After last nights let's say disaster, I haven't had a wink of sleep. The agonising, torturous feeling of losing something you held most dear to you is a curse. Every time I look at myself in the mirror, something is missing on my neck.
"Cecilia?" Valentina says in a worried manor.
"Sorry, yes?" I say.
"I've been calling you for some time now, is everything ok?" She questions.
"Of course, just adjusting to the change of scenery," I laugh.
"Mother says you should get dressed, after breakfast you will never guess where we are going!" Valentina says excited.
"Where?" I reply.
"The Modiste!" She shrieks so loud my ears were ringing.
"The Mod-what?" I say confused about what exactly she was saying.
"The Modiste? Gown maker?" Valentina says.
"Still never heard of one.."
"Don't worry you will today!" She says.

After Breakfast

"Ensure that the girls will be back by tea, and here is a cheque for any of their expenses," Richard whispers to our chaperon.
Is this a fairy tale?
"Come along now," Valentina says leading me to the Carriage.
We both take a seat opposite one another.
My heart was racing. This can't be real!
The whole carriage ride was just laughter and chaos.
"..and you will never believe what happened next-" Valentina was interrupted.
"We have arrived,"
A screeching squeal was released by the awfully enthusiastic girl opposite me. (Valentina)
"Is this really a big deal?" I Mutter.
"Only the biggest deal ever!" She replied.
I stepped out the carriage and glanced up.
It was a palace of its own. Magnificent gowns and pumps all lined up in the rear windows of the boutique. I've never been to a place like this
It's a young lady's dream...
