know it was a ridiculous idea but at that time I wasn't thinking in terms of anything I was just thinking as a sister who desperately needed help to save her brother's life. Liam knows nothing about the agreement and I'll like to keep it that way . So that's pretty much about me . Hey Anna errh ... Yolanda called out snapping me out of day dream. Anna you ok ? cause you don't look shark enough for the guys to start drooling ... Yolanda stated smiling and placing her hand on my shoulder giving me a tight warm squeeze. Everything's gonna turn out well, okay !!! Yolanda said with shivering hands on my shoulder drawing my attention to her when I realized a tear drop fell from her eye and it's rolling down her cheek. Yolanda what's wrong ? I asked her but before I could get an answer we were interrupted by my aunt . Anna ! Are you not dressed yet ? Aunt am getting dressed my dress is over there pre ironed four times and perfectly tailored" I said to my aunt showing her and Yolanda the dress am going to wear. Anna where's the dress I gave you " Yolanda asked me or more of a statement. Yolan I told you till I'm done with my investigation I will not wear that dress it's too expensive for my liking . What do you mean by 'tooo much for your liking... Anna you are going to wear that dress whether you prefer it or not " Yolanda stated drashing and going through my closet making a mess . Yolanda stop that , what's going on you know you can tell me anything , I'll understand right ...! I said pulling Yolanda who is vigorously shivering literally shaking. I hugged her and she was crying and mumring "Please Anna you have to wear that dress am begging you, please! please! . Yolanda have to you taken your shot , I asked Yolanda who looks like she's about to have an attack . Yolan where's it " I asked. B...agg " She managed to say. Bag I repeated hysterically and began searching for her bag and I finally found it on the sofa . Here I said injecting the medicine in her neck . ANNA..! she screamed my name squeezing my hand frantically , please wear the dress "she whispered in my ears and finally closed her eyes. Yolanda was a drug addict for two years and went clean for six months now and she's also a bipolar patient , and anything she's out of character I just have to inject that medicine in her to keep her on track . I don't know why she was so hysteric moments ago but I know for sure something happened cause she's done things out of character before but she's never cried or panicked or asked me to wear a dress before , I know there are always first times for everything but am telling you there's something about this dress I don't understand , it's as if the dress is telling me something and am meant to wear that dress. HEY Anna ! How many times do I have to tell you to get dressed " My aunt yelled at me bringing me out of day dream or should I say night dream cause it's 6:30 already pm to be precise. Am getting dressed " I yelled in anger . And yes Anna before you come down please take care of that " my aunt pointed to the floor where Yolanda was unconscious and she left. I was able to get Yolanda in bed and covered her with the blankets. I immediately got ready doing my makeup and everything , it's left with only my dress 'I mean the dress that Yolanda gave me or begged me too wear'. I put on the dress but I got some help from the organizes because the dress was heavy and had a very fragile texture. Everyone complimented me , others in the room just asked me where I bought the dress and I answered truthfully " I don't know where the dress was bought!. a ANNA are you not ready yet " My aunt screamed downstairs . Oh mama mi ah ! Anna did you steal that dress " My aunt laughed. No aunt am not like Kiela ' I also laughed along . Well it's 6:59 be down by 7:5 pm , do you get that " She said before walking outside. Whatever ' I huffed as a reply . Two minutes more to go downstairs " Are you nervous Anna ? Noo... I guess , like I think am getting used to this kinda lifestyle , so Lord am nervous" I answered Lordicia honestly over the phone. Talk to you later Lord " Yeah ! Anna good luck , bye and see you later' Lordicia said and ended the call. come down right now! you just have one minute to come down Anna"my aunt said screaming on top of her lungs . I'm coming out just a minute" I yelled back. ~ AT THE EVENT ~ good evening ladies and gentlemen you all know who I am , the host of the soriety ball "Mr. charms" on every full moon night Mr. Charms 'which is me ' bring you the most beautiful and entizing young girls who volunteer to go on a date with one of you to help with this charity. SO NOW LET THE AUCTIONS BEGIN. Let's take the first bid .... 200,000 million, going once,twice,7.5million, ,85million , 8.7 million .... the prices kept on rising and Ana was acared to go on date with some perverted guy or old man. While the prices kept going up. I mean she's been doing this all her life she just sometimes felt pressurized , it wasn't easy for Anna at all especially when she knew this very well that the whole auction was not in the name of charity but rather her aunty and the sponsors embezzle the money and give 10 percent to charity . She knew they were slimy thiefs. MEAN WHILE~ So what's going on now ? Lucius asked Evans over the phone , driving over 200 speed rate . Well boss they are still auctioning per the moment now , but no one has bidded the highest value yet , boss it's a though competition there seems like everyone is interested in dating her " Evans quipped stortly . Evans , should I take that as a joke or a death wish " Lucius quaked furiously. Boss you are almost there , just a few more turns " Evans tried to clear the atmosphere with little enthusiasm . ~~ The prices were coming and increase wonderfully . Anna's heart was beating on a rapid speed , she was feeling dizzy , she was sweating profusely and her make up was cleaning up , all she could think of was for it all to end soon. Anna closed her eyes when she saw an ogling old man rise from his seat yelling 100 million . 100 million !!! Charms yelled and added 100 million going ONCE ! - TWICE ! And that was the very moment Lucius decided it was time for him to auction. 500 million and a new house to cater for the children This left the audience stunned as well as Anna. She just couldn't believe it , 500 million and a house .... she was sure it was some of the perverted old men who have lived their lives and were ready to give all their money to go on a date with a young girl like her for just three hours . Anna didn't want to open her eyes to see an ugly old man but she just couldn't help but see who was ready to waste over 500 million on her "as the saying goes curiosity kills the cat indeed" She just had to open her eyes the bright spot light fell on only a black shadow, she couldn't see who this stranger is ,but there was one thing she knew that this rich guy is no old man ... but the question is who is he ? The auctioneer finally said the word and that's where the words kept ringing in her ears ... S! O! L! D! .. SOLD!!!
