_Nurtured_ _Affection_
*Chapter* *10* :
[ _Festus' PoV]_
I got there right in time for the program. They had called upon the drama team to perform the drama. During the whole time the drama began I was not paying full attention to it. But I immediately gave my full attention when it was a scene with Julia in it. Not because I was only interested in Julia (even though I wasn't familiar with the other actors) but because she had this aura or let's say she had charisma for the role. She was a natural. She acted flawlessly. She caught the attention of everyone whenever she was in the scene. I'm not surprised she was made the female main character; she was just perfect for the role.
During the music interlude before the final scene, I checked my phone and found messages from both Seth and Samuel. They arrived an hour ago and they were sitting behind me but not too close to me. I turned and saw them. They waved at when they realised I've seen them. After which I turned to watch the drama as the last scene had began.
It was now time for the main characters to act their last part. The male lead walked onto the stage in his lavish tuxedo as he awaited the arrival of the female lead, who was Julia.
I was awestricken as she walked onto the stage with poise and confidence, her elegant attire commanding attention. Her floor-length evening gown was a stunning shade of emerald green, perfectly complementing her porcelain skin. The fitted, strapless bodice showcased her toned shoulders and accentuated her delicate neck. The flowing silk chiffon skirt cascaded down her legs like a waterfall, its subtle sheen catching the light with every movement. A delicate silver belt encircled her slender waist, adding a touch of sophistication to her overall look.
Her raven-black hair was styled in loose, flowing waves that framed her heart-shaped face, drawing attention to her bright, expressive brown eyes. A sprinkling of subtle, shimmering highlights danced across her cheekbones, lending an ethereal glow to her complexion. Around her neck, a delicate silver pendent glinted, its intricate design echoing the patterns on her gown. Her ears were adorned with chandelier earrings that sparkled like diamonds, adding a touch of glamour to her overall appearance. Her hands were gloved in long, white satin gloves that reached up to her elbows, adding a vintage touch to her look. Her shoes were high-heeled, emerald-green stilettos that perfectly matched her gown, their slender straps wrapping elegantly around her ankles.
Overall, she exuded refinement,poise and effortless elegance, her stunning attire making her the epitome of glamour and sophistication. I could not bring myself to take my attention from her. The next thing I heard was applause from the audience signalling the end of the show and I doubt I even heard anything from that last scene because all I could think of and pay attention to was Julia. Joining the audience, the applause lasted until the characters left the stage as the curtains drew down.
