The Iranian
Mona and Akef - Part III
Index
He reached down and grabbed her hand and told her that he just can't
have anything bad happen to her and that he wants the best for her. She
moved closer to him and he embraced her. He walked her upstairs to her
room to be sure she was safe. As he left the hotel he hailed a cab.
Akef was standing outside smoking a cigarette. The next morning Akef
phoned Mona from the lobby. He told her to get ready and he took her to
an absolutely wonderful boutique where an entourage of beautiful French
women modeled fabulous dresses and gowns for her. She felt so special,
thrilled, and excited. Akef told her which ones he liked and she concurred
as he did have good taste. They left the boutique and traveled a few hours
to the Versailles.
It was such a romantic afternoon. After their quick visit they returned
to the hotel and Akef told her to get ready in one hour and wear something
peach. She said she didn't have anything in peach.
Mona went upstairs and found big boxes on top of each other from the
boutique they visited. She opened each one quickly and found the peach
colored dress. She lifted her hair half way and let curls hang from each
side and just looked so elegant. She stared at herself in the mirror and
saw how beautiful she was and smiled and didn't think she was chubby at
all. She ignored everything Babak told her.
She felt an urge to unveil a layer of her mind. She told him that she
did much more with him than she intended.
