DAY 5

"So Mia I think Daphne should help you look your best. Ok?"

I stopped walking as I turned to face him.

"Who is Daphne?
"She's a stylist I know who owes me a favor."

"Why in the world will I need a stylist Jason?" I said looking at him like he was insane.

"Well..... because you need to look really good Mia." He said rubbing his hand on his temples.

"I won't argue with you...I am pretty sure you already called her."
"Yes I already did."
"Then why are asking for my opinion? You can do whatever you please." I raised my hands up in a surrender style.

"Are you mad at me Mia?"
"Why don't you answer your damn question!" I hissed and banged the door of my room.

I know I was being childish, but I couldn't help it. He already called her without my consent.

I hate him for this.

Oh no, you don't, you are just mad at him. My inner mind told me.

I just lay on the bed, no sooner had I closed my eye to sleep when I heard a knock on the door.
Who can that be? I thought as I walked to the door to open it.

I opened the door, only to reveal a young woman. She's probably a few years older than me.

"Hey, I'm Daphne your stylist." She said stretching out her hands.

Well, I can't be rude and besides, it wasn't her fault I wasn't told. It was that Jackass Jason's fault, and to think I am going out with him this evening makes me red with anger.

"Hi I'm Mia and I'm pleased to meet you," I said, taking her outstretched hands.
"So can I come in please?"
"Sorry....forgive my manners," I said opening the door wider.

"Wow what a nice place you got."
"Ermm..... Thanks, I guess. I mean is Jason's place, not mine."
"Well that's ok, it's still nice by the way. The view here is better than Jason's." She said as she sat on the bed.

She's been to Jason's room?
Who is she?

I don't why, but I felt a little pang of jealousy. He's just my friend and I can't be jealous.
Just stupid hormones that's all.
I thought.

Curiosity got the better part of me.

"So who are you to him?"
"I was expecting your question, I saw the wheels turning in your head." She said smiling widely.
"Ohhh.... sorry. You don't have to answer if you don't want to." I said quickly, not wanting to hear she was one of Jason's one nightstand.

Why would Jason bring his one-night stand to be your stylist Mia?
My inner voice taunted me.

"I am his cousin sadly." She said while faking tears.

I was about to say something when the door to my room was opened.

"Hey Dolphin." Jason greeted his cousin playfully.

"Don't you ever call me that again Jason." She said glaring playfully.
"It fits your personality really well, how can I stop?" He said smiling smugly.

Daphne just reached out and tapped the back of his head.

Atta girl! I cheered her inwardly.

"Ouch, what's with you and Mia?
You never keep your hands to yourself." He said rubbing his head.
"At least we both can see you're a douchebag." She said smirking.

I wanted to smile at Jason, but I remembered I was angry at him.

"Mia, I am sorry," Jason said looking sad and regretful.
"I am still not talking to you. You can take your leave now." I said pointing to my door.

He just looked at me sadly and went out of the room.

"That was quite a scene, so what did my silly cousin do?"
"Apparently he didn't ask for my opinion before he fixed an appointment with you. I was angry before but you are a cool person to hang out with." I admitted sheepishly.

"Thank you for the compliment, my cousin may be annoying sometimes but he is a caring jerk. You got to forgive him, Mia."
"I already did, besides am going out with him this night. I just don't want to talk to him right now, so he'll know he should get my consent next time."
"That's good......girl power," Daphne said holding her hand up for a high five which I returned happily.

We chatted about so many things, that's where I learned so many of Jason's childhood silliness that I was going to use as a tool to annoy him later.

Daphne lived with Jason and his grandfather until she got old enough to move to her own apartment.

"So what of Jason's parents?"
"That's not my place to tell Mia, Jason will tell you when he's ready." She looked at me sadly.
"Well....... that's no problem." I said shrugging my shoulders nonchalantly.

"Wow...how time flies. It's six pm already." She said glancing at her wristwatch.
"Yeah....but it was fun talking to you."
"I could say the same. Let's get you ready and show everyone what it is to have Daphne Powers as your stylist." She said clapping her hands enthusiastically.

I got to admit Daphne knew what she was doing. My make up was flawless and the glossy lipstick made my lips look fuller.
I showed her the gown I bought but she said it won't be good for the birthday party.

She took out another gown from the suitcase she brought.

"No Daphne I can't wear that, it's mid-thigh." I protested.
"Trust me hon, people are going to dress more slutty than this." She explained.
"But......" She cut me off.
"Red is your color, Mia. Take this red heels and change inside the closet." She said handing me what looked like a death trap.
"I will fall, Daphne, it's way too high." I protested again.
"No you won't, now shoo and go change."

I changed in the closet and checked myself out in the mirror.
I got to admit I looked hot, the dress was a killer and the heels made my legs look longer.

"Here I am," I said when I stepped back into the room.
"Wow......You look so hot." She said smiling widely.
"Thanks a lot," I said smiling shyly.
"Well let's take a picture. I will use it for the cover of one of my magazines." She said taking out her camera.
"Daphne I don't think I look that good."
"Yes you do, now smile for the camera."

I took a couple of stand-alone pictures and some selfies with Daphne.

After we were done with the pictures, we hurried downstairs where Jason was already waiting.

He looked really breathtaking but I was still mad at him. I thought to maintain the scowl on my face.

As I was going down the stairs, Jason couldn't keep his eyes off me.

"Wow!" was the only thing Jason could say when I got downstairs.
"You don't look bad yourself," I said nonchalantly.

Jason noticing I was still angry at him started apologizing.

"I am sorry Mia, I promise it won't happen again."
"Well.....I forgive you this time. Don't let it happen again." I said sounding stern.
"I promise it won't."
"Well then let's go."

Daphne came downstairs hurriedly saying she was late for her appointment.
"Well bye lovelies, see you later. I got to run." She said dashing to the door.

Jason led me outside the house, only for me to see a limousine.
Just how much money does he have?
As we got closer, I saw his secretary close to limousine.

"What's she doing here?" I whispered to Jason.
"I am signing a contract at the party that's why."
"Ohh" was the only thing I could utter.

When we got there Philip opened the back door for us.
Jason got in and Felicia was about to enter as well when Jason's voice stopped her.

"Felicia you sit at the front, Mia is sitting here."

Felicia just glared at me and matched to the front seat.
One would think she had hots for Jason.

I entered the back seat next to Jason.

"Jason" I called quietly as I noticed Felicia still throwing deadly glares at me.
"Yes Mia." He answered turning his body so he could face me.
"I think your secretary hates me." "Felicia?.... She'll get over it." He said waving his hand in dismissal.
