Enisa's Pov I was too speechless to say a word, such audacity. All of a sudden I felt my blood boil with anger. It is not enough that she has already ruined my life! She can insult me too? I was hurt, I was already getting used to this but hearing those words come from her really damaged the little ego I had left. I stared at father, and as usual he didn't say anything. All of a sudden I felt defeated. My feelings here, didn't matter and nothing was going to change that. I turned around to leave, my leg feeling weightless and dragging along while I walked, with the silence still hovering around, standing there just made me feel less of myself. "wait" l heard a voice said from behind me and I came to a halt, I turned and my eyes met the sinister gaze of lris. Those green eyes under those long lashes gave me a killer look, she shot her brows and sighed. " If it's some clothes you need then there is no problem," l can lend you some of my clothes they are old but way more better than any clothes you've ever had, they will be perfect." Iris said with a smirk and I gave her a deadly stare if looks could kill , the glare I gave her was enough to send her six feet under the ground. I tried to control the anger that was whelming up in me and my hands clenched into a fist. I was waiting for father to object to this. "What a wonderful idea Iris why didn't I think of that." Father said and my jaw dropped in shock, a sly grin played across Iris lips. "Father you agree to this ? I asked trying not to betray my emotions my mouth was quivering as the words slipped out of my lips. " I don't see any reason why he shouldn't." Vedica said looking pleased, I shut my eyes and smacked my lips in anguish, and then it dawned on me that I was alone in this, nothing I say really matters. Taking a deep breath I turned around and walked away. I could hear them laugh but I didn't look back, I increased my pace, I was not going to let them jeer on my nerves. I walked straight to my room and slammed the door. I couldn't hold the tears that had gathered in my eyes any longer so I just let them flow. I picked up a piece of mirror from the floor, it was the only thing that reflected who I really was. I stared at the reflection of myself in the mirror, my hair was quite untidy but that didn't stop it from glowing. It was long , thick and very dark in colour. Unlike the rest of my family who had brown coloured hair. I was different I inherited my dark coloured hair from my mother. One of the prominent features I had were my dark blue eyes hidden under thick black eye lashes. Father used to say they made me look cute but that was before Iris came into our lives. Ever since then everything never remained the same. Iris got all the attention and I got... nothing. I could hear voices coming from outside. It kept intruding my thoughts and causing a whirlwind. I quickly wiped my tears and got up to go and check what was going on. I was surprised to meet iris and her mother already dressed in expensive clothes. They were set to go to the capitals already! they really must be excited for the shopping. A car was already packed Infront of the mansion to convey them. I sighed and turned around to go back inside....."Enisa! Iris called and a cold sensation ran through my body, her voice causes me to irk. "What now! I muttered under my breath as I turned to look at her. "On a second thought you are coming along with us to the capitals," she said pouting her lips and I just stood there staring at her sheepishly. What could have made her changed her mind so soon. "Why should she come along Iris." Vedica asked obviously surprised by Iris sudden change of mind. "She could prove to be useful by carrying our shopping bags when we are shopping." Iris said grinning, I just felt like walking up to her and giving her a dirty slap. There are countless maids in the pack house, but she chose me. She wanted to treat me like a servant in front of everyone. I shifted my gaze to father and he gave me a go ahead look, l sighed heavily and reluctantly walked up to the car which was already packed few meters away, they were already in the car sitted when I got in and sat. I marvelled at the opportunity of a life time for a while, it was a very exquisite car. This was my first time getting in a very expensive car, I have never entered one before. Iris sat as far away from me as possible but l cared less. I feasted my eyes on the beautiful cities we passed by to get to the capitals. I took in every features, it was my first time going anywhere and probably my last. ........... I stood quivering under the weight of the shopping bags. My face struggling to get out of the suffocating smell of new clothes. Iris kept buying so much clothes and jewelries, then she would hand them over to me to hold. She then let's me put them in the car and come back to carry more shopping bags. She bought so much clothes, she would put on a dress and ask her mother how it looked on her and Vedica would say.... "It is very beautiful Iris, it's fits you well take it." I rolled my eyes consecutively, none of those clothes really did fit her but Vedica was too blinded by her own shopping she didn't check out the dresses Iris kept showing her. They kept doing this and couldn't make a particular choice so they just bought everything. I watched as they shopped for clothes for themselves and shunned me. It was like I didn't even exist. My eyes roamed around the room, just then my gaze caught something. It was glittering, it was at the extreme end of the clothes section in the mall so Iris couldn't have seen it yet. The sight of it really got my attention, as if under a trance I slowly walked up to where the dress was and as if every moment mattered I took my time scrutinizing the dress, as every step I took bought me closer to it . On getting to where the dress was displayed nicely on the shelve, I took it in my hands, it was silky and designed with diamond stones. It looked very elegant and not expensive even though I knew it was. I stood admiring it for a while, then decided to try it on. I went into the dressing room just by the corner and came out to take a look at my self using the dressing mirror. A group of girls who were chatting and passing by stopped and started gawking at the dress. "Wow it is beautiful , one of them said admiring the dress. "I want one too, is it customize because it's fits her perfectly." Another girl said and they all walked away talking about the dress. I couldn't help but commend on my good taste for fashion. I was royalty I was suppose to have a good taste...but I wasn't treated like one. I stood for a while admiring myself in the mirror. I rarely got chances like this so I took my time, taking in all my features. I had become quite slim but I had a sexy figure, and that made the dress fit me perfectly as if it was made for me. My complexion was still bright and my jaw line were perfect. My blue dark eyes hidden under thick long lashes were siren in shape, all complimented with pink rosy full lips. I went back into the dressing room to change back into my own clothes. I came out looking like my old self and sighed as I looked at the dress one last time before placing it back in the shelve. "Do you like it? A deep voice from behind me asked. All of a sudden I perceived a overwhelming scent, the presence of this person had a powerful aura and I couldn't help but turn around to see who it was. My gaze fell on a man with black curly hair, thick eye brows, black eyes , a lustrous lip and a stunning masculine figure. Immediately I set my eyes on him I couldn't take it off, good lord he was so handsome. His clothes looked very expensive and I had to admit he had this striking demeanor. I didn't realize I was drooling until he shook me slightly out of my world. " Are you okay?He asked and I couldn't utter a word, suddenly I had lost my voice. "Do you like the dress?He asked staring at me deeply not taking his gaze off me, I couldn't say a thing, his voice was like a magnet. How come a stranger was having this kind of effect on me. He had everything a lady could ask for in a man. All of a sudden I snapped out of my world, "ye...yes I do like the dress" I said almost in a whisper darting my eyes. I dare not look him in the eye after what just happened, I won't be able to take my eyes off if I looked at him, feeling relief that I had found my voice I took some step backwards I could feel his breath on me he was this close to making me go numb. He stared at the dress , then at me, he rummage through the dresses and selected another dress with the same design but different colour, the dress I had picked was black, but he picked a blue coloured dress . " This would look good on you it matches your eyes" he said and I was too flattered to utter a word, I felt butterflies in my stomach. " Come with me " he said, his voice traced with power and he started walking away. I was reluctant but followed him and we ended up at the checkout out, I watched as the ladies in the checkout were drooling at him, he took the dress from me, and without saying a word he paid for it. I was dumbfounded by his actions, no one has ever been this nice to me. I turned to thank him but he was already gone. My eyes roamed around the room in search of him, but he was no where to be found. "But he was right here , where did he go? I didn't even get a chance to thank him for his kind gesture. A lady handed the dress over to me in a shopping bag and just then ..... "Enisa !! My stepmother called. Oh no I am in big trouble.
