We hugged For quite some time, his closeness made me relax and forget all the worrisome things happening in my life right now.He released me said,
" I am sorry. I should have known how much you are putting together within yourself. And you don't have to worry anymore, I'll take care of everything."
"But only bad thing that is going to happen is tomorrow I will have face Elliott Jones, I don't know anything about him. I don't even know to whom I'll be married to."
I told it all to Franco and he just stared me for a moment and said,
"You are mine as your father promised and you approved. Elliott Jones could not do anything about it."
For the first time there was possessiveness in Franco's voice which made him sound like any other man in our world. I liked and disliked that equally. I would like to marry Franco than to Elliott,as I somewhat trust him. I spent a day with him and did not regret it for a bit whereas I hardly know anything about Elliott.
But at this point I can't take a side of Elliott or Franco as who knows to whom I'll be married of to. Fate is the most capricious thing which could not be known before it reaches us.
And my fate... well, it's always been the most miserable one,so I don't trust it anymore.
"Well, for now I have to get myself prepared for the party. We should head back home now."
I said and we sat on the car and left for home.
Franco did not say anything throughout the right just glared me again and again. He played the music on and we reached home and it was already dinner time.
When we reached hallway my mother was commanding servants to decorate the table with food.And when she saw us she approached and asked
"You collected the dress from boutique?"
"Yes, we did."
said Franco.
And before my mom could shower us with loads of questions I asked them to excuse me and went to my room Franco followed as his room was next to mine.
I went to my room,got freshen up and before anyone's call for dinner I left for the dining hall. I was the first to reach and servants were doing their jobs. I went and sat on the chair and checked my phone. Cindy messaged and I really wanted to talk to her.
Her message said,
"You gonna kill it in party tomorrow.Wish you luck."
It was much needed right at this moment and I wish she was here with me right now.
Mr and Mrs Costello entered the hall followed by my father. I stood to greet them Mrs Costello replied with a warm smile and Mr Costello just went to sit on the place where he sat during lunch.Eveleryone tool their respective seats, even Neel joined us for dinner. His soccer match was a bummer,his team lost. My mother too joined us,the only person missing was Franco. I wondered what could be the reason of him not being here.
My mother asked the servant,
"Did you not inform Franco that dinner is ready to be served?"
"I did madame.He said he is not hungry."
said our house servant.
"We should not worry about Franco and have our dinner. He usually does that,avoiding meals and especially dinner."
Mrs Costello spoke with a grin and my mother smiled back.The dinner was served and it had a large variety of food just like lunch. My parents are wasting so much of food to offer varieties to costellos.
We had our dinner with men having their business talks and women talking about other women.Ah!women gossips sucks.
After dinner I left before everyone,to my room and while passing the corridor, I saw Franco's door opening and him emerging from inside.
He grinned as soon as he saw me and said,
"I was going to look for you. I have a favour to ask for."
"umm..what is it?"
I asked.
"I am not able to pick an outfit for tomorrow,can you help me pick one?"
He asked and I realised, he doesn't seems to be a person who would be bothered with choosing outfit for a party but I decided to help him.
"yeah, sure."
I replied.
He opened the door wide for me to enter and their were his clothes all messed up, lying all round the room.The condition if his room was worse than it was in morning. I stepped consciously, not to vandalise his clothes.And finally reached near his bed where two suits were lying.
"So here are the two outfits I short listed. Pick one."
Can he ever request or ask,always ordering.So dominant.
One of the outfits was the double breasted slim fit suit in grey color color,wgich was too formal according to me and the other was a slim fit burgundy tuxedo, it liked it as I imagined Franco in it and he looked super hot.I decided to give him some grooming tips with it.
"The burgundy one."
I said.
"See, I thought so."
He said while looking at the outfit then turned to me and I was already gawking him.
"OK, OK. Thank you."
He said and I laughed at it.
"I have some grooming tips.You should keep first three buttons unbuttoned and and don't forget to gel your hairs."
I ordered him.
"Yes, madame as you say."
He obeyed quickly.
We wished each other goodnight and I went to my room,took a shower and went to sleep,ready to face whatever comes tomorrow.
