P.O.V Angelina & Nicolas (Three months later!)
~~~ Angelina
"You look stunning," Nicolas remarked admiringly as I descended the staircase, his eyes filled with genuine admiration. The soft glow of the evening sun highlighted the delicate features of his face, adding a touch of warmth to his words.
It's been three months since I decided to forgive Nicolas. We've embarked on this journey where he's gradually opening up to me. I made it clear to him that I couldn't commit to a relationship if he continued to hide things from me constantly. So, over the past three months, we've been spending a significant amount of time together, building trust and understanding between us. It has been both scary and fun. I got to learn a lot about him, but some of those things are just... disturbing.
Nicolas even went as far as creating an entire modeling team exclusively for me. Initially, he envisioned it solely for my benefit only, but I had to make him understand that it couldn't revolve around just me. I managed to persuade him to expand the team by hiring more individuals, thereby scaling up our business. As a result of our efforts, we have now climbed the ranks to become one of the top 5 modeling companies in Russia.
Nicolas not only created a whole new modeling team just for me but also moved us to one of his penthouses, a different one from before, but this time, a much grander and more contemporary space. It's evident that he truly values my input and listens to what I have to say.
Today however marked my twenty-second birthday, and Nicolas had this sweet plan to take me out. I tried to play it down, saying it was just another birthday, but he insisted it was a 'special' one since it would be the first he'd celebrate with me, and I'm just glad I visited my sister beforehand.
"Thank you," I express with a grateful smile before leaning in to kiss him tenderly, conveying my appreciation through the warmth of the moment.
I wore a pink slim-fit sheath short dress, that he bought for me just for my birthday. I also added a pink bow to my hair that was in high ponytail.
"Ready to go?" He whispered against my lips.
I nod in response, and we make our way out the door. His grasp on my hand tightens, almost as if he fears I might fly away, his touch radiating warmth.

"What did you do when you were in Sweden?" Nicolas inquired as he courteously pulled out my chair for me to sit, before settling into his own seat beside me, his eyes filled with genuine curiosity and interest in my experiences.
The waiter arrived with the menus just after I questioned, "Do you really want to know?" Amidst the chatter of other patrons filling the room, Nicolas had proposed booking the entire place just for us, but I assured him it wasn't required.
"Wait, do you really need to know." I corrected myself.
He flashed me a warm smile and said, "I'm very interested."
