Episode 14

The next day

Alana

I had a lot of fun yesterday, but now I need to focus on what's ahead

I've been thinking. I'm going to take advantage of the rest of this week off to do some etiquette courses - table manners, posture, wines, all those things that I have no clue about and that rich people like.

So, as Benjamin had managed to change her shift and even got the dean to give her the rest of the week off, she took the opportunity and bought the online courses, as she urgently needed to learn.

Isis is calling

Alana: Hi beautiful

Isis: Hi, girl. We won't leave you alone, he's going to invite you to dinner, we'll be there

Alana smiles - Thank you

Isis: What are you doing, Alana?

Alana: Studying

Isis: Seriously?

Alana: Yes, send me a picture

Isis: You're not normal (laughs)

Sometime later, she receives a message from Benjamin.

Benjamin: Hi, my future wife

Alana: Hi, future husband

Benjamin: I'll pick you up at 8 p.m. for dinner with my friends, is that okay?

Alana: Of course

Benjamin: Send me your address

Alana: I'll send it later

Benjamin: I'm quite curious, may I know what you're doing?

Alana: Hmm, curious or controlling?

Benjamin: Wow, you're difficult

Alana thinks: I have to at least get along with him, being friends would be good. So, I'll try to be nicer

Alana sends a picture of papers, pens, a computer and some books

Alana: Studying, Mr. Curious

Benjamin: Good to know that I have an intelligent wife.

Kiss, I have a meeting now

Alana thinking: And me with this.

Alana: Okay, great meeting then.

Benjamin

She's intelligent, she provokes me, she annoys me and I don't know why I insist on talking to her. Actually, I've never asked a woman what she was doing. And I've already asked her twice, it can only be the craziness of this marriage thing.

Benjamin was great at business; his meetings were almost always very successful.

Alana

I send a message to Isis, she said she would be at dinner, so I decide to ask about the clothes I should wear

Alana: Hey Isis, since you mentioned dinner, can you tell me what I should wear?

Isis: Hey, kill him (laughs)...wear a dress above the knee with high heels, that black one, and tells the details...

Alana: Okay, can I tie my hair up?

Isis: No!!! Don't even think about it, let that beautiful hair down

Alana: But I don't like to attract attention and when I walk around with my hair down I do!

Isis: You've always been beautiful Alana, you just didn't dress well and you also struggled to look ugly with your hair tied up, ridiculous old-fashioned glasses, baggy pants and blouses and no makeup, and even so, you still got some compliments.

Now imagine, makeup, hair down, dress, heels, accessories and lots of smiles, Mr. Benjamin better watch out

Alana: Stop being silly!

Isis: Let me tell you, Benjamin is already over thirty, but Alana, the guy is a catch, rich and single, or he was (laughing). Well known in all the nightclubs, famous restaurants and those things, wherever the guy goes there are a lot of women throwing themselves at him, as well as many that he's already hooked up with, from famous models, actresses to waitresses, so be prepared for that.

Alana: Hmm, this is not going to be easy

At 6:30 pm I started getting ready because I still didn't have much choice, so it was better to start earlier. At 7:30 pm I sent the address to Mr. Thinks-He's-All-That, and worse, he may be.

Benjamin: Okay, as soon as I arrive, I'll let you know to come down and I'll wait for you at the building's entrance, can you?

Alana: Yes

Message from Benjamin

7:55 pm, I've arrived, I'm waiting for you at the entrance

Alana: I'm coming down

Benjamin

When she arrived at the entrance, wow, how beautiful this girl or woman or lady is, this hair, this body, these looks and these lips are going to drive me crazy, Benjamin holds back.

Alana

I arrive at the entrance, wow this guy is hot, if I had met him another way I could have fallen for him.

Benjamin: Hi, you look beautiful, Alana

Alana smiling: Thank you, that was kind

Benjamin opens the car door for her to get in and they head to the restaurant.

Alana thinking: Wow, what a good-smelling man, what a car he has, wow! And how well he drives, this must be a test, God

Benjamin thinking: Seriously, her smile and that look fascinate me, this is crazy.

They spoke very little on the way, only about trying to get along to make life easier for both of them. Benjamin also said that the guys and Gabi and Isis knew, so they could help them in a way.

Alana

When we arrived, I could see that he attracted a lot of attention, everyone greeted him, especially the women.

Benjamin

When we arrived, I already imagined that he would attract more attention for being accompanied by the one who was difficult to get, I usually went out accompanied, and honestly, she was beautiful and very different from my usual type. We were holding hands, and how soft her hands were, I even imagined them on other parts of my body.

My flings were almost always tall and very sensual, but Alana was not very tall, I could even say short, but she is beautiful, she has much more than a sensual body and I felt looks on her that I didn't like very much.

We went in and I introduced her to my friends

Rave and Heitor, the girls she already knew, at least Gabi and Isis, the others weren't there yet.

Alana

We walked in hand in hand, everything about that man was big, or I was too small. When we got to the table, he introduced me to the guys and I already knew Gabi and Isis.

Rave: With all due respect, but your future fake wife is beautiful

Alana smiles: Thank you and I loved the fake wife (smiling)

Isis and Gabi whispering to her: You look beautiful, the handsome one over there is full of himself (they laugh)

Alana: More than full of himself

They laugh

Heitor: What's so funny?

Gabi: Don't give us that bad mood

Benjamin: Alana, Heitor is very funny and a good guy, and that yesterday he lost a bet and lost his car to a woman and still can't believe it (they laugh at him)

Rave laughing: Get over it, you know his problem is not the car because he already bought another one, his problem is losing to a woman who had never raced before.

Benjamin: Well, it happens, buddy

Isis: What do you mean, she never raced and beat you, who always wins?

Benjamin: It seems it was his sister-in-law

Alana thinking: It can't be, it can't be, and with that, she ends up speaking out loud

Isis: What can't be, Alana?

Alana: Nothing

Alana thinking: But soon they'll find out that Felipe is my brother-in-law, so I'll tell them

Alana: Tell me the name of the car he lost and...

Heitor and Benjamin look at her: How do you know?

Alana: Felipe is my brother-in-law

Gabi laughing: Stop everything. Wait a minute, I got it right, you were the one who showed Heitor who's boss

Alana: It's not like that, I apologize Heitor, but I saw you racing and it was easy, sorry

Benjamin thinking: It was her! Wow, now I'm impressed, she likes cars, that's why I believe in God. And he smiles

Benjamin: Alana, you don't have to apologize to Heitor, he accepted the bet and you noticed his mistake

Heitor: But how did you beat me, Alana?

Alana: You accelerate too much before, you only hadn't lost because most people don't understand much about power and acceleration, as well as driving. I'm no expert, but I noticed your mistake and took advantage of it. About the car, you were the one who offered it, so it's your fault. And she smiles

Heitor: Well, I feel better knowing who I lost to, at least she's pretty and intelligent.

Benjamin gives him a look like "back off."

They order their dishes and continue talking and chatting with Heitor, who seemed to be more cheerful.

In the end, it was a very pleasant evening; they said goodbye and Benjamin took Alana home.
