100 Days With Mr Romero

“Hurry up Emma. ” Pearl gave out a friendly scream to her daughter who was getting dressed upstairs. It was around 10am.

“In a minute mother. ” Emma screamed back at her mother who smiled and decided to wait by seating on the couch in the living room.

Ever since Emma returned to New York, she had been busy scheduling meetings and attending conferences. Her parents always marveled at her new love for business and her desire to invest and earn more.

Last night, Emma told her mother that she was taking a day off. They decided to tour the city, go shopping and have a mother daughter hangout.

Emma had missed her mother and she felt the day off was necessary. It will enable them catch up on lost moments she had thought.

“I’m ready mother. ” Emma said while running down the stairs.

“Careful, you might fall. ” warned her mother.

Emma looked at her boot heels, smiled and carefully joined her mother in the living room. She was wearing a tight black beans trousers with a navy blue crop top.

“You look beautiful as always Emmalia. ” complemented her mother.

She smiled again and replied saying “Thanks. ”

“You guys have fun. ” screamed Emma’s father from upstairs.

They chuckled, promised to have fun and went out to meet the driver who was waiting for them outside.

“Where to? ” asked the driver after both women were seated in the car.

“Take us to the largest shopping mall in the city. ” requested Emma while her mother smiled.

“I know just the right place. ” the driver said and started the car engine.

“I don’t think I need any shopping Emma. ” her mother said.

“Oh come on mother. ” hesitated Emma.

“I will personally pick dresses for you today. ” volunteered Emma.

“Once we go into that shopping mall, you just leave everything to me. ” offered Emma while her mother broke out laughing.

She missed shopping with Emma. She recounted how Emma will prefer to choose dresses for her rather than allow her choose herself. Sometimes, they will argue over the choice of a dress and Pearl will remind Emma who would be wearing the dress.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

The driver parked the car outside the mall and opened the door for the women who quickly stepped out.

“I’ll be waiting inside the car. ” he told them before they headed to the shopping mall.

Pearl held her daughter’s left hand while Emma held her Louis Vuitton purse in the other hand. Together, they entered the shopping mall.

Just as Pearl expected, Emma selected dresses for her and all she did was try them on and check it out before the large show glass. Pearl enjoyed every moment of the activity and Emma made her laugh really hard when she offered her a sexy lingerie.

“I’m too old for this please. ” she told Emma chuckling.

After that, they shopped for some groceries and bought two pairs of designer shoes for Emma’s dad.

“He’ll love it. ” attested Pearl.

They came out of the large shopping mall after spending about two hours. The driver ran to them and collected the shopping bags. He carefully placed it in the car trunk.

“Where to next? ” he asked after they were seated in the car.

“Raspberry Spa. ” replied Emma’s mother and he drove them there.

Emma and Pearl excitedly walked into the spa and in few minutes, they were laying faced down side side getting a massage.

“Aghr! I needed this. ” exclaimed Emma while the massage was ongoing.

“Thanks mother. ” she said closing her eyes and feeling relaxed.

Pear smiled and replied.

“You are welcome. We all needed this. ”

After their massage session, Emma and her mother had their finger nails well manicured. They bought some skin care products and left the place. It was noon already.

“We should head back home now. ” suggested Pearl.

“Remember your grand opening is later today. ” she reminded Emma.

“There’s enough time for that. Why don’t we visit the park first. ” Emma requested and the loyal driver immediately took the route to the recreational park.

Emma and her mother identified a spot in the shade and sat on the clean natural grass carpet. Francis the driver had bought them some snacks and drinks. He then set it before them and returned to the car.

Emma and her mother ate and talked about lots of things. They talked about the weather, how the park has changed and how eventful Emma’s grand opening might be. They left the spot and headed back home. It was almost evening and Emma needed to prepare for her grand opening scheduled for 7pm.

The bar Emma had just secured was renovated to her taste. It had a bold inscription titled LIA’S BAR on the entrance. The whole place was decorated with gallantry and guests were already arriving.

Emma finally arrived with her parents and Peter. She greeted some of the guests, waved at some and stood in front of the bar.

She was feeling proud and excited that she is officially launching her own bar. Her assistant passed to her a large scissors and Emma cut the huge ribbon tied around the bar entrance. The crowd clapped and cheered while Emma smiled and bowed. She then hugged her parents and invited the people inside the building.

Emma first walked in and the people followed her. The bar staff were neatly dressed in their new uniform and the people began to settle. Some were playing games in the round table, others were busy at the bar stand taking shots while some exchanged pleasantries. A soft music was playing in a low tune.

Emma climbed the stage and the loud conversations began to wither immediately.

“Thank you. ” she told the bar tender who passed the microphone to her.

“Ladies and Gentlemen. ” she began.

“I welcome you all to the official grand opening of LIA’S bar. ” she said and they clapped.

“Today, entertain yourselves and have fun till dawn. It’s all free. Courtesy of the grand opening. ” she told the people who screamed and cheered in excitement. Some stood up and applauded her.

“LIA’S bar will offer best services that no bar can ever give you in this city. There will be more branches to be opened. ” she assured the people.
