Roxanne nearly rolled her eyes and groaned at Rita’s words. This was how Rita continued her reminiscing, with Roxanne listening to her every word as they walked back to Rita’s home to prepare for their audience with Asher.
“Yeah, on second thought… She seems more childish” Roxanne laughed to herself as she watched Rita divulge tales of her romantic past.
They reached the large, wooden house in no time and entered the warm place. Roxanne missed the heavenly smell and warmth that filled the room. She took in a deep breath and moaned pleasantly.
“As much as it makes me happy that you enjoy being back here, we won’t be taking long. You should get freshened up. Bathroom is that way, the hallway straight down to your left. Rita explained.
“I’ll go prepare some warm water, so just get undressed and wait there. Afterward, we’ll select the clothes that suit you most for your meeting.” Rita furthered.
“Is this all necessary? It’s just a meeting, you know? What’s wrong with what I’m currently wearing?” Rita said, displeased that she had to go out of her way for someone who was akin to a criminal.
“You’re kidding, right? This is your first time officially meeting your mate, you have to be dazzling and irresistible, you know?” Rita smiled
“Yeah, yeah” Rixanne rolled her eyes and retreated to the bathroom, following Rita’s direction, while she went to get the water for Roxanne's use.
[Moments Later]
“You look great,” Rita said with a wide smile, staring at Roxanne in her outfit.
She wore a luxurious looking blue shirt, with dark trousers and a deep brown winter jacket. Her boots were thick and warm brown, with her cap being a matching colour with her jacket.
“This feels weird,” Roxanne grumbled.
“Nonsense! You look perfect, we should get going now.” Rita encouraged me.
With a heavy sigh and an uneasy feeling, Roxanne followed Rita’s lead and left the house.
