2110 Words
Alex pulls over at a boutique named ' Else world '. " Is this place made for people who act frozen ?". Anna asked because all she could see are very beautiful ball gowns. " You shouldn't judge it because of how it looks from the outside, if you go inside the boutique you're going to love what you will see, because this boutique has all that you like, and it's not that fancy and not that simple. The clothes here are just fantastic and I bet all of them will even fit you ". Alex said smiling as he helps Anna to open the door. " Thanks!!! ". Anna said giving him a pleasant smile as she thanked him for helping her open the car door. Alex also helps her to open the boutique door and immediately Anna steps her foot inside, she left her mouth opened and she started drooling on herself while looking at the entire place with eyes filled with admiration. " Hey!!! honey pie please close your mouth, I don't want people to start mocking you because of your expression ". Alex said as he places his hands at Anna's mouth to cover it. Anna's expression was amusing because the way she kept her eyes wide open and her mouth opened made a smile creep on Alex's handsome face. " Woah!!! this place is amazing, how did you know that the Inside is very beautiful ?". Anna asked Alex while admiring her surroundings. " To be sincere, I do take my formal friends here, but I don't even see the beauty of this place when I took them here, but for now I can see the beauty of this place through you ". " Who did you carry here ?". Anna asked rolling her eyes. " Hmm.... I do carry my.... my former girlfriends here, but I can't compare them to you, and besides, I can't compare them to you ". Alex said as he hugs Anna from behind while placing his hands at her back, but restrained himself from touching her butt. Alex regretted saying that he does carry other girls here, but he couldn't help it since the word had already come out of his mouth. He had heard from his former girlfriends that this place is an old-fashioned boutique. They always love going to a boutique that just a dress that courses fortune. Knowing that Anna always sees beauty in everything, Alex decided to give this boutique a try. " So what type of clothes are you both looking for ". a man asked. He wore a black top and a pair of blue jeans. " We would love to have a simple dressing, something that's isn't too extravagant ". Anna said while smiling at the young man. " You are going to look so beautiful in any cloth you wear!!!. Please follow me ". The man said as he complimented Anna, causing Anna's smile to grow wider. " Please can you reduce your smile, I don't like it when you smile at other guys, it makes me feel jealous ". " Woah!!! you are already admitting that you feel jealous, you are something else ". Anna said as she pokes Alex's cheeks. " Please don't laugh at me for feeling jealous, I need to be observant of my surroundings, I can't take the risk of a fight with someone else, because of something that belongs to me ". ' Smile '. The young man took them to a room filled with clothes meant for unisex. The clothes were really beautiful, so Anna ended up grabbing more than she expected. " Where can I try it ?". Anna asked excitedly. " You can go to the dressing room over there ". The young man said sounding like a girl. " Thanks!! ". Anna said and ran to the dressing room excited. " Your girlfriend is special, most couples that I have attended to always post me around, to find what will bring their backside, what exposes their breast and rubbish request, but your girlfriend didn't even give me any stress, and if you don't mind me bugging in, can you please do me a favor ". Alex became confused by the last statement the man-made. He's aware that Anna didn't stress the man in any way, but what he doesn't understand is the man who was asking for a favor while smiling. A frown appeared on Alex's face, as he stares at the man with deadly eyes. " Hey!!! Please don't kill me with those looks, I only wanted you to do me a simple favor ". " What do you want ". Alex asks with a hoarse voice. " Chill bro!!! I only want you to do marry this girl, she's a keeper, and just by the look of things, she will make a good wife, and of course a good mother ". The young guy said as he raises his hands while explaining the favor he wanted Alex to do for him. " Ohh I thought you wanted to request for something else ". Alex said smiling as he made sure that the words the guy told him kept repeating in his ear. He thought that the guy wanted to request the impossible. ' If this guy spills dirty words from his mouth like saying I should make way for him to get Anna '. but when he opened his mouth to say the opposite of what I had expected, I couldn't help but smile at this stranger's request. He didn't make his request compulsory but I will make sure that his request will be granted. " Hey bro!!! can you please go inside and help your girlfriend out, she will be very grateful if you help her to dress ". Alex didn't know if he should protests or just go inside the dressing room. " Bro!!! she's your babe and not mine, but if you want me to go inside and help her, then I won't resist ". As Alex heard what the guy said, he quickly walks inside the dressing room, not sparing a glance at the young man beside him. Alex entered the