The day of Xavier's grandma's birthday had finally arrived. Anastasia's heart fluttered with a mix of excitement and nerves as she prepared to meet both Xavier's family and her own. She could almost feel the weight of the moment pressing down on her, the anticipation buzzing like static in the air.
She applied her makeup with care, adding just a soft touch to enhance her natural features. The subtle shimmer highlighted her cheekbones and made her eyes sparkle, ensuring she would glow beautifully under the lights. She took a deep breath, hoping the extra effort would help her feel more confident amidst the party guests.
She picked up the black dress that the fashion designer had delivered to her the previous day.
The dress flowed gracefully to the ground, its length surpassing her toes. The dress didn't cling too tightly to her waist, it allowed her some space to breathe.
