Chapitre 5: Chapter 5 Gifts and Envy
Stacy savored the last bites of her dinner, the taste of Mrs. Wang cooking lingering on her taste buds. She glanced at the empty chair across from her, where Jin sat earlier.
He hadn't returned yet, and a hint of concern crept into her thoughts. What was keeping him outside for so long? She decided to investigate and stood up from the dining table.
"Mum, Dad, I'll be right back," she announced to her parents as she left the cozy confines of their home. The evening air was crisp as she stepped outside, and her breath formed small clouds in the chilly night.
She spotted Jin standing beside his car, lost in his thoughts. His distant expression worried her.
"Hey Jin, are you alright?" Stacy asked, her voice filled with genuine concern.
She walked up to him and gently tapped his shoulder to get his attention. He seemed to snap out of his reverie and forced an awkward smile.
"I'm okay, baby. Let me get you your gift," he replied, taking her hand in his. With a graceful movement, he opened the car's trunk and retrieved a small box, handing it to her with a warm smile.
Stacy's eyes widened with anticipation as she took the box from him.
"Here, it's for you," Jin said, his smile growing more genuine as he watched her.
Excitement painted Stacy's face as she gently opened the box to reveal a stunning set of jewelry. The necklace, bracelet, and earrings were all exquisitely made with diamonds, reflecting the brilliance of their love.
Her eyes glistened with tears of joy as she looked up at Jin and placed a tender kiss on his cheek. "Thank you so much. I love them," she said, her smile illuminating her face.
Stacy was overjoyed with the beautiful and intricate jewelry set that Jin had gifted her. As she admired the diamonds sparkling under the lights, her heart swelled with love for him.
She had always known that Jin had a special place in his heart for her, but this gift was a testament to his deep affection.
Jin's voice softened as he explained, "I thought of you the minute I saw this set, so I had it customized just for you." Stacy couldn't believe her luck.
She was touched by the thoughtfulness behind the necklace, which bore her initials, FJ, as a symbol of their love. "Put it on for me," she requested, lifting her hair as Jin carefully fastened the necklace around her neck.
He then adorned her with the matching bracelet and earrings, completing the set.
Unable to contain her excitement, Stacy took out her phone and snapped a picture of her hand decorated with the jewelry. She then tugged Jin closer, capturing their beaming faces in a selfie.
"Um, Bai, I need to head back now," Jin reluctantly said, placing a gentle peck on her cheeks.
Although Stacy didn't want the moment to end so soon, she understood his responsibilities and bid him farewell with a warm hug.
As Jin drove away, Stacy made her way back home, eager to showcase her new treasures in the privacy of her bedroom.
Upon entering her room. Stacy's room was a sanctuary of tranquility and elegance, a reflection of her unwavering love for the color white.
From the moment you stepped inside, you were enveloped in a pristine world of serenity. The room was spacious, with high ceilings that added to its grandeur. It was, indeed, a room fit for a princess.
The centerpiece of the room was the majestic canopy bed. Its frame, an intricate work of art, was crafted from ivory-painted wrought iron, adorned with delicate swirls and curves.
The pristine white curtains that hung from the canopy gave the bed an ethereal quality, transforming it into a dreamy haven. Stacy's bed was her throne, her refuge from the chaos of the world.
The bedsheet, a soft and luxurious fabric, was an immaculate white. It was meticulously tucked in, ensuring the perfect crispness.
Stacy had an eye for detail, and her room was a testament to her meticulous nature. The pillows, plumped to perfection, were adorned with lace-trimmed shams, adding a touch of delicacy to the overall decor.
The walls of the room were painted a pure, angelic white, and they seemed to radiate a gentle glow, even in the dimmest of lighting.
The white walls created an illusion of endless space, making the room feel even more vast and airy. Against one wall stood a large, ornate white-framed mirror, its reflective surface offering a glimpse of the room's ethereal beauty from various angles.
A white chandelier hung from the ceiling, casting a soft, warm glow that bathed the room in a soothing ambiance.
The crystal droplets on the chandelier caught the light and scattered it in all directions, creating a mesmerizing play of sparkles on the walls and floor. It was as though stars had descended from the heavens to grace Stacy's sanctuary.
A pristine white cabinet stood against one wall, its doors adorned with intricate carvings of roses in bloom.
It held her collection of books, each one carefully arranged and dusted regularly. Stacy was an avid reader, and the cabinet served as a gateway to countless adventures and stories, most of which were medical books.
Her bathroom, an extension of her sanctuary, was no less impressive. The tiles were a glossy white, reflecting the light that streamed in through the large window.
The bathtub, an elegant claw-footed design, was painted a lustrous white. Stacy often enjoyed long, luxurious baths surrounded by the scent of her favorite lavender-scented candles.
The vanity, a graceful white antique piece, was adorned with her collection of makeup and perfumes.
She had a particular fondness for classic white pearls, and they adorned the edges of the vanity mirror. Sitting there, she would transform herself into a vision of grace and beauty.
The room was a symphony of white, an ode to purity and simplicity. But it was more than just a color scheme;
It was a reflection of Stacy's personality. She found solace in the serenity of white, its ability to cleanse and purify, both in the physical and emotional sense.
After taking a refreshing shower and slipping into her comfortable nightwear, Stacy grabbed her phone As she lay on her pristine white bed, adorned with her new diamond jewelry, Stacy couldn't help but feel like a princess in her enchanted castle.
She immediately opened her Weibo account. With great enthusiasm, she shared the photos she had taken earlier, accompanied by a heartfelt caption:
"#Thanks to my better half for the gift. Baibai and Jin forever. ❤️" Being the best friend that she was, Stacy made sure to tag Yuan yuan, wanting her to be a part of this special moment.
Meanwhile, in her own room, Yuan yuan sat seething with anger as she saw Stacy's post. As she read the caption.
Her heart sank, and anger began to fester within her. The words "#Thanks my better half" pierced her heart like a dagger. She tossed her phone aside, her emotions swirling in a tempestuous sea of jealousy and resentment.
