Chapter 09

Good morning princess Luiza she said leaning on the table.

Isabella: Good morning aunty I said sitting on it

I sat down at the table, my mother had not gone down for breakfast yet, it seems that she wasn't going to work early as usual today, and my father had just left.

I had breakfast with the company of Aunt Luh and then went to school.

Isabela: Eduardo is leaving today right? I had forgotten,” she said, dissatisfied and dismayed.

Rafaela: let's say goodbye to him today at the airport at 5:30 pm, shall we girls?

Paula: we shall

Isabella: okay, so you pick me up there

Rafaela: Okay. Last night we met, he had sent me a message and said that he wanted to see me and of course I went, unfortunately I couldn't stay to long but I could enjoy it a little, then when I went back home, I called him and we kept talking until dawn

Paula: that so sweet girlfriend. so that's why someone's dying face two days ago has come back to life. She said and we laughed a lot at her comment

Rafaela: girls, seriously he is so cute, loving and understanding. I'm not lucky though, I get a boy like him and he lives on the other side of the country, aff

-Good morning students, shall we start the class? The teacher said as he entered the room

[…]

At the end of class I came back home listening to music at the maximum and singing like crazy, when I arrived, I went straight to lunch, my parents were together at the table, we talked, but they only talk about work, thus, isolated myself from the conversation, when I finished, I went up to my bedroom, I showered and lay on bed.

Message On:

Nicolas: what's up?

Isabella: Yes

Nicolas: Do you have any plans tonight?

Isabella: as far as I know, I don't, why?

Nicolas: Do you want to go out with me?

Isabella: Yes yes

Nicolas: at 19:30 then ok?

Isabella: Ok. You won't kidnap me, will you?

Nicolas: haha, no, don't worry

Isabella: Where are we going?

Nicolas: A place I usually go, you will like it, relax.

Isabella: Um, I hope so, I'm curious now. How is this place?

Nicolas: It's a secret snoopy place I'm not going to tell you anything.

Isabella: Oh, you're mean

Nicolas: If I tell you it won’t be funny, it's a surprise.

Isabella: I love surprises.

Nicolas: even better. I have to take off now, see you at night, okay? kisses.

Isabella: Okay, kisses.

There I was all smiling, thinking about a thousand and one things and ways of what this meeting(date) would be like, after a few minutes I ended up sleeping, which was not on my plans. When I woke up, I got startled by the time, I remembered that I was going to meet up the girls at the airport, I looked at the clock and it was already 4:45 pm, I went straight to the bathroom, I took a quick shower, I wore high-waist jeans, a printed tank top, fixed a bun in my hair, I put on mascara, put on a black sneaker, grabbed my bag and ran to the door, the girls were already waiting for me leaning against the car.

Rafaela: it was about time Isabella! She said as she saw me arriving.

Isabella: Calm down darling, I'm here now, don't freak out please, and we got in the car

We were talking and waiting for Eduardo's flight, and when it arrived, we said goodbye to him, he and Rafa had a long goodbye kiss and soon after he took off.

Paula: are you going to eat girls

Isabella: I'm really hungry.

Rafaela: Will you come with us Marcelo?

Marcelo: No, girls, it won't work, I have to leave.

Isabella: oh, so it's okay, we'll catch up later

We left the airport and went for a snack, settled down and placed orders

Isabella: Guys you don't know, breaking news, Nicolas asked me out tonight I said cheerfully

Paula: um, you accepted, right?

Isabella: Sure.

Paula: sister, I think he's into you.

Isabella: is he?

Rafaela: due to the fact that he asked you out, he must be really into you

Isabella: what if he really likes me? What would I do girls?

Rafaela: Well, what would you do, girl, that's up to you. Enjoy it for he is charming and seems to be worth it

Paula: sister, I guess if you like him back too you have to take the opportunity to get to know him better

Rafaela: agreed, let everything happen naturally.

Isabella: What would I be without you two huh? I said hugging them.

I got home at 6:00 pm, went up to the bedroom and straight to my closet and picked out some clothes to wear, I chose a yellow dress, a delicate necklace, and a not too high heels, left everything separated on the bed and trotted with a towel to the bathroom. I decided to let my hair loose, wore a makeup with a light shade and chose a winy lipstick, and there I was ready for my first date with Nicolas

Message On:

Isabella: (Future) Dear Doctor Nicolas, I am ready for our first date

Nicolas: Haha, I'm on my way then.

5 minutes later I heard the noise of a car honking, I look out the window and yes, it was him, I open the door shyly and he came towards me, he managed to look even prettier.

Nicolas: Good evening girl, did you see Isa around? He asked trying to be serious and pretending that he didn't recognize me.

