The Unwanted Presence

I can barely recognize myself in the mirror when the make-up artist finally steps away from my face.

According to mum’s order, she had made me look a bit mature with the powder and concealer just to fit Mr. Austin.

I guess she is ashamed of the man just like I am for her to go to this extent.

“I have a few jewellery pieces, I will bring them now,” Mum says to the makeup artist and leaves immediately. Few minutes later, she returns to my side with three different jewellery pieces

“Which one would suit her outfit from amongst these pieces?” Mum inquiries, in deep contemplation. Then I see her eyes linger on the pearl necklace.

A scoff escapes my lips. I would never have believed that she would one day care about my looks enough to give me something from her expensive jewellery collection if a day like today didn’t come by.

Anyone who doesn’t know Mum will think she loves me so much and want me to be presentable, not knowing that she has a selfish reason behind her attitude.
