EPISODE 5
"Anya, have you finished? " Kitty screams from her room as she also preparing for her dinner outfit. She was waiting for Anya to come back from her outing before they get prepared together.
" No, not yet. Hold on, I need to straighten my hair. How many minutes left? " she was still focusing on putting her eyelashes, she then put on some mascara and draws some minimal and short eyeliner to enhance her eyes. She just put on simple makeup, just some blush, mascara, nude lipstick, and eyeliner then she was done. Now, she just needs to style her hair.
"With only one hair straightener from product X, you can style your hair with different styles and you also can curl your hair perfectly within a few seconds. Make sure to check out the product on Amazon only for ## USD using my promote code link on my bio" in Anya mind, she was already acting as one of the media social influencers. She giggles to herself as she was busy making light wavy curls on her hair.
" Maxwell said he will be coming at 7 pm and it's 6:27 pm so you still have time, " Kitty said as she comes into Anya room while holding to her hairbrush. She already also finish with her makeup and needs to style her hair too so she goes to Anya room and then does her hair there. Nothing complicated but she just straightens her hair so it is softer.
" Okay then"
They both indulge in doing their hair that both of them just stand there looking at the mirror, in silence with their hand does their job.
Minutes later, both of them finished doing their hair. Anya picks up her crochet bag that she made herself and learned how to do it from her grandma. She looks over Kitty who already putting on her heels.
" You look excited "
" Who doesn't if they are the one who invited us for dinner " Kitty replied as she smirks sillily at Anya then her phone rings. Her face beams when she picks up the calls which probably from Maxwell.
"Hello? "
" You will arrive in few more minutes? "
Kitty quickly walks to her room, grabs her handbag then glances into Anya room. Anya looks at her door, seeing Kitty sent her a sign that tells her to get ready. Anya nodded then get up to take her bag then walked out. After that, she put on her shoes. After making sure everything was locked and safe, both of getting ready to lock the door.
" Yeah sure, both of us are ready. Yes, the front yard that has a dead tree that was painted with yellow paint"
" Okay, we'll go out now"
By then, both of them heard a horn from outside. They walk out and Anya locks the door. Both of them gasp when they saw the car park in their driveway. A FREAKING FERRARI GTC4LUSSO! Try to imagine now, two handsome men in a Ferrari GTC4Lusso and they were waiting for you and you will be sitting inside there too.
Waking up from their bewilderedness, they began to walk towards the car. Maxwell then turns down the car window and Kitty cheerfully greets both of them.
"Hey, Kitty. Hey, Anya. You both look great today, "He said before he comes out of the car and opens up the car door for both of the ladies.
He bends down the sits then Kitty glance at Anya while throwing her a weird silly look before she turns her attention to both of the men.
" You two look handsome too. Anya, I'll sit in front and you sit at the back with Jackson okay? "Kitty smiled knowingly at Anya as she gently pushes Anya to go inside to the back seat of the car sitting next to Jackson.
Anya rolls her eyes at her friend antic so she bends her body and sits down, unconsciously straightened her back when sitting next to Jackson.
"Hai Jackson "she greets timidly at Jackson who was looking at her.
" Hai Anya. You look beautiful today" he replied as he praised Anya who seems very shy. How can someone looks attractive yet cute at the same time, he pondered to himself.
"Hahaha thanks, you look handsome too today "
"Jah, all set. Now let's go to our destination, "Maxwell said before he begins to drive away from their driveway.
It took them almost 15 minutes to arrive at the restaurant. Beside along their way, Maxwell and Kitty was the only one who's doing the talks while Jackson and Anya, both were staring out of the window looking at the cityscape.
Maxwell then finds a place to park the cars near the restaurant, however, there weren't any vacant car parks so they had to drive a bit more as they find a vacant place, Maxwell professionally reverses and parks the cars.
They all came out from the cars and Maxwell locked the car door then four of them walking side by side to the restaurant.
As they were approaching, they saw Henry was waiting in front of the premises along with Samuel.
" Oh Hai, Anya. Hey, Kitty. You both look amazing today. Not that you guys didn't look great before" Samuel praised the ladies as he looked at them and couldn't help but praising the beauties.
" You flattered us. Both of you look delightful too HAHAHAHA"
They all laughing at Kitty's answer. While they were talking, the pedestrian that we're walking nearby couldn't help but stare at six of them.
It wasn't a normal occurrence to see handsome men and beauties together gathering in one place and publicly flaunting their attractiveness.
