Chapter 27 The museum
"Guilt is the mafia of the mind." ~ Robert Mandel
Irina's point of view:
After having breakfast in the morning, Roman informed me to get dressed before ten because we were going out before he left the room. I wonder where he went.
Anyway, I was so excited when he told me. I am going out. But I don't have any good clothes to wear. I went to my luggage again to see if there were any clothes to wear.
There is no appropriate dress for me to wear. I went back to the living room with a crop top and a mini pair of trousers.
I will have to tell Roman when he comes back about my situation.
I turned on the TV and started watching a movie. A few minutes later, the door opened and Roman entered with shopping bags.
"Hey." He said.
"Hi," I replied to him.
"What are those?" I asked him with curiosity as he put everything on the chair.
"I thought you said you don't have decent clothes to wear, so I brought you a few clothes, we can hit the boutique when we are free. But I think we have a tight schedule today. And I brought you a makeup kit and some makeup." he explained.
"I don't need makeup and I can't even do my own makeup. I can't make up." I told him.
"Don't worry about it. You can check the dresses out." He said.
"Okay," I said as I took the clothes out of the bags.
He brought two lovely dresses and two pairs of pants and two shirts.
"Wow! They all look lovely, I love them all." I said admiring the two gowns he brought. They look so elegant and expensive.
"I will try them out," I said as I packed everything and went to the bedroom to check them out. I locked the door and quickly put them on the bed. I was quick to take off the crop top and mini trousers that I wore. I tried the first dress on with a big mole on my face. I am acting like a small girl who was gifted with new clothes.
The dress didn't fit me. I felt sad. It was bigger than my size.
I went out of the room to show myself. I couldn't stop laughing when I got in front of him.
He first checked me out before smiling. Oh my God! Did he just smile.? I can't believe Roman smiled. He smiled broadly. He looks so hot and handsome when smiling. Goodness, I wish he could just smile often.
"Let me go and try the second dress," I said to him and he nodded.
I went to the room and turned it off. I wore the second gown, which is not as long as the other one. It reaches my knees. I zipped it up and adjusted it. This one is even worse. The gown is lovely but unfortunately, it doesn't fit me. It is not my size.
I went out to show him the dress.
"This one is even worse." He commented as he chuckled.
Seriously, I want to see him laugh. All he doesn't Everytime is chuckle. He looked so cute when he smiled. I want to see him laugh, I hope my wish comes to pass.
"I didn't know your size, we can buy your size if we go shopping for clothes and things we need." He said.
I nodded and thought about their prices. These dresses are so elegant, so I am very sure they will be expensive.
"The dresses must be expensive," I said as I sat down with that dress.
"No, they ain't really expensive. I bought that long one One thousand dollars while I bought this dress for a hundred dollars." He said.
"They are really expensive. I have a credit card now, let me pay you back." I said to him,
He stared at me for a few minutes before chuckling.
"You are showing off now because you have a credit card. That's a nice try but as long as we are married, I will pay for everything you buy especially when we go out together. You can use your card when you go out with anyone but me. I will always pay. That's remembers me." He paused and brought out a black credit card. "Take this card, you can use it when you want to purchase something" he stretched his hand with the card towards me waiting for me to accept it.
"No, I don't want to. I already have one." I objected.
"I know, just take it. You can use the two together. It won't be nice if I don't care for my wife's needs or give her money. So just take it." He said.
I accepted it from him and mumbled thank you.
"I will go and try on other clothes to see if they fit," I said to him as I left the living room.
I tried the trouser and to my surprise, they fitted me. I wore a shirt and it also fitted me.
"This is nice," I said as I checked myself out. I look so beautiful right now. The cloth fitted me so well. I brushed my long hair and packed it up in a ponytail. I went out of the room after putting on my heels. I carried a black bag that was the color of my trousers.
"I am ready," I said to him, He checked me out. I think he has a hobby of checking someone out.
"I see, they fit you so well." He said.
"Yes. Thank you." I said.
"Give me a moment to change." He said as he went out of the living room to the bedroom.
I waited for a few minutes, and then he came out of the living room.
He is dressed in a tuxedo. Wow! He looks hot in it. A few buttons from his chest are opened which expose his chest. His hair is nicely styled and his shoes are shining.
"If you are done checking out, can we go out of the house?" He smirked.
My cheeks are crimson right now. Gosh! He caught me red-handed.
"I didn't check you out." I lied as I stood up.
"Anything you say, your highness." He joked as he collected my bag from me so that he could carry it for me.
"Thank you."
"Don't mention"
We walked to the door. He was quick to open the door for me. I smiled at him and went out the door.
He might be a bad guy but he is a gentleman to the core. He was trained very well and I like that fact about him.
We walked out of the hotel and entered the car. The car was already waiting for us at the entrance. He opened the door for me as always and I slid in.
The driver drove off without asking where we were headed.
