That Night, At Reo's Mansion, Grande Avenue...
...
Reo lay on his enormous bed, thinking as he waited for sleep. He thought of the pretty ginger girl in the school uniform again. Pictures of her beauty had somehow adhered to his mind during her short visit.
'That girl... She's so beautiful...', he thought as Ciara's pictures flashed through his mind briefly.
He recalled that he had asked to take her home but she had refused. She had rejected everything he had offered, including dinner.
"...She rejected everything I offered... Well, at least she took the concert ticket. This way I can see her again... After all, I'm still indebted to her...", he murmured, trying to explain away his desire to see her again.
'...I'm not usually like this. I hardly pay this much attention to women. What's up with me today?...', he wondered.
"...Huff... I better get some sleep.", he said, turning off the night lamp.
...
Reo shut his eyes and drifted off to sleep almost immediately. A miracle that had not occurred in many years.
In his sleep, he dreamt of Ciara.
...
IN HIS DREAMS...
Reo found Ciara standing at the most expensive and luxurious VIP mall in C country!
Suddenly, the glass doors of the glorious mall opened up dramatically and a large red carpet was rolled out before her feet.
A dozen attendants filed out with the owner of 'Bedazzle VIP Mall' to greet Ciara, the VIP guest.
"Welcome Miss. We've been expecting you. It's an honour to serve you today.", the owner greeted with a bow. The neatly suited attendants followed after with a synchronised deep bow.
"Mmm... Yes, Gary.", Ciara answered in a rich and famous tone, her nose up in the air.
She was dressed in a short, sexy, leopard print dress and a thick cream fur coat from the latest Fersace collection. The expensive fur coat hung off her bare shoulders in a fashion statement. A stylish nude hat adorned her head. Her be-jewelled right fingers clutched a shiny matching purse and her feet displayed expensive high-heeled nude-coloured boots.
She took off her designer glasses with her gloved fingers.
"What do you have for me today? Impress me, Gary.", she said, cat-walking into the mall like a celebrity with Gary as her guide.
"Certainly Miss. We will do our best.", Gary said, leading her to a lineup of the latest designer collections.
"Miss Ciara, these are the latest custom-made collections from the greatest designers in C country. Balentino, Golce and Dabana, Vouis Luitton, Rucci, etc. There are only two of each in the world, Miss. I hope you find these to your liking..."
Ciara's large amber eyes sparkled with the shine of the clothes, shoes and accessories worth billions of dollars!
"Who has the other one?", she asked, her lips in a classic billionaire pout. Her full eyelashes fluttered with the elegant flair of a queen bee.
"A museum in Milan Miss.", Gary answered.
"Mmm... Fine. I'll take them.", she said, feeling too wealthy.
A group of attendants wheeled the selection out.
Next, Gary presented a selection of jewellery, ranging from diamond to gold, emerald, sapphire, pearls and blood-red rubies.
"Miss, this is our priced collection of the best, the finest, the rarest and highest grade of jewellery, from pearls to gold, sapphire, emerald, rubies and your personal favourite, diamonds... These diamonds were just freshly cut and transported off the coast of X country, the producers of the highest quality in the world. Please, pick what you like.", he said.
Ciara narrowed her eyes with a rich squint. She inspected the jewellery, looking down on anyone whose shine didn't blind her.
"Hmm... I'll take these 30!.", she said, picking out the most expensive ones.
"Of course, Miss. Your taste is impeccable as always.", Gary praised.
"Is there anything else I may offer you, Miss?", he added politely.
"No. That will be all. Thank you, Gary. Charge it all to my husband's tab... Reo will gladly pay! Haha!...
...I must be on my way.", she said, cat-walking out of the VIP mall with her bodyguards.
"Of course, Miss. Goodbye. Thank you for your kind patronage.", the owner and his team of attendants bowed her out.
Ciara entered her latest model Wolls Woyce vehicle amidst the blissful sounds of a thousand camera shutters of the paparazzi taking pictures. The car glistened with prestige.
"Next stop, the bank!", she cooed, fanning money in the air.

Reo woke up with hysterical laughter.
"Woah! Haha! What the hell was that?... Now I'm dreaming of her?"
He facepalmed.
"What a weird dream... Hilarious! Haha! Why do I have a feeling her personality is exactly like that?... So ridiculous haha!... But this beats having nightmares..."
He looked around and noticed it was morning. His eyes widened a tad bit with surprise.
'It's morning... Meaning I slept the whole night!?... That hasn't happened in years... Hmm... This counts as a break right?... Could she be my cure?...', he wondered.
'...Hmm... It'll be interesting to see her again...'
He thought about the phone number in tiny print on the VIP ticket.
'...I wonder if she's seen it yet...', he thought to himself with a finger on his chin.
