Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 62

Chapter 62: A date with David.

Even after rebirth, the hardest part of preparing for a date was choosing an outfit. Since she didn’t dress like an old frumpy old woman anymore, it was perplexing to decided what was too much or too little for a first date. Her bed had been turned into a mountain of clothes, many with their tags still on, indicating that they had never been worn.

“This is like watching a dog at a meat buffet.” Connie laughed at Phoebe’s plight.

Phoebe ignored the girl. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and picked a dress at random. She opened her eyes and nodded firmly.

“I have made my choice.”

She threw off her towel and pulled on the jeans she had picked out.

Saxon spirit threw Phoebe a disapproving look for it greatly disagreed with her choice of outfit.

“I think that you should wear a sexy see through dress to seduce David. How do you hope to achieve anything wearing those long pants? Are you going to work in a factory? I mean I was hoping that tonight is the night that you take things to a whole new level.”

Her words caused Connie and Phoebe who were standing in front of the mirror admiring her finished look to study it once again.

Connie disagreed with the Saxon spirit. “I think it’s perfect, this is the new sexy, it’s demure. She is flashing some cleavage to be tempting but not ratchet.” She looked at Phoebe with stars in her eyes. “Sister you look pretty but simple.”

Phoebe was wearing a pair of light blue jeans, a white corset top and white stiletto heels. For her hair, she let it flow like the endless river of the Nile.

“That’s it, I think i am done.” Phoebe began to walk away from the mirror only to pause when the two ghosts said no in unison.

“What now?” She stared quizzically at them.

“Your face! I mean at least put in some effort and apply on some makeup. Right now you look like your usual self.” The spirit pointed at Phoebe’s make up bag. It had very little makeup because she barely needed it.

“I am a natural beauty.” Phoebe declared.

Connie nodded. “Yes, you are but i am with her on this one, you look like you are going to war with that face but lucky for you, I know a thing or two about makeup.” She vanished into the pendant.

Phoebe touched her face and scoffed while admiring her natural beauty in the mirror.

“How is this the face of a person going to war?” she stuttered.

Connie came out of the pendant with a makeup box which she immediately opened, revealing seven layers of different products. It was the kind of makeup box used by professional makeup artists.

“When and how did you get that makeup box into the magic space Connie?”

“Thank spirit Saxon for this, we know that you are lacking in this department. Luckily I am here to save the day.” Connie bounced on her feet in pride.

“She pinched it from Susie’s house.” The Saxon spirit shared.

Phoebe gasped and shook her head at Connie, giving the young girl a look of great disapproval.

“How could you Connie?”

“It’s not as if Susie needed it anymore.” Connie muttered.

“The girl is right, dead Susie doesn’t need makeup. Stop looking for excuses and present your face.”

There was no point arguing with them so Phoebe accepted. She would still have a serious conversation with the girl about taking things which didn’t belong to them. One Sylvester at home was enough, he didn’t need an assistant.

When Connie was done, Phoebe admired the girl’s handiwork with appreciative eyes.

“Good job.” she paid her a compliment and pulled a small dish of mixed yoghurt with fruit which Sylvester had left there in the morning.

“Why are you eating? You need to leave space for when you’re at the date.” The Saxon spirit tried to take the dish from her but in vain.

“Rule number one, never go on a date hungry, you can never know what might happen.” Phoebe talked as she chewed.

With her ghost seeing abilities, she never knew when she would have to drop everything and help a ghost. Or if there was a malicious spirit in the restaurant and she had to call a ghost catcher to get rid of it. Or maybe business on David’s side, an abrupt meeting or an emergency at Saxon tower. There had been many of those which ruined their dates when they were married.

Phoebe switched on her phone and found over ten messages. Her father expressed his bitterness of her behavior towards them and promised that whenever he saw her, there would be hell to pay.

Her mother too seemed furious especially with Rosset and demanded that she fire her employee.

“Humph” Phoebe scoffed and deleted them.

She stowed the phone in her purse but pulled it out again when it began to ring. Phoebe thought it could be David telling her to meet him in the parking area.

To her surprise, it was Collin Baltimore. She answered the call immediately.

“Hello?”

“Pheebs hey, I have been trying to call you but your number has been unavailable. Is everything alright?”

“Yeah, there is no problem here, my battery died. Why is anything the matter?” A slight frown formed on her face.

“Well i… I just wanted to ask you something but…in person, can i come over.” His hesitation only made her curious but it was the wrong time.

“Oh….unfortunately I have a thing but tomorrow perhaps?” Phoebe made a suggestion to which Collin agreed before he hung up.

She sat down in a chair and waited for David. After about ten minutes Phoebe who was tired of waiting started running out of patience.

“Why isn’t he here yet? I am about to cancel the whole thing.”

“It’s been literally only nine minutes, be a lady and have some patience!” Saxon spirit vanished in search for David and reappeared immediately. “He’s here.”

The moment Phoebe heard it’s words, she walked to the door and opened it just when David was about to knock. Surprised, he stared at her.

“You are late, i hate to wa….” Phoebe’s sentence was interrupted by

David who completed it. “Wait. I am sorry but I had a situation. I am here now and we can get going.” His eyes roamed over her like he was looking at a bag of his favorite candy.

“You look ravishing tonight Pheebs.” David praised her.

He knew that she had made an effort because he could hardly remember her wearing makeup, even on important functions. She was also in very good shape and the clothes only accentuated her curves which made her more desirable.

“Thank you.” she brushed her hair back and stepped out.

He followed her, acting like a gentleman all the way as he escorted her to the car.

When they reached the Mi amor restaurant, Phoebe acted surprised that it was totally empty.

“Where is everyone? Are we early?” Her big doe eyes looked at him.

Just when he was about to brag that he had bought the restaurant for the night she burst his bubble. “Don’t tell me that you denied other people the chance to enjoy the food here by buying out the restaurant for the night? How Saxon of you.” She sounded very unimpressed.
