Andrew rolled his eyes. ‘Then, we’ll
die together.’
‘Andrew,
how could you say that? I don’t want to spoil the box.’ Chioma pouted her mouth.
‘It
doesn’t matter.’
‘No,’said
Chioma. ‘It’s so pretty…’ She removed the lid, and was suprised to see an
exquisite-white rose pattern dress, folded neatly inside the box. She gazed at
it for a moment without a word, then, as if reluntantly, she caught hold of the
dress and lifted it up. ‘Andrew…’
‘The
dress is beautiful. I’m sure it must have cost a fortune.’Andrew walked over
and sat down next to Chioma.
‘As they say, it’s good to be rich.’
‘What brand?’
‘Look.’
She pointed. ‘It’s Dior.’
Andrew
glanced at the luxury- brand name printed on the box. ‘But, I wonder how she
was able to buy the dress?’
‘How else, if not
shopping online. She could have shopped it from a luxurious shopping mall here
in Nigeria. Chisom told me that orders could be made to biggest brands from
overseas. And they would use private planes to send the items to their
customers. According to Chisom, Audrey shopped these items when she was at Star
Restaurant. It must be that this brand is available here in Nigeria.’ She
lifted a shoulder. ‘I’m not used to
online shopping so I don’t know how they do it. I’d rather go to the mall and
do the shopping.’
Andrew
knitted his brow as his eyes caught the box, facing him. He curiously picked up
the box. Then, he opened it. He couldn’t help but blush at the item in the box.
It was a pair of black laced panties.
Chioma was still admiring the dress
when she subconsciously looked over and saw Andrew trying to pick up the
panties from the box. Immediately, she blushed and reached her hand, snatching
the box from him.
