Chapter 52 - THE PRICE (2/2)
And then without waiting for her answer, he entered his car.
”Get out from there,” Blue told Nikolai.
The window of the backseat rolled down and Nikolai's small face appeared. He looked pitiful when he spoke, ”But, he has my bag.” He pointed his index finger at his backpack that was confiscated by Gael.
====================
It was a rare occasion for his parents to take him to a shopping center, let alone as big as this, since there would be nothing that they could afford, because his family needed to save money.
Therefore, when Gael took him and Blue into this big shopping center, Nikolai couldn't stop looking around him in fascination, especially when this man bought him a delicious cone of ice cream.
He wanted to keep it, so he could let his sister taste it too, but it was not possible, because the ice cream would melt if he didn't eat it.
”Why did you bring me here?” Blue asked, enjoying her vanilla ice cream, well her annoyance was easily taken care of when she had something that she liked.
”Like you know, I will get married in three days, but you have not bought your dress yet.” Gael ushered the two children inside a fancy boutique, where many beautiful and expensive dresses were on full display.
”I will not go.”
”Why not?”
”I have homework.”
”I will do your homework.”
”That's cheating.”
Gael shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. ”I have done worse.”
And an hour later, Blue had tried on various beautiful dresses that made Nikolai unable to take his eyes off her.
Not because she looked extremely beautiful. Well, she was beautiful, but when he knew the price for each dress that Blue was wearing, he dared not to touch it. He wouldn't be able to afford it if the dress was ruined.
However, Blue simply tossed one aside if she didn't like it.
”I want one in the color blue,” she insisted.
”But my wedding concept is white, you silly girl.”
And the female employee there gave a solution for the two.
”Okay,” both of them agreed and Nikolai grimaced once again when he saw the price.
