I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness," I mutter.
"I wanted to make sure you were still with me. It seemed your mind wandered off there for a few minutes," she says, looking at me.
"Nah, I'm still here, but you know this isn't my thing," I tell her, and she nods.
"I know, and I appreciate you doing this with me."
"Anything for you, except wearing that god awful color," I say quickly as she lifts the dress again.
We both chuckle, and she puts it back on the rack.
“I actually already have the dresses picked out, and I hope you like it,” she says, biting her bottom lip.
“Okay, let’s see it,” I tell her, and she shakes her head. “Why not?” I ask.
“I’m waiting on…”
The door opens, bringing in Emily and Krista. I look over at Leia, and she smiles.
“Now I can show you,” she whispers. “Em, Kris, I’m so glad you both could come,” Leia says.
“I’m happy to allow Jake to spend time with his sons,” Emily says with a smile.
“I don’t have another patient for a couple of hours, so this worked out for me,” Krista says with a smile.
Looking at Leia and Krista, I can see the family resemblance a little in the facial features, mainly the eyes.
I give each of the girls a hug, then Krista says, “You know, if we make this quick, we can go eat lunch.”
We all laugh. Krista is like a bottomless pit when it comes to her stomach.
“Since you said that, Kris, I do have a confession. I already picked out your dresses for the wedding, I need you to try them on,” she tells everyone, while biting her lip.
“This could be a good thing, or a bad thing,” Emily says.
They both look at me, and I put my hands up, “Don’t look at me, I know absolutely nothing more than what you do.”
We all look at Leia, who motions for the retail lady.
“Samantha, could you show them to their dressing room?”
“Absolutely. Follow me ladies, please,” she says, walking away.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be waiting in the sitting area,” Leia says, excitement shining in her eyes.
When I walk into the dressing room that was pointed out to me, I see a gorgeous emerald-green dress hanging up and collectively hear the other two gasp.
I quickly undress and slip the dress on. The dress goes to the floor, but there is a slit up to my mid-thigh on the left side. The front kind of wraps in the middle, while the neckline is low, but not so much that you see the girls, or the cleavage. There is a flared sleeve on the left side, but a sleeveless strap on the right side. The back is draped open to mid back, and the sequins on the gown shimmer in the light. It’s absolutely stunning.
We all open our doors at the same, looking each other over with huge smiles on our faces, then collectively walk out to allow Leia to see us.
“Oh my goodness,” she gasps. “You are all so beautiful, and the dresses fit perfectly. How do you all feel?” she asks.
We all look at each other, making her wait, before we say, “Love it,” at the same time, and the smile that shines on her face is priceless.
“I’m so happy,” she gushes. “Now, who would like their dress hemmed a little more at the bottom?”
“Mine could probably go up an inch,” I say, and the girls agree to an inch as well.
