Lucía POV
After eating something, Javier took me to the front of the house where two black cars were waiting for us.

He opened the door to the car on the right and told me to get in. I got inside and sat next to the window, then Javier disappeared.

I tried opening the doors but they were locked. I mentally facepalmed myself for not having my window breaker. Suddenly a figure came towards the car. It was Enzo.

He unlocked the doors then sat inside.

"Might I ask where we are going?" I said., curious of where they were taking me.

"You'll know when we get there, don't worry."

Soon enough, another man took his place in the driver's seat and started the car.

As we went past many places, I looked out of the window to try and take in as many of the sights that I could.

When the car stopped abruptly, I realised we were in the middle of a quiet street. There were small boutiques and bakeries near by. The door opened next to me and I stepped out of the car.

"You'll be going into that boutique," he said, pointing to a little shop, "The owner knows me so say I sent you and she'll sort you out with some clothing items. If you need anything, Javier will be there."

"What about you? Where will you be going?"

"I have business to attend to. I will meet you both here in around two hours." Enzo replied, going back to his cryptic ways.

With nothing else to add, Enzo turned on his heels and walked away with two buff men by his sides.

"I'm not going to wait for you Miss Lucía please come." Javier spoke.

Not replying, I followed him into the stores and kept quiet.

Javier held the door for me and when I stepped inside, my eyes gazed at all the beautiful clothing items they had. They all looked so gorgeous and expensive.

A woman waltzed over to me, her dark hair tied up in a bun and her red lipstick being one of the few colours I saw in her appearance.

"Hi lovely, I'm Aria and I'm the owner of this shop. What can I help you with today?"

"Hi I'm Lucía, Lorenzo sent me?"

"Ah yes of course. My, you are so beautiful"

Her smiled warmed me inside. How was this kind woman a known associate to someone like Enzo?

"Thank you Aria."

Aria was such a sweet woman; she helped me pick out many fancy dresses and shirts and trousers.

Everything looked so amazing that I didn't even think of the price until she said we were finished.

"Now don't worry about the price, Enzo paid me in advance and it covers everything." She said, as she bagged all the clothing items. "Enjoy the clothes honey."

"Thank you so much again." I answered.

Javier stood up from his seat, clearing his throat. He grabbed two of the bags and I carried one.

I glanced at the clock that hung over the door to the shop. It had been two hours exactly and the car was back in its spot as if it had never moved.

Javier put his portion of the bags in the boot of the car and he took mine and positioned it next to the others so that they wouldn't fall.

We got into the car; this time Javier joined me in the back seat.

"Javier I wanted to-"

"If you're planning on apologising for this morning, don't worry about it. The way I talk may seem confusing but my anger got the better of me."

I actually expected him to apologise...

"Let's just put it behind us." He stated.

Should you be apologising too? Whatever.

A few moments of silence passed, then Enzo stepped into the car.

"How was it Miss Lucía?" He asked.

"It was lovely; I haven't treated myself like that in years."

I replied, frowning slightly at my last statement.

It was true, I hadn't been able to do so but it didn't matter.

"Very well then, at least you enjoyed it."

As Enzo's comment hung in the air, the silence settled in as the driver started his journey back to the mansion.
