Fran, the owner, put up two recliners side by side and called one of her best employees as they began working on Samuel and Elise. Samuel didn't specify the detail, but she, too, never asked; he only asked her to make Elise look like a princess.
Lucie also sat in the corner of the room, making arrangements for their clothes, she knew Salon didn't have the kind of dress Samuel was looking for, but through her connection, she assured him that it would be ready by the time they finished.
They were half an hour into it when Samuel received a call. Lucie tactfully reached for his coat and presented him with his phone. His face was plastered with a face mask which cucumber slices covering his eyes, obscuring his vision.
" Who is it?" He asked, and for it, he got a squeeze on his fingers. Elise was determined to keep holding hands to not let him out of her sight.
" It's fine, Elise; I am right here. Lucie?" He assured Elise before asking again.
" Ah, it's; it's an unknown number?"
" Answer it and put it on speaker." Samuel could guess who it was since not many people had his personal number.
" You better not move your face muscle, or else I will redo the procedure," Fran warned him of the consequences.
" Madam, can't you be.." The other stylist tried to tell her to be tactful. They had to acknowledge that he was too special of a customer for her to take this rudely too!
" I understand. Hello?" Samuel answered the phone.
" Hi, honey~ Did you miss me?" Mayra said coquettishly over the phone. Her voice was already attractive, but making it more sexy was a crime!
" Mayra! You are on the speaker." Samuel informed her immediately, sensing she was going to get more vulgar. She really hadn't changed that side of her.
" Ah, you really hate your wife that much... I just want some-"
""Ohooo"" It didn't escape ladies' ears as they howled in unison.
" Can you get to the point already?" Samuel was embarrassed. Was it really a good idea for him to mingle with this little devil?
" Hehe, alright, I will save it for the bedroom, but how is Elise?" She said something preposterous without a care in the world.
" She is fine. We are getting ready for a fun day, so don't wait up."
" What? I was hoping we could have lunch together, but...fine, but you have to come pick me up after work."
" This..." Samuel looked around; everyone had their ears perked up, listening to their conversation; it was better for him to just do as she said for now, " Alright, I will be there."
" Good, and don't forget. I love you!" She hung up immediately before Samuel could scold her.
" Geez, this girl..." Samuel vowed to have a tough talk whenever he met her husband. He had the right to know!
" Madam? Don't you find that voice familiar?" The stylist whispered.
" Hmm? Not that I think about it, so does the name..."
" Wait! Hold on a minute..... Mr Samuel, may I know who you were speaking to?" Fran directly asked.
" Madam, you can't do that!"
" I don't know if she would like that," Samuel said humbly, trying to get to the bottom.
" Is her name Mayra? Tall brunette with long legs and excellent figure?" Fran tried to describe her as best as she could.
" And her eye colour is cat-like? I mean, peculiar?" The stylist added.
" Are you perhaps talking about Mayra Zulfiqar? She is my wife." Samuel acted bashfully.
" What? But.." Fran exclaimed.
She only knew her briefly when Mayra posed as a model for a few months during some charity event. It was partly because Fran insisted on it, as she thought her figure and appearance were too much of a waste to not contribute to the fashion world.
But after they finished the event, Mayra completely abandoned her modelling aspirations. Fran had never begged more than when she tried to change Mayra's mind. Before she could do anything, she found out Mayra got married, but she was sure it was not Samuel, as he was barely an adult when it happened a few years back.
But now she is hearing him say she was her wife? Fran also took a good look at Elise; no matter how she looked at her, the kid was over three years. She was confused as she had few dealings with the married couple after that, but they never mentioned anything about a child?
" But what about her previous marriage?" Fran asked after calming down.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm " Oh, are you familiar with them?" Samuel probed further.
" Yeah, I have met them a few times during events. They looked happy, as far as I know. Especially her partner who works for the government." She didn't get into specifics, but Samuel was elated to hear it.
" Is that so? It's no wonder she feels trapped in her marriage." Samuel sighed and paused for a moment.
" We were college sweethearts, both minors, but that didn't stop us from having a wild whirlwind romance. It was only for a few months, but those were the happiest days of my life until it all came crashing down." Samuel sighed again.
" This is the first time I am hearing about this; what happened?" Fran asked with utmost curiosity.
Samuel looked toward Elise for a few moments, and that was enough. They made their own conclusion, but it didn't stop there. Samuel went on and on about how their parents disagreed and how it would be disgraceful if anyone found out about it.
They had to stay apart for years until Samuel became an adult, but now that he had come to rekindle their relationship, she already married someone else. He was frustrated, but he was convinced she still loved him!
" By the way she talked, I think there is still a chance." The stylist teared up, listening to their beautiful story. It was like some romance novel, and she wanted a happy ending for them!
" She was cheerful but not because of me but because she gets to clean her hands off our little princess." Samuel harrassed Elise's cheeks showing his love.
" That! That's disgraceful!" Fran was furious too! How could a mother throw away her child like this?
Seeing their sad and furious expressions, Samuel knew his plan was successful. It was a cruel prank, but that's what she deserved as a punishment for openly seducing him while being married! He was sure her husband would somehow find out about it, and that would be a great conversation starter when they met!
" Please! Don't tell anyone about it. I know what she did was wrong, but I don't want to see her hurt." Samuel pleaded, which hurt their hearts even more! Fran began thinking if she still had their contact information, she couldn't let it end like this!
