Chapitre 16: The Devil Queen
- Next day, May 17, 8:15am -
"Eh? You are still in your pajamas? Sia, it's quarter past eight you are gonna be late!"
"Actually forgot to tell you: something happened to one of the major presenter groups so they had to change the schedule a bit and I am actually free today!"
"What??? You could have told me so that I could sleep more!" Alex said making an angry and annoyed face.
"I thought you would like my surprise... I thought you would be glad that you get to spend more time with me," Sia said looking down as if about to cry.
Alex almost ran to her when he thought that she might cry. She didn't know him well so probably she thought that he was truly angry. He had long forgotten how sensitive girls could be.
He gently patted her head and said softly,
"I am sorry, ok? I was just acting angry. Of course I am happy! How can I not be? Is there anything in particular you want to do? Even though Will and Ren aren't here we can still go to the food places you wanted to visit. And I will even let you do the makeup you so wanted to do last time. How does that sound?"
At his words Sia tried hard to not show her elation and with her head still hanging down asked softly and quietly,
"You will really let me decide and do anything I want to do?"
"Yes."
Sia still didn't raise her head as she was trying to hide the smile that was blooming on her face.
"Anything? Whatever makeup I want?"
A shiver ran down Alex's spine, but he still couldn't say no to her so he agreed again.
Confirming that he gave his consent Sia jumped from her seat and hugged him tightly before running to her room to get her cosmetics.
Alex, on the other hand, was still standing in a daze. After her figure was out of his sight he cursed silently,
"Shit, she played me... Again."
- An hour later -
"SIANA ILLES! You gotta be kidding me! I am not going out like this! What if someone recognizes me? What if people post pictures? And most importantly, where the fuck did you get all of these?"
"Calm down and please do not forget your promise. You gave your verbal consent. As for all of these things, how else do you think I sneak around the streets?" She said rolling her eyes at him.
Then, taking a quick look at her wrist watch she said panicked,
"Oh shit! We need to go now or else we are gonna have to pay extra for the wait. The cab is almost here!"
"What? What extra pay? What cab? I literally have tens of cars! And what's with cursing? Where have your manners gone?" Alex said exasperated.
"Duh, if we come out of any of the cars you own all the attention will be on us. As for my manners they are for strangers. Now with all the questions answered quit whining and follow me!" Sia said in an annoyed yet authoritative tone, leaving no room for further arguments.
- Some time later, Southmarket -
The market was crowded with people and the air garnered different appetizing smells. The food selection varied from local traditional to international. It also varied from desserts to salads to mains. People were having combinations of different courses as it was already brunch time.
Among the crowd two people could be seen walking hand in hand. Some of the customers waiting in the queues started observing them out of boredom ... and also because they stood out... a bit.
It was quite fun watching someone shorter pulling someone taller. Also, there seemed to be something wrong with the tall 'lady' as 'she' literally had a horrified expression on her pale face.
People in this age were all tolerant and understanding but this tall 'lady' actually needed some guidance. It seemed like 'she' just started 'her' road of transformation as could be guessed from her makeup and her clothes. For example, from closer inspection one could see that 'her' lipliner was uneven, and 'her' contouring wasn't great as well.
Her clothes, though looked expensive, but were poorly matched and had some obvious defects.
'Probably imitations' most people thought.
It was also probably 'her' who did the makeup for the shorter lady with brown hair. Maybe for honing her skills, or maybe the short lady also had horrible makeup skills. She actually had a much darker foundation on her face compared to her skin that showed on her hands. Also, she had very thick painted brows and a big aquiline nose which stood out more because of her poor makeup.
Overall, the women around them had the urging to go and teach the poor ladies about makeup, while man slowly walked away as they didn't want to be hit on by these women.
"My dear Alexia what do you want to eat? Have you been here? Can you give me recommendations?"
"Alexia? Siana, I am so going to kill you!" Alex said through gritted teeth.
"My dear, where have your manner gone?" Sia said with a 'horrified' expression deliberately repeating his words.
Alex was now dumbstruck. He was completely clueless what to do or where to hide.
He was wearing a skirt! A fucking long skirt!
It was actually one of the unsuccessful samples of his collection on which he was experimenting at home. And she just had to choose that one! He was going to have a heart attack, no worse: he was actually going to die from embarrassment.
"How can you be a neurosurgeon when you have such bad dexterity? You can't even use a simple lipliner!" It was his comeback time!
"My dear, it's not about being able to do something, It's about choosing what you want to do!" She stuck her tongue out and winked at him.
"Wait, you gotta be kidding me! Do you mean to say that you did this on purpose?"
"Love talking to smart people like you," Sia laughed at her cousin's shocked expression.
"...Why?" Alex asked puzzled, though to be completely honest he felt like crying at that moment.
"Cause it's so much more fun!" She chided and continued pulling the horrified 'lady' to one of the stalls with a delicious smell.
- Somewhere, among the crowd of people -
Someone was holding his stomach and roaring with an unrestrained laughter. He had his bluetooth earbuds on, and was on call with someone but he just couldn't contain his laughter.
The person on the line waited patiently for the guy to calm down but he soon started to run out of patience.
"What's happening there?"
The blonde tried to talk but then burst out into another fit of laughter. After some time he managed to calm down a bit and said,
"Ahhahahaha ... I am dying, I can't... Ahahaha ... You need to see this! No wonder you are so head over heels for her. hhahahah ... I swear, if you are the devil king then I assure you that she is the devil queen... ahahhahah"