"Is this your car?" I asked Roman the question that has been lingering in my mind.
"Yes." He answered as he glanced at me shortly.
"Hmm." I nodded my head.
"What about the car from yesterday that drove us from the airport?" I asked him.
"I own it too." He answered me politely.
"Hmm. How many cars do you have in total in this country?" I asked him again.
"About five or six." He said recalling the number of cars he has.
"You are really loaded, dude," I said with a smile as I smacked his arm playfully.
He let out a little smile in wonder. He was surprised by my actions.
"Seriously?" He let in amusement.
"Sorry about that," I said as I composed myself.
"It is not like you are not loaded." He said in mockery.
"How am I loaded?" I asked him.
"You have a rich husband and father, not to mention having the most powerful men in Russia as husband and father." He let his hands in the air.
"I know that already but I can't buy cars as you did. I am broke as a person." I pouted.
"With the credit card alone I gave you, you can buy any car you want. And I am sure the card your father gave you must be filled with huge money." I said.
"Are you teasing me right now?" I asked him.
"No, I am not. I promise you. You can use it to buy anything you want." He assured me.
I smiled. I can buy anything I want with the two credit cards in my hands.
"We are here, sir." The driver announced as he switched off the engine of the car.
"Here we are." He said as he straightened his shirt.
"Don't get down, I will open the door for you." He said as he got down from the car and came to my side and opened the door for me to get out. He pulled out his hand which I gladly took. I got out of the car and he collected my bag for me. I didn't object this time in fact, I was expecting him to carry it.
I looked over to the beautiful view before me. It looks so exquisite and magnificent. The building is so huge.
"Where are we?" I asked him in awe.
"Museum" he answered as he placed his hand around me.
"Let's go in." He said and I nodded. We walked hand in hand into the museum.
"Welcome to the Bangkok National museum. Your entry is 200 baht each." The person said.
"Okay," Roman said as he brought a foreign currency and gave it to the person.
"Here are your tickets." The person said as he gave Roman tickets after collecting the money and putting it in the drawer.
Roman collected it and gave me one.
"We need a person to give us a tour around the museum." He said to the man.
"Then you have to pay extra money if you need the guardian to stay with you until you leave since you are not a Thai." He said.
How did he know that?
"I thought it was free," Roman said with disappointment.
"No." He said.
"Okay." He gave the receptionist the money he asked for. The receptionist called a person to give us a tour around the museum and he did.
"The man is a fraud, they don't collect money for giving someone a tour," Roman mumbled to me.
"It is all over his face. We should have reported him since you know." I gossiped with him.
"Just leave him alone. Let's go." We then followed the young man and he showed us around. He took us to the three spaces in the museum which are; Siwamokhaphiman hall, Buddhaisawan chapel, and the Red house. He also told us their history. Then he told us about the historical statuses and the weapons used in the war and so on.
After spending almost two hours in the museum, we left it but we ate Thai dishes, then we went to Baan Silapin, one of the best traditional puppet shows in Bangkok. We had fun with our lives watching shows. It was really amazing. I couldn't stop laughing after we left the place.
Then we went to the Bangkok culture and art center. The bottom floor was an art library which we checked out, then we went to the upper floor, but not before putting my bag in the locker.
We checked out the galleries and we took pictures. Surprising right? Yes, we took pictures together. And it was amazing.
We then went to the top two floors where there was a huge exhibition room with different hot styles of the exhibitions in it and then a spiral ramp, video arts, statues, performances, and so on.
One painting attracted me, and I wanted it immediately.
"Can they sell this painting?" I asked Roman.
"No." He answered, looking tired already. I know all these things aren't his things, they ain't like the mafia businesses but he is still catching up with everything.
"Why? I should have enough money to buy it. You told me that I can buy anything with the credit cards." I said to him as I frowned a little at him.
"These paintings aren't for commercial purposes." He explained.
"Too bad I like it and I wish to get it. Can't we talk to the manager? I am sure he will sell it after offering him a huge amount of money to buy it." I said stubbornly.
"I promise you. It is against the law here. Just forget about it. We can go to private exhibitions to buy any painting you want." He tried to convince me.
"It's okay. I don't like it any longer. It is just a painting anyway." Let's continue checking them out.
And we didn't but I couldn't take my eyes off that particular painting. I kept looking at it with the side of my eye. It was a simple yet elegant painting which I think defines me but if I can't own it, it's nothing.
We left the center around 6:30 pm and we arrived at the hotel at almost seven o'clock on the dot. We ate dinner and after eating dinner, we were eager to make love to one another and we did.
We made love like no tomorrow, I couldn't stop cumming in every round neither did he.
Roman was right when he said we have a tight schedule today, he was right. We did have a tight schedule.
Around 9:30 pm, he left the hotel room telling me he won't be long. I had to stay in the hotel room alone. He never came back, and I fell asleep waiting for him. I wonder where he went.
