I CAN T MARRY THIS BASTARD

" How do I look? "

Evangel twirled around for her best friend stretched out on her kings size bed with her attention on the phone in her hand. She just finished getting dressed for her dad's birthday party

Her father turned sixty today and was throwing a huge ass party to commensurate the occasion.

Her father was a wealthy business man known very well in the city. His party will be swimming with all the who is who in the city and as his only heir Evangel knows so many eyes is going to be on her so she has to look her best.

Clarissa strengthened up and turned to look at her, allowing her eyes to journey over her best friend's form.

She started from the caramel silky curls adorning her head, flat aristocratic forehead, perfect carved brows, dazzling pale blue eyes sparkling with dancing stars, long swan neck bearing a silver necklace, a teardrop pendant, her slim trim figure slipped into a gorgeous, plain purple dinner gown with a teasing slit to the mid-thigh revealing a long pale smooth leg that was further stretched out by the four-inch silver Gianvito Rossi sandals on delicate slim feet.

" Gorgeous, stunning, breathtaking........ "

Evangel cracks up at Clarice lots of adjectives.

" Exquisite, Junoesque, resplendent...."

Evangel laughed harder.

" That is enough, I get it, I look good. And where did all these words come from. Read a dictionary today? " Evangel teased as she continued to grin widely at her best friend.

" Nope, you just looked so fantastic that I needed more words to convey it, " Clarrisa winked and laughed when Evangel grew red.

Are you blushing baby, she continued to tease enjoying reeling her best friend up. Evangel has always been so easy to tease.

" No. "

Evangel rolled her eyes at her friend's knowing the little blonde was just messing with her.

Her expression grew serious as she stared back at her best friend.

" Do I really look good? "

There was a little insecurity in her eyes as she asked. Evangel was aware that people think her beautiful but the problem is that she has a hard time believing them.

Clarissa allowed every trace of humor to disappear from her face as she held her best friend gaze.

A deep sadness filled her when she saw the vulnerable look in the brunette eyes, and a murderous feeling followed at the thought of the imbecile responsible.

Ages might have past but her best friend has yet to get over the hurt of her past. Her boyfriend someone she had loved and trusted betrayed her in the worst humiliating way possible and since then her girl has been battling with these insecurities.

" You look good baby. "

She held her eyes conveying the sincerity of her assessment both in words and in look.

A shy smile colored Evangel's lips as she read the truth in her friends eyes. She always trust to get a real answer from Clarissa.

They have been best friends since college and since she has known the blonde she has never tried to lie to her or decieve her like the other girlfriends she has had in the past and that is why their friendship has lasted this long.

Evangel was someone who took trust seriously and once broken can never be regained.

" Thank you. "

" You are welcome. "

" I better be leaving, I am already late as it is, " Evangel picked up her clutch.

" Yeah, as if you have ever been early to anything, " Clarissa teased throwing herself back to the bed.
