《A Billion Dollar Mistake》Chapter 39 Part 1

~ Doug Larson
With Yasmin on my back, I walk towards the car. She puts her head down on my back, and slowly rocks her feet back and forth. None of us was saying anything, it was that type of silent walk. Thinking back to the proposal, I don't know what I would have done if she have said no. Technically, she was my wife, but for this time, I wanted to make sure it was what she wanted. As heartbreaking as it would have been, I would have let her go if it was her choice, but I would have kept trying to win her over. She made me feel like more than a robot, she made me feel alive, needed and more importantly, she made me feel human. There was no way I would have left her alone. Waiting for her answer, I felt like my heart was about to burst out of my ribcage. I am pretty sure that people on the other side of the world could hear my beating heart, I was nervous as hell, but totally worth it!
"Where are we going now?"She asked just after I opened the car door. she got off my back and got in the car
I turn on the car and smile at her "I have a surprise for you, but we have to go take a shower and change too"
At the mention of the word surprise her eyes got wide from excitement "A surprise? What is it?Tell me"
"If I tell you, it won't be a surprise, now would it?"
"Come on now, just give me a hint?" she blinked, and gave me the puppy face
"You blinking like that makes you look like you are having an eye attack"
"An eye attack?" she asked incrediously, what, she never heard of it?
"Heart attack, only, the organs affected are the eyes, not the heart, so eye attack, get it?"
She stares at me for awhile, shakes her head and sit back on the seat comfortably, this time putting on her seatbelt. Safety first right?
Hearing my phone ring, I pick it up, after looking at the caller ID
"...."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Hanging up the phone, I see her looking at me suspiciously.
"Who was it?" She finally asks after a while
"It was Swa, nothing important" I answered shortly
"yeah and I am a cow" she rolled her eyes
"But you know, you low key look like one right?" I tried to hold my laugh

"Hey, that was rude" she hit me on my arm, her expression was too funny, I couldn't help but laugh like a mad man, she is so cute when she is mad. I shouldn't have laughed because now, imaginary smoke is coming out of her ears. God help me
"Yasmin,"
"Baby"
"Trop mignonne quand tu boudes" I smirk, I see her looking at me curiously, girl, just ask me what it means, I know you don't speak French
"Chicken and fries? Milkshake?" I asked trying to get a reaction from her. Bam, it worked
"Both"
"Oh, now she talks" I grin, after seeing a hint of excitement in her eyes "We are here love"
Parking the car, we both get out, and I see her looking at me questioningly
"YUp, this is a hotel, I already have our clothes delivered to the room"
"Why not just go home and change?"
"Because this is nearer, plus, it's cooler" I shrugged
"If you say so"
I walk in the hotel like I owned the place and went straight for the receptionist. This hotel is a really popular one and they are known for their services
"Hello, Already have a reservation, I just need the key"
"Is that all you need sir? Because our goal is to help you have fun to the maximum during your stay" She batted her eyelashes at me, I give her a boring look before turning around to see Yasmin giving her THAT look already
"The penthouse key please" I held my hand barely looking at her
"Oh Mr. Qureshi, of course, penthouse, yes, the key is here" she gives it to me while biting her lip. What the hell? can't she see the ring on my finger and Yasmin next to me, I didn't need to think more, because she shut her up fast
She looked at me" Darling, why don't you follow me, We are in need of a shower, and some sleep, or nah" she winked at the last part "And for you Linda it is?" she asks the lady who nodded "Go take some cold shower, because you definitely need it" she said taking the key, linking her arm to mine, guiding us to the elevator. Damn my girl is on fireee. So spicy...
After getting to the elevator, she looks at me up and down, oh oh, I am so in trouble
"YOu were just gonna let her flirt with you seriously?" She asked raising her eyebrow

"Baby it was not my fault, but if you want to punish me, go ahead"
"Oh so Mr wants to be punished. Hum, what kind of punishment does he deserve?" She feigned thinking while playing with her bottom lip. What game is she playing? Looks fun
I put my hands on the wall of the elevator, trapping her there "WHat kind of punishment are you thinking about?" I whispered in her ears. I saw her licking her lips
"Well, the punishment you so deserve, if you'll excuse me I am getting off here" she pushed me and got off the elevator. What the hell just happened? I turn around and see her smirk. I am so getting you for this
"You are not gonna escape me this time" I replied walking towards her like a predator in front of it's prey. Let's see what you gonna do now
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Come on now Sebastian, it's not where those balloons are supposed to be"
"Is that so?" He asked raising his eyebrow in a weird way. This man can't be serious for a second. He knows that we are almost out of time, and he is causing us more trouble than help. He is such a big kid
"Whatever" I responded tying my hair in a loose ponytail. Right now, we are at Malik and Yasmin's house trying to organize a little party for Malik and Yasmin second wedding if that is a thing. It's just a little celebration, we have different type of food and the whole family is here. Even my mom flew to come here, and let's just say that right now, I am about to freak out, but thank God Swa is here, and her too is helping as much as she can. Right now, she is decorating the cake she baked in the kitchen. It looks so freaking good, and I never knew she could bake, that girl is full of surprises. We are almost done, and seeing the message that Malik sent on the group chat, I realize it was time to go put on my heels and a really light make up. Much to my dismay, Swa forced me to wear them. Apparently wearing a nice dress and sneakers are not a thing, who knew it? Her apparently considering she's been baking in her I don't know how many inches heels this whole time.
"Tony baby, finish up the rest we gotta go finish getting dressed up" said a smiling Swa, this girl is totally head over heels over this guy, but I guess he is too dumb to see it. Should I try to help them? Nah Sebastian is such an annoying jerk, it's hard to consider him as a an adult, so no, I am not gonna do anything.
Swa dragged me up the stairs as I was shooting him a death glare, already imagining his next response that I knew for sure I would not appreciate.
Trying to put on a mascara, I saw Swa taking out her pretty purple dress, she turns to look at me "Gurrllll, Give the poor guy a break"
I just laugh after hearing her comment "Gurrrl, you are so whipped"
She started blushing out of nowhere "No I'm not"
I grin at her "Yeah, sure"
She rolls her eyes at me and go quickly in the bathroom to change. Why does she run away from me anytime I talk about Sebastian?
Wearing my long white dress, and my black heels, I just put my hair in a cute chignon and braid the front, apply a lip gloss on my lips, I was all set
She comes out too look so gorgeous in a new pair of heels
"How many pair of heels do you have out of curiosity?" I ask her trying my best not to sound too shocked
"Well, to answer your question, few hundreds of them?" she scratched the back of her head. What the hell? few? hundreds? Those two don't even belong in the same sentence
"You know, it's just an obsession of mine. When I am happy, I buy heels, when I am sad, I buy them, when I am stressed, I buy them also. It's a never ending cycle" she added as she was looking at her phone. "They'll be here in two minutes, let's go down and turn off all the lights"
You don't need to tell me twice, I hurry downstairs with her. I am so excited, I am already imagining Yasmin's expression after seeing everyone and everything, even the little omar was wearing a suit and tie. Everyone was dressed in a classy way, and just imagining her in the dress we chose for her, she definitely will look smoking hot. I can't wait to see her, and just when I was thinking about it, I saw a message on the group chat. It says 2mn. Perfect, it's time to put everything else in place, and turn off all the lights. She is about to walk and I can't wait to see her face.
