"Bu… but… I have to get ready for Swan," I stammered.
"You can still showcase Spring and come back on time for your Swan make over, I would have told Eva to do it since she'd be done first but she's too tall, the beauty of the dress is really portrayed in someone not so tall, like Jasmine and you," Emy said.
" UK I am really sorry for giving you a hard time," Jasmine said.
" no Jasmine, you don't have to apologize. I will do this for you, after all you are my friend right? And friends help each other," I said to her.
" alright UK it's your turn to go out," Emy said to me.
I stepped out feeling very nervous, this wasn't the first time I was going to face a large crowd of people. my hands were shaking just like it did during the launch, I did a 5 Second breathing exercise just to calm my nerves. the auditorium was dark saved from the blue lights by the side of the runway, the only thing I could use in knowing that there were people watching me was the constant clapping, the shutter sound of the camera and the bright light it made. when I stepped out the MC started talking about my entire outfit, " ladies and gentlemen presenting Dazzling Princess. from the top of her head there is a diamond tiara, underneath the tiara is a long veil attached to her hair, the dress is a long sleeved peach colour wedding dress and it has diamond embroidery on it. beautiful isn't it? this wedding dress portrays the Bride who wears it as a dazzling princess, see the way she walks and Glide just like the princess she is," as I walked down the runway it felt as if I was a bride walking down the aisle on my wedding day. my hands stop shaking I even forgot I was nervous, I did a small spin and turned back to the dressing room feeling so proud of myself. knowing that Jade, Tiffany and Juliet we're sitting among the audience watching me and that millions of people watching this show we probably happy to see me, made me so elated. immediately I got into the dressing room, I quickly changed into Jasmine's Spring wedding dress. It was a sleeveless silver dress with a deep V-neck which exposed a bit of my cleavages, but I didn't care I love the dress. I mean who wouldn't? it was a long flowing dress with a slit down to my mid thigh, since it had to do with Spring and it was a simple dress I didn't have to do much makeup no veil was required and I had to go barefoot. I felt bad for Jasmine that she didn't have to wear this dress for the Showcase when it was Jasmine's turn to go out for the second time, I stepped out showcasing spring wedding dress. it was surprising to see that the Auditorium I saw as blue and black was well lit and there was a stand on the stage covered in flowers, I did a little catwalk on the runway and then went back to the stage and stood in front of the flower stand giving the audience a full View of the dress.
" that was awesome, I never thought I myself could do that and it seem the dress was made especially for you," Jasmine said as I went back to the dressing room
" alright UK, go over and change to the swan," Emy said to me. this one was a long-sleeved wedding dress, the top part was made of lace while the down was covered in feathers, a fancy white pin was clipped on top of my head. I wore a wedding ring on my left finger and I held a beautiful bouquet of flower, this was a true bridal attire. "you look as if you're going to get married right now," Skye said to me "the glitters lined below your eyelids make you look like a bride crying on her wedding day," Hazel said to me "thank you so much guys," I answered blushing there were "oohs" and "ahhs" when I went out. I just wished I could see Jade I wonder what he thought of this dress. At the end of the show, we all changed into our original clothes and said our goodbyes. I was expecting to see Max but instead it was Scott driving with Jade at the back seat. "you my dear are a very naughty girl," Jade said as I went into the car "what have I done now?" I asked him. "do you know what those wedding dresses did to me?" he asked "no tell me,"
" I will rather show you honey," he said it was then that I noticed that the privacy hatch was on, "now you know what I'm going to do to you," he said smirking.
With tousled hair, smeared lipstick, rumpled clothes and a satisfied smile plastered all over my face, I went into the house with Jade right behind me. I was exhausted from the Showcase and what took place in the car, I was literally dragging myself up the stairs, I already had a to-do list for the night on my mind already.
It was very simple, once I get into my room I'll take a long bubble bath, no need for scented candles and petals, just a long soak and then I'll eat the fruit salad I made in the afternoon and kept in the fridge. Then I'll lock my room and sleep for a long time, I planned on making Sunday my lazy day. It was a wonderful plan but when I got into my room, I knew that none of the things I planned will take place tonight. Sitting on my bed were Tiffany, Ariel and Xiao Ling,
"What on earth are the three of you doing on my bed?" I asked
"Shhhh… we are going to be the ones asking the questions around here," Tiffany said holding me by the shoulders and making me sit on my reading chair.
"Guys please I'm so exhausted, why not come tomorrow? I promise to answer all your questions," I told them
"Absolutely not! We are not leaving you until our questions have been answered to our satisfaction. Understood!" Ariel said to me
"Fine ask your questions but if I faint from exhaustion…" I was saying
"I'll call Jade to kiss you and you'll wake up," Xiao Ling interrupted And They All Laughed.
I sat there folding my hands over my breasts watching them, "are you done laughing? If not then I can still wait for you guys to continue," I said to them
"Don't be so dramatic," Ariel said
"Look, I don't have the energy for all this, I am so exhausted…"
"From fucking my brother?" Tiffany cut in "that's it, all of you out!" I took off my shoes and chased them out of the room
"We will be back tomorrow, make sure you rest well so that you can answer all questions," Xiao Ling said as I shut the door behind them. I took a quick shower, changed into a pair of shorts and a maxi sweater and went downstairs to eat my salad. I had worn a pair of socks just to reduce the sound of my footsteps, I quietly went to the kitchen and took my fruit salad from the fridge and a fork and turned to my room.
I wasn't doing anything wrong but I don't know why I was walking on tip toes. when I got to the living room, the light suddenly came up and I froze on my track "what the hell were you doing in the dark?" Jade asked
"no… no… nothing. I wasn't doing anything" I stammered
"then why were you tiptoeing?" He asked
"tip… tip… toe? who said I was tiptoeing? I was just walking quietly so that I won't disturb anybody," I said
"what's that in your hand?" He asked and I hid the plate of salad behind me
"Oh this? Pfft…it's nothing." I told him
"let me see what you are hiding?" he asked
"it's nothing I swear!" I told him
"then if it's nothing why are you acting so weird and why are you hiding it behind your back? he asked coming close to see what I was holding
"fine if you insist, I'm just holding a plate of food"
" what food? I remember you telling Hannah not to make anything for you, then what food?"
"Oh you know, just salad. I made it before leaving in the afternoon"
"why didn't you say so? come let me join you"
"hell no you are are not tasting my salad"
We kept arguing about the salad until Tiffany came downstairs, " for the love of God don't you two sleep? You know there's a master bedroom upstairs for the two of you to do your thing, don't corrupt the mind of innocent people like us," she said
'‘ stay out of this!" we said to her in unison
"Jeez people, take it easy," she said climbing up backwards
"Now where were we? Give me the salad," Jade started
"You'd have to catch me first," I said and ran upstairs, with the help of my socks, I slide easily in the hallway, got to my room and locked the door, "goodnight honey, sweet dreams,"
"I'll get you tomorrow, bet me and see," he said and went away
