Getting over him

I hear movements from outside my room, then a knock on my door. I don’t answer and the door creaks open, Evia, you need to eat something. You’ve been locked up in your room for weeks. I still don’t give any response, okay! That’s it she shouts. Evia James,get your ass out of this bed right now, you won’t drown yourself in depression because that dimwit cheated on you , or do you want me to call your mom? That was enough for me to get up. Okay okay, I raise my hand in surrender, I’ll get up. And take a shower, you stink she adds. I roll my eyes and walk to the bathroom. Looking at myself I looked like death, I lost so much weight in a week cause I barely ate. I didn’t want Max to get the satisfaction and see me looking down like this. Yes Max is my boyfriend, or was my boyfriend till I found him cheating on me with one of my so called friends. Remembering everything I still question myself. Am I good enough? Or am I not pretty enough? A lone tear fell from my eye. Thinking about it was exhausting and I started to get a headache. I decided to stop thinking and take a hot bath. I felt a lot better after the bath, I went down to get breakfast. Betty made me pancakes my favorite and I it made me happy a little, I ate as much as I could but couldn’t eat so much. I decided to stay in for today, I’d probably resume work in a day or two. I sit in the living room bored out of my mind and decided to watch a movie, just then Betty walks in with this suspicious smirk on her face, I immediately knew she was up to no good. You can’t tell me you’re going to sit at home and watch tv all day after getting up from your bed, she said with her hands on her waist and her eyebrow raised. Well, I have nothing better to do, I replied and regretted almost immediately it came out of my mouth. She smirked and shrieked okay then, girls day out. We’ll go out shopping and then have a spa date. Well, the spa didn’t sound so bad I thought. I gave in and agreed to go with her. I decided to go with a simple white crop-top and paired with black combat pants and my fav pair of sneakers, with sunglasses cause I felt I still looked like I’ve been crying a lot. I stepped down to see a very excited Betty waiting for me. You clean up nice she adds, you don’t look so bad yourself she tells me, you don’t look so bad yourself I bicker back with a smile. Betty is the closest friend I’ve had in forever, she could easily pass as my sister. We’ve always been so close since we were little. We went to the same schools and have never been separated. Except with what we wanted to do as carriers. I’ve always been into fashion and she always wanted to be a chef and we went along with what we wanted to do with our lives, only I have to prepare to take over my dads jewelry company and I’ve been training for that ever since I could remember. But that doesn’t stop me from doing the things I love. We went shopping first, Betty claims I need a complete makeover and that’ll help me feel better about my current situation. We get to the mall and enter the first shop we come across. Hello, I’m grace and welcome to Everlane she said with a warm smile. You can check around for what you like and call my attention if you need my help. Thank you I replied, I couldn’t help but smile at her. Betty took the luxury to pick out a lot of dresses and some really short ones I know I’m definitely never wearing. Here you go little lady, Betty says as she drops about 10 dresses in my arms and turns to find more. Try those on, need to see which fits best she tells me as she walks away. I stand there stupefied but walk to the changing room regardless. The first dress I pick up catches my attention. It’s a black dress that stops just above me knees, the it fits my whole body and brought out the little curve I didn’t even know I had. It has spaghetti straps and a slit right up my upper thigh with a bow on it. I absolutely fell in love with it but I felt a bit insecure about showing a lot of skin. I stepped out to find Betty and Grace waiting for me and they just stood looking at me. Is something on my face? Do I look that bad? I thought to myself as I panicked. Omg girl you look wow Betty said. Grace finally spoke you look really amazing, it’s like the dress was made for you . Don’t you guys think it’s a bit much? I asked. It’s perfect! they both exclaimed. Okay okay you don’t have to shout about it I said jokingly. I tried on a few more dresses for them and we ended up with about 15 dresses and we ended up with $30000. Can’t remember the last time I shopped this much. I still have the card my dad gave to me so I used it to pay for the clothes even though Betty wanted to foot the bill. We said my goodbyes to Grace then we left. Next Betty drags me into Victoria secret, she says this one is on her. She bought alot of lingerie I didn’t even think was necessary then she tells me wearing sexy underwear adds to a woman’s confidence and we left but not before she made me model them for her. Then we went to the spa, got waxed and got massages, I have to say I really needed that. And I feel so much more relaxed. We finally got home after a long day. Get prepared we’re going out by 9 Betty tells me, where are we going? I ask, that’s for me to know and you to find out she replies and leaves me in a confused state in my room. I know there’s no getting out of this one so I go to rest since it’s just past 4, then my phone rings and it’s my mom, I’ve really missed speaking to her but I’ve been actively trying to avoid her since the breakup. I decided to pick up. Hey baby, I heard my mothers soothing voice over the phone, hey mummy I reply. How’ve you been holding up? Concern evident in her voice, I’m fine mom, I feel much better. Glad to hear it, and I don’t want you feeling less of yourself because of this, yes mummy I reply, we spend 30mins catching up and I even got to speak to my dad. I decided to nap a little since I still have time to get ready. I wake up at 6:30 and decide to take a shower, getting out of the bathroom I spot Betty in my room, what are you doing here I ask her? Helping you my dear friend pick a dress she tells me smiling. I roll my eyes and walk to the vanity to blow dry my hair. She sets the black dress from earlier on my bed and picks a set of black lingerie. You do know I can pick my own clothes I complain. Yes, but I don’t trust you. Where are we even going? I ask again. You’ll know when we get there babes, quit being so curious and just go with it she replies, I decided to drop it know I won’t get hints from her. I did my make up very simple and I got a new hair cut today so it gave me a new look. Put on my dress and and a black stilettos to match stepped out, only to earn a whistle from Betty, damn girl you look so good. I blushed a little not knowing how to handle compliments and trust me she looks really good herself. It was a little past 9 at the time, you ready? She asked me. Yeah I just need to get my purse I reply and rushed in to get my purse. The we went out. We get into her car and she drove. On getting to the location I realized she took me to a club. How didn’t I see this one coming?
