Chapter 49 Will you marry me? (1/2)
When they walked out from LV, both were holding bags. Ryn first did not want to buy anything but Mika insisted for them to have the same purse. And Mika paid for them.
”Where next?” Mika asked, couldn't stop from grinning from ear to ear. Shopping was the best remedy.
She loved shopping, especially with Ryn.
”Pedicure and manicure? You always love a pedi and mani session,” Ryn suggested after she glanced at her watch. Not yet. They still needed to wait for more.
”I want. I want. I want. Look at my nails. I need new colours.”
”What new colour? You'll choose either pink or pink or… oh, yes, pink.” Ryn pointed out dryly.
”Even pink has a lot of options. Besides, as a model, you do need to take care of your nails too.”
”Yes, yes. I understand, Mom,” Ryn teased. She pinched Mika's cheek playfully.
They finally arrived at a nail saloon while teasing and giggling. The saloon was a frequent place for Mika and they all recognized her as one of their most important patrons. They quickly welcomed both Mika and Ryn in and even provided hot tea and a plate of macaroons.
”What colour do you want for your nails?” Mika asked while watching Ryn selecting the options. She had already chosen what she wanted; pearly pink with a hint of white. For her feet, she chose darker pink.
Ryn finally chose cream colour for her fingers but no colour for her feet. Once she was done, she sat next to Mika on the comfortable chair and let the girls doing the manicure and pedicure. She closed her eyes and stole some moments for a quick nap.
Mika, already knew what Ryn was doing without looking at her, simply smiled and closed her eyes. She wanted to rest as well.
”Where are we going next?” Mika asked as they walked out from the nail saloon.
Ryn looked down at her phone. Finally, the message she was waiting for.
”Ryn?”
”Let's go watch movie. I heard there is a new movie that might will become your favourite.”
”My favourite?” Mika's eyes lit up.
”You won't even forget this film for the rest of your life,” Ryn said without thinking.
It made Mika paused. She won't forget this movie for the rest of her life?
”Ryn?”
”Let's go. Let's go. Or we will miss the movie,” not wanting to answer questions, Ryn pulled Mika to walk quicker. Her heart was pounding hard. Hope nothing would go against the plan.
”I'll buy the tickets while you buy the food. I want caramel popcorn and cola.” She pushed Mika toward the people queuing for food. Before Mika could ask her, she quickly rushed toward the que for movie ticket.
She kept checking the message, confirming everything was according to plan. When she reached the counter, she showed the message sent by Jason. The girl at the counter nodded and handed her two tickets.
”The movie will start once you give the signal,” the girl told her with a wink.
Ryn thanked her and went to Mika who was still waiting for her turn. Ryn showed the tickets, purposely hiding the title of it. She pointed at the big LCD display.
”It's seating time. Hurry.”
”Just one more,” Mika quickly went to the available counter to order the food. She could not wait to watch the movie with her best friend.
Ryn helped to bring the big box of popcorn while Mika brought the drinks. She scanned the tickets at the entrance and led Mika to the hall. It felt weird when they were the only two entering the hall.
”I need to go to the ladies,” Ryn said once they found their seat.
”I'll go with you,” Mika stood up as well.
”No need. It's not even far. You stay here and watch over our food.”
Ryn quickly walked out of the hall. She met up with Jason and Jeremy. Jason was looking quite nervous. He kept pulling his collar.
”Calm down. She's inside,” Ryn told him.
