The next day, Anna prepared for work like she always did and left. By the time reached at the café, it was way earlier than yesterday's arrival time.
As soon her colleagues set their eyes on her, they all cooed to her new look.
" No way! " Christine said while checking up Anna.
" Our girl matured up" Frank said. By now, everyone had gathered around her. One of the good things the café Javas' workers had, it was unity, they all worked as one team.
" Turn around" They all cooed in unison as they laughed and hand clapped. Anna just did what she was asked to do as she laughed with them.
Anna is a tall chocolate skinned girl with an hour glass figure. Not so thick but thick enough to weigh 80+kgs. She has a well shaped big round butt and well curved curves, full firm breasts and a slim waist. A small sharp nose, well shaped white teeth with a gap in them and the heart shaped lips. Her natural hair always trimmed short but suits her.
Anna has all the considered physical features of the most beautiful black women alive. And yes; she surpasses all girls of her age in terms of beauty wherever she goes regardless of her poor body care and makeup maintenance.
Unless always, Anna's appearance looked deferent now. Her usual black short hair was now partly dyed platinum blond, her eyesbrows done and her finger nails polished cherry red.
All her colleagues and customers kept complementing her beauty the whole day untill it was time for the party in the evening. Even today, he hadn't come by. Anna was now at loss. She wished that all the complements she had gotten the whole day, even he's was among. ' What happened to you dear Liam? Hope you're fine' she thought with sadness.
'I loved you from the moment I saw you, I've always loved you.....'
Anna shook her head in denial, " Stop Anna, stop. It is but a dream." She assured herself. Goosebumps had already formed all over her body at the thought of his voice she had heard. She still wished it was true.
" How could I dream about you and you don't show up for two days at all? I hate you for that."
" Annabella!"
Anna jumped in alarm. She turned to look at the voice owner and it was Comfort.
" Shit!" Anna exclaimed as she held her chest.
Comfort raised a brow " Chill young lady, what's the panic attack for? Are you in much trouble?"
Anna shook her head. " All good, I will be fine." She assured her with a smile.
" You better." Comfort said and passed by her, " Come on, let's go party, baby" She said in singsong way as she retreated without glancing back again.
Anna sighed to calm her nerves, what startled her was the name Comfort coincidentally called her. "Annabella?" She asked herself, " But he called me Annabelle! Ah! You're now making me go crazy. What are you doing to me, Liam?"
" Are you waiting for some special bells to get yourself ready, Anna" Mr Balaji remarked. Anna didn't wait for another remark as she sprint to the restrooms to change into other uniforms.
She changed into a black kneehigh round skirt, a white full sleeves shirt with a red bowtie and a pair of red heels. She applied a cherry red lipstick complementing her red nail polish, hills and bowtie. In less than ten minutes, she was done with everything.
Mr Balaji was the first one to see her, " Wow!" He whistled in exaggeration. "See, this is what I was talking about! Look at you"
Anna just mentally rolled her eyes at his annoying complement, ' If only one person could say so' she thought.
" Can I have a short video with you, please? My viewers would like to see this." Comfort said pointing her finger to Anna up and down, Anna nodded with a giggle. Unlike other waiters and waitresses, Comfort is a cashier who also get paid extra money for advertising the café on her social media platforms. She is a tiktok and Instagram rising star dancer and fashionista, all thanks to Anna and her beauty, she had gained more and more likes and followers ever since Anna started appearing in her videos and lives. But, even though Anna ranks the most beautiful girl all-over, Comfort is no less beautiful. Her lighter skin and slim body with a cute face ranking her number two. (At the café)
" I think it would be better if we make that video on the party, right?" Anna suggested, her moods not at ease.
" Sure" Comfort nodded, "That sounds great"
After endless complements from Ann's colleagues, they set off for the party.
Mr Balaji pulled over at a large exquisite mansion. " Here we go"
" Wow! This is beautiful!" Anna commented in wonderment. To her, it looked like a castle she had never seen. Not like her single room house she rents in the out skirts of the city, this house stood tall and vast. From her judgement, it seemed to be an eight rooms house.
" Let's first take a quick tour, Anna." Comfort suggested and Anna couldn't agree less. In less than five minutes, they had already reached in every nook and cranny of the mansion's exteriors. They had arrived earlier than the party's duration; the guests were yet to arrive, providing them enough time to wander around.
" Wow! I really wonder how inside the house look like. Mr Edmond is sure a clergyman ." Anna wondered. After their fanciful tour, Paul helped the girls film their earlier promised video in the nicely mown lawn. Anna was attempted to also take some selfies on her own cell phone but it's low quality camera discouraged her. She envied Comfort's iPhone great rom and ram. After some time, they got in the parlor to start organising the provided working stuffs.
Time flew by quickly and the awaited party started. By now, all the guest had arrived and the parlor was full of elite guests. At some point, Anna felt like she belonged in them. Her sharp heels hitting the mable floor gracefully and confidently as her round skirt swayed with every step she took, her left hand holding a tray full of wine glasses as she served the guests with the smile that never left her beautiful lips.
" Nana!" Someone called and Anna turned around in surprise. It's only her family members who call her by that name.
It was Eric; Nancy's boyfriend. Anna handed Frank her tray and went in for a hug.
" Holy cow! You look beautiful, girl" Eric said, still in her embrace. Anna disengaged from the hug and dramatically turned around to show off her outfit and accessories as she a little modelled. Eric is not only her cousin sister's boyfriend but also her friend she has seen for years.
" Has Nancy seen you today?" Eric asked.
" Nope"
" Mmmh! Alright, " Eric nodded. " She will need this then." He said and took out his cell phone, the duo took selfies in various pauses and then sent them to Nancy. Nancy shrilled out of excitement from the other end. They talked for a brief moment about how cute and stunning Anna looked. Nancy urged Anna for a sleep over and Anna had nothing else do but to agree and then after resumed her work.
