Chereads / Her Darling CEO / Chapter 10 - Adira

Chapter 10 - Adira

"I was thinking since you survived that accident, I will call you Adira."

"I like that name already." Adeline says looking at me with a smile.

"What does it mean??" Fiend asks Shade with a smile because she too loved the sound of it. Her name was meant to be Fiend Elsher but now she will answer Adira Elsher, and she loved it. Her high school friends always made fun of her because of the name.

"It means strong and besides how will my daughter answer such scary name." he responded.

"I love it dad." she acknowledged.

Smiling, he looks at her.

"Now you can go, Adira." he said

Smiling she stood up and walked away from the garden.

Walking inside her closet, she picks up a black sequin dress that had a thread at the back, exposing her entire back.

Dropping it on her closet coach, she picks up a black stiletto.

She pondered on how the dress would look on her, using her fashion sense, she looks at a pink sleeveless long dress, matching it with a silver coloured stiletto heel.

Draping the dress on her body, she could tell that this was the perfect dress for her.

The day had finally reached, she had not seen her mum since the last time in their garden. She wondered how pretty her mum will look.

"Madam, we are here to get you prepared for the wedding." a voice rang in her head.

Turning around she saw a pretty girl standing in front of some group of people which got me wondering if she was the one that the entourage were gathered for.

"Oh no, my mum room is that way." she says pointing towards the left.

"We came for you, we had our best wedding makeup artist to do hers and oh my name is Tessa" the beautiful lady said.

"It's just make up, right?? so why are you guys plenty??"

"Oh that, everyone should leave!!!?. I will do the make up ON MY OWN." Tessa stressed. Her harsh response got everyone scrambling out of the room.

"So where do we start???" Adira asked her.

"Take your bath, I am waiting for you. You have chosen your dress and heels right?" she asked me.

"Yes I have done that already, I did it yesterday." she responded calmly, walking towards the other door next to her walk in closet.

In minutes, Adira was done taking her bath. She puts on her white bath robe, sitting down in front of the floor length mirror that was placed in her room.

Tessa walks towards Adira and begins her magic on her face. This went on for minutes, until Adira became tired of sitting.

"Tessa, please I want it mild not too extra." She says to Tessa softly.

''Oh this is mild." she says moving away from Adira's face.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she was marveled at the sight of her ever so plain face. She looked totally different from her normal plain looks.

Standing up, she smiles brightly in Tessa's direction which Tessa returns with a wink while packing up her stuff.

"So I will help you with your dress and everything, would not want you destroying my hard work." she says dusting her hands.

"Sure, let me get my dress." Adira replies walking into her closet to get it. Picking up the pink mixed silver sequence flowing gown with her silver stiletto.

The way her hair was styled already spelt beautiful, she was sure will be looking great on the gown.

"Let's get you in." Tessa said walking towards Adira.

That was the slowest pace Adira had ever used when wearing her clothes.

When she was done with everything, she stands up facing the floor length mirror. Adira could not believe she was the one.

She remembered when they were young, most people called her beautiful but her sister was too jealous and had to lie to their father.

"Dad, a man called Fiend beautiful and ever since she always miss her classes to go and see him.." Snow said to their father.

"Dad that is not true, I don't skip classes neither do I meet anyone!!!" I exclaimed

"Don't tell me those lies!!!!" my father screamed at me.

"I am not lying, dad." I say tears where already rolling down my face.

That day I received the beating of my life. My father always smoked, so he used the cigarette butt to touch my face which almost created a huge scar if not for my mum that heard my scream.

"You look ravishing." Tessa commented, her brought me back to reality.

I turn to her.

"You think so??" I asked her, even though I knew it.

"I know so, now let's get going, they are waiting for you."