" Glad you think so "Samuel winks playfully at Kitty who immediately blushing.
" By the way, where is Bret? "Henry asked as he noticed that the man who is Anya's and Kitty's best friend wasn't around.
" Bret said he's on the way and will be arriving in any minute," Anya told them while she was looking at her's and Bret conversation just now. Bret lives in another side of the city that needs to take almost half an hour to come to their university. Might seems far but he couldn't leave his besties alone.
He is probably still stuck in a traffic jam nearby or he still looking for a vacant car park so he can be there at any minute.
"Jackson, three more are coming to join us too. Darcy and Chad along with Edgar said they will be arriving soon" Henry told Jackson about his other friend's arrival. He nodded at Henry. He then looks at Anya, who dresses comfortably but still looking pretty.
Even with a simple t-shirt, pants, and shoes along with simple make-up on her face, she can easily attract attention anywhere she goes.
Jackson looks around and saw some man ogling at Anya. He couldn't help but stand next to Anya, trying to differ their attention away from Anya. He admits that Anya is beautiful and he kinda feels a little agitated at anyone who stares inappropriately towards her.
" Alright then. Why don't we enter first? " He suggested as he feels a little disturbed by the pedestrian stares.
" Let's go "
Then six of them walk into the restaurant and the steward immediately recognized four of the gentleman as he then guides them to their usual spots.
The restaurant has two sides, on the left side, it is portrayed as a warm, comfy yet chic place with the furniture is like a homey base but on the other side of the spacious dining room is lined with cut logs, wine bottles, and a warming fireplace. The spot even hosts live jazz nights for a truly special experience. As they walk to the idea areas, it was divided into 3 spaces, left and right and the middle. The middle table was a bit more further at the back and have bigger space compare to the front two spaces.
Around the area was filled with different kinds of plants and there were lanterns and fairy lights to light up the space given it a warmer environment. In the middle of the space have a big tulip tree that was decorated with dangling fairy lights. The sky was getting darker as the night was approaching making the scenes look warm and beautiful. Also, they have a small bar lounge facing the trees.
The steward guides them to the bigger space that's were 12 feet, filled with beige and brown dining sets along with 8 seaters patios sectional sofa sets.
" Thank you," Anya told to the steward as they taking their seats and he nodded then walks away.
Anya noticed that there was only one seat left and that was next to Jackson. She glances at all of them only witnessing they were grinning at her and Kitty was winking her eyes and rolls her eyes to tell Anya to sit there.
Anya looks at Jackson who was currently talking to the waitress before he turned his attention towards them and asking for their orders. She sighed but still sits next to that man.
" What do you want to eat? " asked Jackson to her. She was startled at him who ask her so suddenly.
" Aaaa, red Lobster crab pasta and greek salmon salad" she replied to him.
He then turned to the waitress saying, "she and I will have red lobster crab pasta and greek salmon salad. Also, do you want anything for desserts? "
He looks at Anya and she shakes her head, " then bring both of us brownie lasagna and lemon cheesecake. That's all."
Anya thanked him then at the same time, her phone rings.
" You've arrived? I'll go fetch you right now"
Jackson taps on her hands so she looks at him with Bret still on the line.
" No need to fetch him. Tell him to say my name to the steward then he will bring him here"
She nodded then repeated what Jackson told her. She got off the phone and put it back in her purse. Soon after, Bret's silhouette can be seen through the transparent door. Kitty waves her hands towards Bret as he was approaching to their tables.
" Sorry, I'm late guys. The traffic jams were horrendous! "he told them after he greets them.
"It's fine. This part of the city is always full of people and cars. We always go here to eat so I think why not take you guys to try the foods they serve here. It's delicious" Samuel licks his lip as he thinks of the foods.
" You're drooling right now Samuel" Henry jokes at him. Turns out, Samuel was a foodie like Anya and her friends. So, after Bret ordering his foods, they were discussing food and their favorite.
At the side, there was one young man who stares at the lady who had a sparkling eye while she talks about her favorites food and beverage. Her excited giggles as she explains the details and the flavor of the food she had ever taste. He plopped on his hand as he looks at her. The warm light from the fairy light and the environment cause her to look more stunning than ever.
Time seems to stop when she suddenly turns around and their eyes were connected. She smiled shyly as pulls her hair to the back of her ears as there was a slightly tinted blush on her cheek. She then looks away to the side and engaging back in the conversation.
