Irina's point of view:

After Having breakfast in the morning, Roman informed me to get dressed before ten because we were going out before he left the room. I wonder where he went. 

Anyway, I was so excited when he told me. I am going out. But I don't have any good clothes to wear. I went to my luggage again to see if there were any clothes to wear. 

There is no appropriate dress for me to wear. I went back to the living room with a crop top and a mini trouser.

I will have to tell Roman when he comes back about my situation.

I turned on the TV and started watching a movie. A few minutes later, the door opened and Roman entered with shopping bags.

"Hey." He said.

"Hi." I replied to him.

"What are those?" I asked him with curiosity as he put everything on the chair. 

"I thought you said you don't have a decent cloth to wear, so I brought you a few clothes, we can hit the boutique when we are free. But I think we have a tight schedule today. And I brought you a make up kit and some make up."he explained.

"I don't need makeup and moreover I can't even do my own makeup. I can't make up."  I told him.

"Don't worry about it. You can check the dresses out." He said.

"Okay" I said as I took the clothes out of the bags. 

He brought two lovely dresses and two pants and two shirts.

"Wow! They all look lovely, I love them all." I said admiring the two gowns he brought. They look so elegant and expensive. 

"I will try them out." I said as I packed everything and went to the bedroom to check them out. I locked the door and quickly put them on the bed. I was quick to put off the crop top and mini trouser that I wore. I tried the first dress on with a big mole on my face. I am acting like a small girl who was gifted with new clothes.

The dress didn't fit me. I felt sad. It was bigger than my size.

I went out of the room to show me. I couldn't stop laughing when I got in front of him.

He first checked me out before smiling. Oh my God! Did he just smile.? I can't believe Roman smiled. He smiled broadly. He looks so hot and handsome when smiling. Goodness, I wish he could just smile often.

"Let me go and try the second dress." I said to him and he nodded. 

I went to the room and put it off. I wore the second gown, it is not as long as the other one. It reaches my knees. I zipped it up and adjusted it. This one is even worse. The gown Is lovely but unfortunately it doesn't fit me. It is not my size.

I went out to show him the dress.

"This one is even worse." He commented as he chuckled.

Seriously,I want to see him laugh. All he doesn't Everytime is to chuckle. He looked so cute when he smiled. I want to see him laugh, I hope my wish comes to pass.

"I didn't know your size, we can buy your size if we go shopping for clothes and things we need." He said.

I nodded and thought about their prices. These dresses are so elegant, so I am very sure they will be expensive.

"The dresses must be expensive." I said as I sat down with that dress.

"No, they ain't really expensive. I bought that long one One thousand dollars while I bought this dress for a hundred dollars." He said.

"They are really expensive. I have a credit card now, let me pay you back." I said to him,

He stared at me for a few minutes before chuckling.

"You are showing off now because you have a credit card. That's a nice try but as long as we are married, I will pay for everything you buy especially when we go out together. You can use your card when you go out with anyone but me. I will always pay. That's remembers me." He paused and brought out a black credit card. "Take this card, you can use it when you want to purchase something"  he stretched his hand with the card towards me waiting for me to accept it.

"No, I don't want to. I already have one." I objected.

"I know, just take it. You can use the two together. It won't be nice if I don't care for my wife's needs or give her money. So just take it." He said.

I accepted it from him and mumbled thank you.

"I will go and try other clothes to see if they fit in." I said to him as I left the living room.

I tried the trouser and to my surprise, it fitted me . I wore a shirt and it also fitted me. 

"This is nice." I said as I checked myself out. I look so beautiful right now. The cloth fitted me so well. I brushed my long hair and packed it up in a ponytail. I went out of the room after wearing my heels. I carried a black bag that was the color of my trousers. 

"I am ready." I said to him, He checked me out. I think he has a hobby of checking someone out.

"I see, they fit you so well." He said.

"Yes. Thank you." I said.

"Give me a moment to change." He said as he went out of the living room to the bedroom.

I waited for a few minutes, and then he came out of the living room.

He is dressed in a tuxedo. Wow! He looks hot in it. Few buttons from his chest are opened which expose his chest. His hair is nicely styled and his shoes are shining.

"If you are done checking out, can we go out of the house?" He smirked.

My cheeks are crimson right now. Gosh! He caught me red handed.

"I didn't check you out." I lied as I stood up.

"Anything you say, your highness." He joked as he collected my bag from me so that he could carry it for me.

"Thank you." 

"Don't mention"

We walked to the door. He was quick to open the door for me. I smiled at him and went out of the door.
