was well done. When she was through she hurried downstairs and met Dare waiting. Talk about a fast dresser, he was looking so handsome her heart started racing fiercely. He turned and saw her.

They were staring at each other when Tiara announced her presence
“I am here, sorry for keeping you waiting”

The drive to the party would have been silent but for Tiara’s constant chatter.

Must she flaunt the fact that her husband wanted her over her. She was so caught up in her thought she didn’t know when they arrived at the party. Tiara immediately latched on to her husband’s arm .
“You wouldn’t mind if he shows me around and be my escort, you know most people here and this is my first time of attending such party” Tiara directed at Lola
