Immediately Bel's aunt saw us she stopped and starred endlessly at us or should I say me
" oh my gosh! Cennet am I the bride or you are, you look totally breathtaking ( she came closer to me and studied my face) wow your makeup artist is a pro" she complimented and I smiled she has no idea I did it myself
"You actually look like someone" she said and that got me a bit worried
Then suddenly Bel replied from behind " yeah like a model but the eyes are the difference" oh no, it's obviously my mother
Bel's aunt came closer to me and scanned my face, she looked particularly at my eyes " you are wearing eye lens right but wait why only on one eyes" my heart skipped, the one day I mistakenly wore my eye lens on only one eye that she had to notice , I began to panick
" no…am…not..wearing…."
" hush dear, you can't lie to me, I can tell between a real and fake eye" I swallowed and looked away trying to think of a way out
What if she notice? What if she discovers my hidden secret, a secret I hid and concealed all my life? What if….what if…..gosh I was overthinking, if my uncle just gets a little hint that someone noticed me and my mom's resemblance, he is gonna make sure he blows my head off.
My mind was filled with many thoughts, I began to think of a way out of this, she began to mutter something, a name, I read her lips and my heart began to beat fast, it's my mom's name, I panicked and words unknowingly came out of my mouth,almost like I was shouting
" Miss Slone!"
" yes dear"
" when we walked in you looked worried"
"Oh yeah about that,it seems like I am going to have to prospone the wedding"
"What!" Now it was Bel's time to look shock,it's will be the fifth time if she does, her fiancé really has patience
For me all men are the same, they are nice at first but when you uncover their true colors, you will realize that you were just being fooled, just like my pathetic uncle.
Bel looked displeased
" what's the problem now" she asked
"Well you see, today is my wedding and I have to look good, but Nina who I trained to be a professional just for the sake of this day is now stuck in a traffic jam, what the hell am I supposed to do, I just have an hour to prepare"
"But you have so many girls that you trained and are working for you, what about Kaitlin "
"Nahhh, I want to look superb"They began to argue, Bel was trying her best to convince her aunt not to prospond the wedding, they were still arguing when I suddenly said
"I can do the makeup for you" I said and they both looked at me like I had two heads on my neck, well I expected that, Miss Slone won't allow even her well trained makeup artist but here I was suggesting she allows me do her makeup when I clearly don't even look like someone who knows how to apply powder
" I know you wanna help Cennet but no" well that was a direct rejection
"I know it's sounds crazy but trust me I can do it"
"Cennet..."
" you said I look amazing right"
"Yeah but…."
"Well i did the makeup by myself"
" what that's impossible you look like someone who cannot even hold a hairbrush properly" well that's a big slap to my face, I actually don't blame her this is like the first time I am standing up for something I am certain about, so I won't take it as an insult.
After much pressure, she looked at her wristwatch and finally agreed
Well starting to think of it now, l am actually a bit scared, the self confidence inside of me just flew out the window
I took a long deep breath started, I made it something like mine, not very heavy. I used shiny eyeshadow and used mascara for the final touching of the eye.
For her lips I did a lip combo, I carefully lined her lips with a black lip pencil then applied orange lipstick to the sides of her lips and light pink lipstick on the middle, I told her to continuously rub her lips together, she gave me an eye that said (are you sure you know what you are doing ) before she started, when the colors effectively mixed and the lip combo came out, I told her to stop then I applied lipgloss to make it more attractive.
I applied makeup to other parts of her face and when I was done I gave her a smaller mirror to look at herself
She hesitated before she finally did and immediately she did, she pushed her chair backwards dropped the mirror and starred at herself in the bigger one in front of her. Her actions frighten me , I began to ask myself
Does she not like the makeup? Or did I apply too much?or is it too simple for her liking?
Different question popped into my head which left me wondering which one she is currently thinking
I careful took out my facial wipes and took one out ready to clean the makeup
" I don't like it Cennet….." i felt like my heart stopped beating
