LOVE AT LAST (Back To Reality)

Chapter 20

Next day (day before graduation)

Last night, I would say was the best night of my life, well unless anything else is done to top that but I mean....who knows?

Tomorrow is graduation and I'm sooo excited, notice I put extra o's on it.

Anyways..... my mom's forcing me to go dress shopping, what can I say the woman likes her dresses.

And today I'm getting to meet Blake's cousin, I'm also really excited for that, and I also have exciting news but it's for Blake not you.

"Are you ready?", my mon asks as I was sitting on the couch, as always.

"Yep"

"Ok, so I have most perfect idea for a dress"

"Can we please wait till I get to the store to be tortured", she chuckled.

We left the house and pulled out of the parking lot.

We arrived at the store a few minutes later, "Welcome to Julia's Boutique", a middle aged woman said as we entered.

"Hi", I awkwardly replied.

"Is there anything I can help you ladies with?"

"Uhh...tomorrow's her graduation and I want her to have the perfect dress"

"Any specific colour?"

"Blue...maybe?", Mom looked at me.

"Blue sounds lovely"

The lady went in the back room.

"So... you and dad, huh"

"What are you talking about? we didn't do anything"

"Oh no, I just wanted to say that, what I meant was what's going on with you guys?"

"We're ok, I mean he's been a little distant"

"Yea, I've noticed, I hope it's not what I think it is"

"That depends on what you think it is", mom cocked an eyebrow.

"Nothing, nothing", the lady came back with 4 pairs of blue dresses.

"Ok, so I think you might like these, try them on and see which one is perfect for you"

"Thank you"

Mom and I went over to the dressing room, she sat on the bench waiting while I went inside, I took off my clothes and tried on the first dress.

The dress fit okay at the top, but it couldn't pass my stomach.

"It can't fit!", I yelled to my mom.

"Try on the others!", she yelled back.

The second dress, well let's just say it didn't go on at all.

The third dress, I mean it went on but it just wasn't me.

I went outside to my mom to hear her opinion, and I regretted it, she began to chuckle"why is it...so..big", she said as she laughed her head off.

"Haha", I went back into the changing room.

And finally, the fourth dress, it wasn't too big, it went over my stomach, and it was really pretty.

It was a short, flowy, navy blue dress, it wasn't to plain or to out of the way.
