Chapter 5 - Devil and Angel

Angelia Selosvone

I think my heart’s going to fall out, since morning I can't think well. I kept thinking about Alex and I know this situation isn’t good.

I know I'm in a really big trouble.

I looked at the mirror blankly like an idiot, I don't know what to do, what to wear, what should I apply now. I already applied the make up base and I decided to go with simple eye make up and red lips. Curling my brown hair to big loose curls.

I looked at my closet and scanned at every white dresses that I have, I kept changing the dress until I decided to wear a long white dress with a low V cut on my chest. The sleeve stopped at my elbow and the length stop below my knee a little.

I walked to my closet and took my small gold clutch, putting my Rose Gold iPhone7 inside, a couple of money and lipstick. Taking my gold lace up high heels. I looked at my big mirror for the whole look.

So innocent.. totally an Angel.

I applied a nice refreshing perfume and I think I'm ready to go. The clock showed 6.25, The painting exhibition place is quite near so I don't have to worry about being late. I walked downstairs and find my parents sitting watching TV.

"Hey mom and dad, I'm going to a painting exhibition." I walked to them and plopped beside them for awhile.

"You look so beautiful Angel." My mom smiled and dad gave me a thumbs up.

"Be careful." My dad said as I stood up and walked to the door.

"Will do and bye." I said and walked out. The driver already waiting for me, got inside and he drove out from my house. My phone rang and it showed Kayla’s name on the screen. I picked it up right away.

"Hey." I answered.

"Are you already on your way?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm almost there."

"Good cause the devil already arrive." She announced and my heart skipped a beat. I gulped nervously.

"Good." I said and with that we ended the call. As soon as I arrived at the venue. I got out from my car and waited. I looked at the venue, it’s full of people. We queued to enter the venue.

"Angelia Selosvone." Someone announced and everyone started to turn their eyes to me. Cameras were flashing as my departure was announced. I smiled to the camera and slowly walked up to the stairs.

I got inside and now my heart beat crazily. I scanned the room and decided to walked to the right section first and to see the paintings. I made my way to the first painting that caught my eyes, it's a beautiful scenery of a small island.

Edward Lott sure is a good artist.

I turned away from the painting and walked to the next one. At the same time my eyes landed on the man with a dark maroon suit. He's looking so handsome today as he style his hair like a gentleman.

Inside his dark red suit, he's wearing a white shirt that make him look so sexy, dark and mysterious at the same time. He's talking with someone while looking at the painting. His jawline defying his looks, his thin beard look so appealing by looking at his side look.

I walked towards him but trying not to look bold, I was looking at another painting too. I saw he's alone when he looked at this one painting that interested him.

I decided to stand a few steps beside him and looked at the painting that interest him. It's a painting about 2 different world, the upper one is light and the bottom one is dark. The painting represented heaven and hell as I looked at it more and more.

"Devil and Angel." I stated and I know he turned his head to mine. I turned to him and I saw he’s smirking. My heartbeat went crazy.

"Well isn’t it the Angel herself shows up?" He said in his deep tone voice that made me shiver. He looked at the painting again and let out a small chuckle. I swear I can't take my eyes of him until I decided to look at the painting again.

"So is the devil representing you, Mr. North?" I asked bravely and I turned my face to him keeping my expression in check.

He suddenly walked to me, I froze in place and felt so nervous as hell. He stood beside me, right beside me!

"And you represent the definition of heaven? Innocent? Kind? Never deal with sin?" He asked in a husky voice and I gulped nervously.

"Oh yeah you're an Angel after all.." He whispered to my ear causing me to shiver more.

"I'm no Angel." I replied not wanting him to see me as an innocent girl, he let out a sexy chuckle.

"Oh really?"

"You know what?" He said and I turned my head to the painting trying to hide my nervousness.

"Angel and Devil don't match, Angel always stays on the highest chain while the devil stays on the bottom of the chain. So if the Angel finds the Devil interesting, she should jump to the bottom of the chain." I turned to him and saw him already smirking. I looked at his brown orbs and then he left me.

What is that mean?

I looked at his back as he walked away and I cursed under my breath annoy.

"Angel?" I turned to see Sean looking at me in a really shock expression.

"Hey Sean." I greeted and hugged him briefly.

"What brings you here?"

Sean here is a famous singer, I know him because last month I was the model of his music video. Sean's voice is really good and people even said that he's a mini Michael Buble.

"Interest in paintings?" I said in a really weird tone causing him to laugh.

"Angel, I know you're not a big fan of this type of event." He got that right.

"Just bored at home."

"You can call me, we can do something fun." He stated and that's not what I'm looking for. I smiled awkwardly at him.

"I have to find someone." I excused myself.

"Okay.." He answered in an awkward and sad tone. I decided to leave him there and I walked away. To prevent weirdness, I walked around the exhibition until I saw my bestfriend talking to someone. I made my way to her.

"Kayla." I called and she turned to see me. She smile as she saw what I wear and she excused herself from the person she's talking too.

"You look wow." She squealed.

"I talked to him earlier." I said and her eyes widen.

"How did it turn out?"

"It was short and he ended up saying a statement that I don't understand." I sighed.

"What did he say?"

"He said 'Angel and Devil don't match, Angel always stays on the highest chain while the devil stays on the bottom of the chain. So if the Angel finds the Devil interesting, she should jump to the bottom of the chain', I don't get him really? Is he playing riddle with me?" I said frustrated and I saw Kayla smile, I looked at her with a questioning eyes.

"I think he knows you're interested in him." What?
