Chapter twenty four

Mavis stood before the apartment door, her heart pounding with anticipation. She examined the apartment number once more to be sure, she retrieved a small mirror from her purse to adjust her makeup, and smoothed down her hair. After taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, she knocked on the door.

Emin opened the door and as soon as he saw her, his eyes took notice of her overall appearance. Her pink silk dress hugged her figure perfectly and matched the pink blush on her cheeks. He smiled at her as he took in her presence.

Mavis blushed as she noticed his lingering looks before hugging him and wrapping her arms around his neck in an embrace.

She heard some noises from the inside, recognising Michelle’s laughter. She pulled away from Emin, “you invited Michelle?”

“You met before. She likes you.”

“I don’t even talk to her. You didn’t invite Miran.”