dressing room and freeze immediately as he saw Anna. " You are so beautiful ". Alex said as he placed his hands on her waist. " Do you like the cloth, does it fit me ?". She asked while staring at the floor. " Yeah!!! I don't like the cloth ". " What!!! you don't like the cloth, does it look that bad ?". she asked while trying to use the cloth to cover her already covered body. " Babe I didn't mean whatever your mind is thinking right now, because I don't like it I love it, and I can't use the word love in place of like ". Alex said smiling while his dimples were all in place, and the way his lips have curve into a smile is seducing. " Anna I can I feel the dress on your body, I wouldn't go the extra mile ". Alex said while swaying Anna's body. Anna raises her head and stares at Alex without saying anything. Alex took it as a Yes because she didn't utter any words from her mouth. Alex placed his hands at her waist, and slowly move them to her hips and downwards. He did it so slow and gentle, making sure he can feel her perfect curves. Anna wore a short white skirt, with a black crop top. She wore a black snicker, that has a white butterfly design attached to it. Anna had already parked her hair into a neat ponytail. The skirt she wore wasn't long and neither was it short. Her black shirt exposes her deep belly button, making her look more affordable. " You have beautiful curves ". Alex whisper in Anna's ear. "These clothes add to your beauty, but in all, you are naturally beautiful and I can't wait for the day that we both will just leave our lives not getting worried about anything, and just live like if we are the only one in the planet ". Anna turned her back to face Alex. She stares at him with a smile on her face, before hugging him. " Thanks for everything ". Anna said. She can see clearly that Alex who used to be her boss, but is now her boyfriend and has fallen deeply for her. They both left the boutique and headed to the movies. Alex kept on glancing at Anna anytime he had the chance to. " So what kind of movie do you want to watch ?". Anna asked Alex smiling. " Anyone, as long as you are the one who is picking the movie ". Alex replied. " Thanks!!!!! I will love to watch hmm...., why don't we watch a romance movie ". Anna exclaims while using her eyes to scan the posters on the wall. " Let's watch this one !!" Anna said as she pointed at a movie poster, which movie title is ' LIFE IN A YEAR '. " Are you sure that this is what you want to watch ?". Alex asked raising his brow. " Yeah let's watch this movie, it will be interesting ". Anna said as she drags Alex to the place they do buy tickets. Anna bought two tickets with the money in her purse. She didn't allow Alex to pay for the ticket because she still wants to spend it on him. They both sat beside each other with a bowl of popcorn in their hands. The movie started by showing a boy's face who looks so familiar to Anna's eyes. She kept on recalling where she had seen that face from but she couldn't remember. The movie was quite funny at the starting when the boy and his friends throw a stone at a huge mannose. The movie was about a girl who had pink hair. She was slim, fair, and tall. While the boy seems to look like a black American. The boy kept on forcing the girl to go on a date with him, to which the girl agreed after much pleading. They kept on going out every time until the day the boy had to enter the girl's house. Anna was just smiling at herself because she knows that something is going to happen, which is no other than kissing. Immediately the boy started kissing the girl, Anna filled her hands with popcorn from the popcorn cup. " I know that this is going to happen ". Anna said as she pats Alex on his lap without even staring at him. ' Please stop '. the pink hair girl said while letting go of the boy's lips. The boy refuses to go and he kept on yelling asking the reason why the girl wants him to leave. ' No, I'm not going to go because I love you '. the boy said while placing his hands on his hair. The girl who had already left the boy's presence came close to him with teary eyes, as she removes her hair from her head. Anna was so surprised that it wasn't her real hair. She thought it was her hair from the beginning of the movie. ' Do you still love me now!!! '. she asked. ' I have just a year to leave and after that, I am done '. The lady said causing tears to fall from Anna's eyes. Anna hugged the popcorn so hard as if she wants to crush it. The girl was suffering from cancer, and she had just a year to leave. The boy took her to his parents but his Dad rejected the girl just because he said he didn't see any future in the girl. Anna's blood was boiling as she heard what the man said, but when she saw that the boy kept on loving the girl unconditionally despite her illness. At the end of the movie, the girl helps the boy to achieve his dream, and not the dream of his father, who wants his son to attend Harvard University. The girl dies at the end of the movie, which was heartbreaking. Just after she had finally found what true love is, and how it feels like to be loved, she dies and left her lover alone. ' Hold on, I still love you. Come back, I still need you. Let me take your hands, I'll make it right. I swear to love you all my life. Hold on I still need you '.
