Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Sometimes, it was disrespectful to wear cheap, shabby clothes. Women of society represented their men. If they were inferiorly dressed, it reflected poorly on their husbands, raising questions of character and financial capability, which was detrimental to business and other social engagements.

It was also why people still did it although it was a luxurious waste of money.

Rather than wearing fakes, some people had resorted to buying branded preloved fashion.

For someone like Danica, it was just another outfit and the cost didn't matter. She would never wear imitations just for the sole purpose of liking it.

Was it just a coincidence?

Alicia didn't think so!

Alicia instinctively felt Frederick had gifted Danica the clothes though they weren't the same size. Perhaps she had altered it from a larger size, or Frederick did.

He had told her that he bought all of them and that he didn't want anyone else wearing the same clothes as her. So, he had lied!

She had felt distraught over her willfulness at the time.

Anger grew within her. A car honked from behind making her step on the gas and maneuvered the vehicle into a side street, all the while keeping watch of the figure in pink and blue. She came out of her daze and was about to turn the car around and leave when she saw the woman in pink and blue standing next to someone tall and equally familiar.

They hugged, whispering in each other's ear, kissed and then turned to walk down the street together.

She couldn't believe her own eyes. Alicia sat, unmoving, for a long time. "Frederick? They..."

How could this be?

She rubbed her eyes and started the car. Then she inched the vehicle forward in the direction where the two had disappeared. Her mind was blank.
