Secretary Darren who is guarding Mary is Diana, and her deputy who is with Lily is currently named Ophelia.
Although her name sounds like from the royal era, but this one woman is indeed quite graceful even when you call her, she will look at her pretty head. Lily admires.
So when Ophelia chooses the dress for this once-a-year meeting, Lily entrusts everything to the woman. Lily believes that with Ophelia's choice, whatever she chooses will surely be charming.
Ophelia's choice fell on a sparkling purple-colored dress. The shoulder is very transparent. It was not Lily's style once, but considering that this event would be attended by big people, it was certain that this dress would suit her. Classy and graceful.
Paying off with the black card Darren gave her, Lily followed Ophelia in silence. Wherever the woman went, Lily would tail like a man afraid of losing his way.
For information, Lily has never set foot in the largest mall in Manila. For 6 years he loved to shop at the traditional market only, because it was familiar with him while in the village. Darren himself never complained when the food ingredients he ate came from the market, because it reminded him when he still had nothing like now.
Ophelia and Lily went to the shoe store. Looking around with a look full of admiration, Lily's eyes were exactly that of a little boy who was looking at the gulali through the shop's glass. He had never seen anything this beautiful. So shiny and certainly drain the wallet.
“Lily, you prefer what strappy heels to wear directly?”
Lily moved on from her admiration. He thought for a moment. “Yang simple only.”
Ophelia sighed with a smile. He had no idea where his boss knew this woman in front of him from. Lily is so simple and doesn't know much about women's things. She was too mediocre compared to the women in their company who were ready to bend their knees to get to know Darren more deeply.
As Lily requested, Ophelia's choice fell on pale pink pastel-colored shoes with beautiful rose carvings on her heels. Simple yet elegant. If Lily still wanted something simpler, it couldn't have happened. This is a mall, not a traditional market.
“How about this?” Ophelia shows her chosen heels.
Weighing doubtfully, Lily finally nodded.
After paying again. Ophelia continued to bring the lily to the jewelry store, then the bag, and lastly at the salon.
The owner is an eccentric looking man. His body is squeaky, wearing a tight Hawaiian-style clothes, jeans are also tight red, and do not forget his bald head is so shiny managed to attract the attention of Lily. With its presence, this modern salon so memorable retro.
“Include Lily, she's Julia.” Ophelia.
Lily poked her arm towards Julia to shake hands, but the man chose to shout before hugging Lily instead. Lily held her breath as Julia's long arm squeezed her. Although this is a check, but the power is really not playing. It feels like Lily was hugged like this, but forgot when and where.
Julia let go of her embrace then held onto both of Lily's shoulders. “You still remember me?”
Lily blinked, remembering. But it didn't work.
Julia had a sad expression. “You are!” Then clench Lily's forehead. “You forgot me?! You forgot the hairdresser's salon next door lady Puri?” Julia squeaks childishly.
Only then did Lily's eyes widen. “Mother Fairy?!”
“Aaa!” Julia exclaimed enthusiastically. She thought Lily had forgotten about it.
Once upon a time, when Lily hitchhiked at Darren's house, there was a barbershop just a few blocks away near the house of Puri's mistress, an apple salesman.
It was Lily's turn to tightly hug Julia's body. “Now Fairy Godmother is glowing, yes! Whiteer. I was curious, but from the beginning it was no stranger to the same style.”
Lily laughed anxiously at Julia's change. He was the ugliest one. Already skinny dry, loud talk instead of playing, dull black again. But now it is different, although it remains so flat, and the sound does not change, but the skin becomes brighter.
“Mother Fairy how are you all this time? Is this salon yours?”
Julia blushed, for a long time she had not heard that call often. Once a person is, he must use a classy name. But hearing that call again, it felt like he was nostalgic.
Julia nodded. “Iya. Nice, right? Much cleaner and bigger than it used to be when it still lives in the complex.”
Lily nodded in spirit. Proud of Julia's achievement.
On the other side.
Ophelia who had heard their conversation had fallen silent. He cleared his throat briefly, “You've known before?” Ask curiously.
Lily and Julia looked over. “Iya, 6 years ago,” Julia replied.
Ophelia smiled unexpectedly. Hours followed by Lily like a lost child, only this time Lily smiled. There was probably at least one person he considered to be family in a foreign place of this size.
“Really? Then we just go straight, how?” Ophelia suggested, shorten the time because it was already 2 p.m.
Julia glanced at Lily, then glanced at Ophelia. “So today my customer is Lily? Not Darren or you?”
Ah, ja. Usually when Ophelia to this place, she will cut her hair every month, Darren has also become her permanent servant, even Darren himself who introduced this salon to his works since a year ago, count-up promotions for former old neighbors.
Ophelia. “For today the customer is Lily. Tonight there will be a meeting once a year.” Ophelia explained in the back as Julia took Lily to a chair.
Ophelia looked back in surprise. “Meeting once a year? Isn't Darren often going alone?” Then go back to Lily again to check the scalp and hairstyle that fits for this once a year meeting.
“This time she is with Lily,” Ophelia replied as she opened the magazine back there.
Focusing on her work afterwards, Julia paid no heed to anyone anymore. She washes Lily's hair deftly. His skills are increasing.
After washing her hair, she dries it. During that time, Juli ordered two employees to give a manicure to Lily's nails.
Lily is really pampered, she likes it. Although it's the first time I've tried, Lily's comfortable. Ah, if he could every day like this. Hehehe, it must be fun.
However …
“He fell asleep?!”
Julia was surprised with laughter in the end. He's only been taking care of another customer for a few tens of minutes, but Lily's asleep instead? He even smiled in his sleep. Wow, this woman is something.