Isabella: Nicolas! I smiled

Nicolas: Oh, here you are, my bad, I almost didn't recognize you with all this wonderfulness, I haven't seen you beautifully produced this way yet he said smiling, extending his hand and kissing on my cheek, Isabella you're amazing

Isabela: Thank you, you look very nice too

Nicolas: I was just trying to keep up with my partner, but I would say that at the most I was able to get is being tidy, he says making me smile and then he opened the car door for me

Nicolas: you are different, did you change your hair style He asked in the car.

Isabella: I dyed it; does it look good?

Nicolas: oh, it's very good, it suits you even more.

Isabella: Thank you I said with a smile on my face, getting a little bit cocky

Nicolas: so, tell me, how was your day?

Isabella: oh, it was pretty normal, but it was a good day. What about you?

Nicolas: putting college aside, it was great

After about 17 minutes driving, we arrived

Nicolas: Okay, we're here, let me grab this guitar already he said, parking the car and picking up the instrument that was in the back seat.

Isabella: Looky looky, you brought a guitar

Nicolas: yes, aren't you going to sing to me, he winks with a smile

Now close your eyes, no peeking, you heard young lady, he said, opening the car door and grabbing my hand.

Isabella: oh, not even a peek? I asked smiling with my eyes closed.

Nicolas: None he said and I opened an eye quickly just for some fun.

Nicolas: I'll cover your eyes now! he said putting his hands on my eyes.

Isabella: But what if I stumble?

Nicolas: No, you won't, I won't let you

Isabella: Okay then. But if I stumble and fall it is on you, I said smiling while walking with my eyes closed.

Nicolas: Okay fully responsible

We walked a little to the place because the car ended up being a little far

Nicolas: we're set, he said, taking his hands off my eyes and I was surprised, it was a green place full of trees and on each tree there were several light bulbs hanging, and there was a river, you couldn't see much, but the sky, the moon light was reflecting on the waters making everything look even magical

How beautiful I gasped super excited while he put a towel on the lawn under a huge tree

Nicolas: yes, he said already sitting down I love this place.

Isabella: well so do I, said, sitting next to him. I Would like to take it home and put it in my backyard I said smiling

Nicolas: if you could take it, you would certainly see me there, right

Isabella: do you always come here?

Nicolas: always

Isabella: it's so calm and peaceful, I like that.

Nicolas: during the day it is even more beautiful. God is wonderful, thankfully in a world full of chaos there is still a little piece of land that gives you peace.

Isabella: Yeah, thank God, I said looking at him while he was staring at the sky.

We were silent looking at the starry sky, the moon was perfect

Did you like the surprise? He said, breaking the silence.

Isabella: I Loved it

Nicolas: here, he handed me the guitar, Now choose a song

Isabella: I thought you were going to serenade me, I said impulsively and we smiled, Can I choose any song?

Nicolas: yes, any song you like

Isabella: then ok. I'll just say that I love sweet romance music, okay?

Nicolas: typical

I was a little thoughtful about the song I was going to sing, at first, I was super embarrassed, but I took my eyes off him and preferred to imagine that I was alone on the porch or in the bathroom, he just looked at me waiting. I decided to sing an international song, just a little bit of a song that brings me a peace. And calamity

Nicolas: Wow, what a beautiful voice you have Isa. You sing very well he commented gulping and totally surprised

Isabella: thanks, you, I'll give you the guitar now

He started singing a beautiful and totally new song for me, but what impressed me most was not the romantic lyrics, it was his voice, the way he sang, I admit I was fascinated, I don't know, but I think I even drooled. I was speechless, he sang with so much serenity, looking at me in the eye every once in a while, I didn't even know how to say what I felt there, but that melody enchanted me.

Isabella: How sweet, what a beautiful voice you have? I said with my mouth open, and he smiled a lot

Nicolas: you are the sweet one, thank you

Isabella: do you sing a lot, have you sung in public?

Nicolas: at college events, and I sing at church sometimes, what about you?

Isabella: I never sang in public

Nicolas: you should do it one day

We lay on the towel on the lawn and stared at the starry moonlit sky.

Isabella: the sky is magnificent, I said while looking up.

Nicolas: it is perfect, in fact everything that God does is perfect.

We stayed there for a long time, talking about the sky, in fact we were asking questions that only God could answer.

Nicolas: what would you like to have for dinner with my lovely company Isabella Fercondine tonight?

Isabella: do you like sushi?

Nicolas: I do, a lot, good choice for a romantic date

Isabella: I loved this place so much that I would eat anything here, or do you prefer to go to a fancy restaurant?

Nicolas: Oh really? I would bother paying for a very expensive sushi boat for you in an expensive restaurant, he smiled But if you prefer we can stay here and postpone the expensive restaurant for another day

Isabella: I think the expensive restaurant can wait for another day

Nicolas: are you sure?

Isabella: I'm sure

Nicolas: I'm going to order a delivery then and we eat right here

He ordered a sushi boat and while the order was on Its way, we talked a little more, the date was exceeding my expectations of perfection
