Chapter Four:
Milan:
-Day Four-
Diamond stands
outside of her apartment, waiting. “You finally made it down. Ready to go?
Great. You’re going to love what we’re doing today.” She held out her hand. A
grin comes across her face.
“Where are we
going today? Delighted you asked! We’re going to trendy Milan!” Diamond grins.
“This is my
other favorite city in Italy. I just love the fashion there. Everyone says Paris
is royalty of fashion. I say fuck that. Milan is where it’s at. Isn’t that what
you say back in the States? No? Oh well.” She shrugs.
“Anyway, we are
going into the fashion jungle of Italy. I heard that there’s a fashion show in
the park. My cousin is showing off her stuff today.” She clapped her hands
together and rubbed them together.
“Again, we will
do the sight-seeing. Both the buildings and the fashion. I will change your mind
about Paris and New York.” Diamond winks.
“Of course, your
meals and drinks are on me. That’s right. We will be sampling more wine. Plus,
the shopping. Oh! There’s this one boutique I always visit once a year. Have you
heard of a place called Antonia? They’ve been around for a long time. I like
their clothes. I’d live in the store if I could.” She frowns.
“But Mama
wouldn’t let me spend any money in there. I only get to shop at Antonia on my
birthday. Ha. Lame.” Diamond rolled her eyes.
“But never mind.
I will not let my blite get in the way of our day. There’s also a chocolate shop
that I want to check out. Now, that I am not restricted to shopping there.
You’re going to enjoy this.” Her mood perks up.
“Let’s get going. I want to get there before the streets get crowded.” Diamond takes the guest by the hand and led them down the street.
