Chereads / A Shy Girl's Alluring Love / Chapter 4 - Decked Up!

Chapter 4 - Decked Up!

Myra led Bella to her room, closing the door once they were inside. She sat on the bed, with her legs crossed, hiding the laptop behind her back and her hands grabbed a fluffy pink pillow and placed it on her lap. Bella pressed her lips out of worry and she pleaded to Myra, "Give me my laptop back. I would just read one last email." Myra was busy patting the pillow showing no concern to Bella's talks. Bella continued, "It's very important…" Myra cut her words off as she knew what was coming next, a word that she'd been listening to for a while, EMAIL. She intervened, "Exactly! It's an important DAY Bella for the Thomson's. So, is it possible for you to at least take a day off from your part time job which isn't sufficient for your living?" She rolled her eyes as she continued, "Well, dare you say no!" Bella didn't argue with Myra because she was right, her job won't even fend a toddler.

Bella bowed as she said, "Okay Drama Queen, tell me what do you want me to do?" A big smile appeared on Myra's face for a moment. Myra's fingers brushed her chin and she enquired, "Did you select the dress that you are going to wear and if yes then show that to me right now." Bella nodded and she opened her wardrobe. Myra's jaw dropped seeing an organized wardrobe wherein the clothes lay in an organized bundle, not an inch out of the place. Myra said, "I wonder how those clothes stay neatly in a bundle without collapsing!" Bella turned her head around and flashed her smile. She removed a yellow one-piece dress studded with black stones. She flashed the dress excitedly to Myra who stared at it with gloomy eyes. She gave her nauseating looks as she said, "Do you think there's some business presentation going on?" Bella stared back at her dress with eyebrows held high. "This dress looks simple, but perfect for a business party."

Myra gaped at Bella describing the dress, but Myra simply ignored her as she aroused from the bed and yanked her wardrobe open. She pulled out a beautiful rose-pink gown and tip-toed towards Bella with her head swaying in pride as she held the dress firmly. Bella was flabbergasted seeing the beautiful rose-pink cold shoulder gown. The bottom of the gown was bordered with frills. Myra handed over the gown to Bella as she continued, "Your dress won't do justice to your beauty!" Bella's eyes grew wide and Myra could read them [So, what should I do?] Myra put the shoulder across Bella's neck and her other hand was touching the gown that Bella was holding, "Don't worry, I got your back!" Bella smiled amusingly. Myra continued, "Now, quickly go for a shower and wear this gown!" Bella's eyebrows stuck together as she said, "I thought you were wearing this dress." Myra nodded side by side as she told, "Uh no.. This dress is for a cute look. I am already cute…" She swayed her hair as she continued, "I want to deck up into something sizzling you know!" Myra pointed towards the black strapless one-piece dress hanging on the rail of her wardrobe. Bella looked at the dress and then at Myra impressively, "You have got an amazing fashion taste sister!" Myra smiled as she said, "Enough of praise, you better get into shower before my mom arrives bombarding me with her long never ending speech."

Myra threw herself in the bed as her body wanted to have some more sleep. Before she could doze off, her sleepy eyes met her phone plugged in the socket. She quickly rubbed her eyes and removed her then fully charged phone from the socket beside her bed and pulled the quilt by her chest. "I was missing out on excitement darn it!" She said as she unlocked her phone. Her fingers fiddled to open the social media application and opened her best friend's profile.

Hannah added a new post with a caption that opened her eyes wide, while her lips fell agape as her mind read, "Everyone's life has ups and downs. There were depressing times in my life too. I was surrounded by darkness, filled with bitterness, but Jung-hoon came into my life as a scented candle which illuminated my dark life and who's smell never leaves me. He is an elixir that has killed the bitterness and filled me with his sweetness. My love, my everything. I love you so much babe!" She was enthralled on reading the caption and when she saw the picture of the duo, she was bouncing off the wall. It was a lovely picture of Hannah with her golden curly hair being brushed by a handsome guy with a burly physique as the nerves could be seen popping out of his biceps. He was well scrubbed, his eyes were green in colour while his lips were fleshy pink that seemed to be melted as he pursued to kiss her lips.

Myra closed her eyes out of excitement as she screeched, "Yayy, my Hannah got a boyfriend!" She hushed as she heard the washroom door open. She kept her phone aside as she didn't want Bella to get a hinch of what she just saw and her eyes were transfixed on Bella. She got out of her bed as she led Bella in front of the cheval mirror. Myra couldn't get her eyes off Bella, who was decked up in the rose-pink gown that was a perfect fit on her body. The V neck of the gown exposed her shiny collarbones. The fabric was soft and comfy. The cold shoulders were bordered with pink fur while the V neck had diamonds studded in it. The gown had frills at the bottom. Myra exclaimed, "Oh my my.. you look like a princess!"

Bella's beaming face told how excited she was wearing the beautiful gown. Her face was glowing without any makeup. Myra was relieved to see her. She teased her, "Gotta find a prince charming for my princess!" Bella, who would manage to pull off the cold look all the time, was defeated that time. Her beaming face flushed, the moment she heard the prince which formed a picture of his boy of dreams in her mind! Myra opened the makeup kit and laid it before Bella. Myra grabbed her towel and said Bella hurriedly, "Put on some makeup! While I take a shower!"
