The important visitor

1003 Words
Luna's POV After some minutes, he stood up from his chair and put on his suit jacket which was hung carefully on his chair. "It's time to leave" He announced. I quickly got up from the sofa and straightened my dress - A pink flay gown which I had selected from one of those clothes that Kate had given to me yesterday. Who would ever believe that I'm a princess? Just then, Mark's phone which was lying carelessly on the table rang. He picked up the call and took some steps away from where I stood. He said some words into the phone, I couldn't hear his conversations properly but he looked really happy discussing with whomever it was. I guess it must be one of those his numerous lovers. He finally ended the call and trodded back to where I stood; "Change of plans. After the shopping, I will be having dinner with a very good friend of mine" Mark explained. Dinner? With his friend? That sounded nice. I nooded positively. He pushed open the door and walked out and I followed suit. We got to the parking lot and got into the car. His driver wasn't around, maybe he had asked him not to come. He ignited the car's engine and zoomed off. The car went silent as the cool music played in the background. Today was one of the most boring days of my life. I just hope the shopping and lunch will make me feel better. I was a fool for thinking that I can easily adapt to living a normal life, it's really hard and I want to go back to being a royal. We stopped before a huge shopping mall. As soon as Mark stepped into the building, all eyes turned to him. Two beautiful ladies hurried to him and gestured for him to sit down on the sofa. " I want to get some good clothes for her." He said. "I'm at your service sir" One of the ladies replied, grinning widely. They selected tons of clothes and I was laid with the responsibility of checking them all out while Mark sat comfortably on the sofa with a magazine on his hand, saying *Yes* or *No*. We ended up buying many expensive dresses, shoes, jewelries and a phone. I had my hair dressed and a little make over. When I took a look at the mirror, I was satisfied with what I saw. My red short gown and black heels fits perfectly - I now look a bit royal. I stepped out of the fitting room to reveal my new self to Mark. I turned around giggling and chuckling. His jaw dropped in shock as he stared blankly at me. "What do you think?" I asked. "Perfect. It's cool" He commended. This was the first time he was saying something nice to me. "I know right. I'm so cool and hot" I pouted my lip and he scoffed. My joy knew no bound when we finally stepped out of the shopping mall. He drove down to the confectionery which wasn't so far from the mall. We both got down. Alex led the way and I followed suit. All of a sudden, he stopped walking and turned to me. I stopped too, wondering what was going through his mind. He reached out to me and suddenly loosed my hair which was packed in a ponytail. "This looks more better" He whispered and walked inside. My heart skipped and my step faltered. I blinked my eyes in disbelief as my red cheeks curved into a smile. Gosh. Why won't my stupid heart stop beating. I hurried inside too and the moment I did, my mouth dropped to the floor in the process. Two chefs were in the oval bar cooking away. The sweet aroma of waffles and pancakes wafted in the air. It smelled delicious that I could almost taste the flavor in my mouth. Many customers were already settled and eating their food. My mouth couldn't help but watered just at looking at the other customers eat. We saw someone waving at the other end of the hall. We walked over and sat down. The two men greeted themselves like two children which just reunited after many years of separation. "Hey buddy. Wouldn't you introduce me to this pretty damsel?" "Oh, I almost forgot. Luna meet Charles my best friend and Charles meet Luna my bodyguard" " Don't listen to him, I'm his guardian angel" I interrupted. " Nice meeting you Charles" Charles burst out laughing. " You two are very good with jokes. Nice meeting you too Luna, you're beautiful" " Thank you" I blushed. " I just hope others sees that too" Mark scoffed and gestured for the waiter to come - he did. "Luna. Tell him what you want" Mark requested. "Uhm. Get me blueberry pancakes and extra whipped cream" I have read about it from the humans magazine and couldn't wait to have a taste of it. " Just get us waffles with strawberries and cookies n' cream ice cream on top" Mark ordered. The young man nooded and disappeared. Just then, Mark's phone binged. He fished it out from his pocket and the moment he read whatever that was on the screen, his face turned into a frown. "Mark Is everything alright?" I asked, worriedly. "Yeah. Dad just texted me that we will be having a very important visitor tomorrow " He announced, indifferently. "Oh. Who could this important visitor be ? Do you have anyone in mind ?" Charles asked and Mark nooded negatively. " I really don't know neither do I care" He snapped. " So tell me what you are up to lately?" He diverted the topic. We talked about many random stuffs like Mark's and Charles funny childhood moments. I couldn't stop laughing. Charles is a complete opposite of Mark, he is so funny, cool and nice. I wonder how he copes up with such a scary friend.
