Malia's POV
I was sitting on the edge of my bed as Jeneil painted my toes , Aaliyah entered the room with my gown , shoes and two other women dressed in black with kits in their hands . Jeneil looked up at me and mouthed ' Be nice ' , I faked a smile at her,
"Aaliyah , who are these women ? " I asked going through my phone
" Your make up artist and hairstylist Ms.Rose " she spoke and I nodded
" They can settle in the corner of the room , place my gown on my bed " I said then got up waddling trying not to smudge my toes . Jeneil spoke ,
"You actually did my nails pretty good " She was looking at her nails , I laughed and spoke
" Psh it's me , go by the ladies to get your make up and hair done love " I walked into the bathroom getting Jeneil's gown and hung behind the door and walked back out.
My phone began to rang and I waddled to the bed stand then I answered it ,
" Malia here " I spoke as I sat by the hairstylist
" You coming ?" As soon as he spoke , I glared at aaliyah and signaled her to come
" No Damien , stop calling me " I said nicely
" I have no feelings for you please stop " I semi-yelled grabbing Jeneil's attention
" Bab-(gco) "
I hung up and my wrath was about to be releashed .
" Aaliyah , what did I say about Damien ?"
She was silent , I inhaled deeply and released a loud exhale.
"Continue doing my hair " I said to the lady.
" Malia.." Jeneil spoke softly , I ignored her and kept my head straight , I wiped the tears that rolled down my cheek .
My make up was finished soon after , I was silent whole night but I loved the work done by the ladies.
I thanked them and got out the chair then walked to the bed , " Jeneil , could you just help me slide into this dress please " I spoke softly
She smiled at me , then spoke "You look beautiful Mali " and proceeded to help me get into the dress. I looked amazing , I took a picture for the gram with the caption " Black is Beautiful " .
Jeneil looked gorgeous ,
I saw my phone lighting up , I let it ring and helped Jeneil with her accessories . Aaliyah spoke softly ,
" Miss Rose we need to leave in the next 20 minutes also I found potential workers "
I nodded and picked up my clutch and slid my phone inside of it , then Jeneil began to walk to the door . The hairdresser and make up artist left then Aaliyah was finally dressed ,
"Aaliyah fly back to the office tomorrow , and get ready for the meeting with Mr.Luciano " I spoke loudly as Jeneil ajd i walked to the elevator with aaliyah behind us .
"Okay m'am " she replied.
1 hour later
We arrived and Alfred opened the limo door for us , the camera flashes were overwhelming . I had to pose for a couple by myself then I dragged Jeneil for a few , as soon I entered everyone began clapping . I smiled and waved at everyone that greeted me . I thought Jeneil was beside me but I saw her in the corner with the mystery man from home. From what Jeneil told me , his name is Brandon Platt , 26 years old and he's an attorney at law.
(Damon Platt)
I felt someone staring at me , so I searched through the crowd and saw him standing in his glory looking handsome in his suit , sipping on wine . He was staring at me and licked his lips slowly , my emotions were cut off when I saw Ms. Holly Martin . The Slùt that slept her way to the top , and right now I believe she's trying to get to Mr.Kadmus , the way she's throwing herself at him.
I needed to rescue from this høe attack , I walked up to them and in time too because she was talking.
"I'm sorry that I'm late, Mrs. Martin and Mr. Kadmus" I spoke .
"Oh its quite alright darlin'" Holly spoke unnecessarily , she fake smiled at me and of course I returned one.
"Your country twang never ceases to amaze me ever since we meet Holly" I spoke putting my hands on my waist . Holly face turned red and left with a 'hmph' .
"Mr. Kadmus" I said turning towards him smiling.
He returned the smile with just as much sincerity. "Ms. Rose" He said then I outstretched my hand and he took it lovingly before planting a kiss on my hand.
"I'm glad you could make it, after all your pieces are here and on display." I said trying to hide my blush but one of his piece caught my attention .
"It's simply just a reworked version of Jacques Louis Dubois's Of Goddess Hebe from 1768. All these paintings in this room are ones that I did when I got bored; those of significance were in my museum safely locked away from the world for now" He said
"Ahh of course I would come, it would be terribly rude if I didn't" I was cut off by Mrs. Quintin yelling into the microphone , she is such a sweet old lady.
"Now presenting, woman of the evening, Malia Rose!" The crowd cheered and raised their glasses , I looked at him again before walking into the crowd on onto the stage.
I stepped onto the platform and began to speak but his eyes never left mine as I spoke ,
" I want to thank all those that have assisted me on my journey of success , those who actually looked out for my well being . Life is never easy , it never turns out the way you planned . Holding on is important , and Tonight is a celebration ....."
30 minutes later
I came down from the stage and walked towards my table and this painting was potrayed
Everyone had taken their seat by now , Aison sat three tables away from me. Every now and then he would sneek glimpses of me causing me to look down . Jeneil looked at me then asked ," What's wrong with you?" I just shook my head .
I need a couple shots.
