I follow Marco out of the spare room, his excitement is beginning to rub off on me and I smile even further. He’s like a child who wants to show off his toys and I can’t help but wonder what he is so delighted to show me.

He pulls me towards the door to the room I use when I’m here, he stops at the door with a broad smile on his face.

“Close your eyes,” He commands.

“Marco just open the door.”

“No, humor me. Close your eyes.”

“Fine.” I agree and close my eyes obediently.

I hear him open the door and gentle lead me inside. I wait till I hear him close the door before taking a step further, he promptly holds my hand and pulls me in a direction I suspect to be where the bed is.

He stops and I stop too with my eyes still closed.

“Can I open my eyes now?” I ask impatient to see what was waiting for me.

“Yes.”

I open my eyes slowly in anticipation of what I will see.

There is a lovely gown laid on the bed with matching heels, I walk closer to the bed and see the rest of the items. Ther
