The wedding will be held in couple of months. Elle's friends at her workplace cant believe that she'll getting married. She never seems to ever dating at all.
She'll all work and hobbies. No man.
Today she is going to buy her wedding dress with her mother. Lee can't join. He said he'll go with whatever Elle prefers.
"Do you have dress which the color isn't white?" Elle asked.
Mother frowns. "Is this how you'll show that you still opposing the marriage? ... no white wedding dress?"
Elle sighs. "Lee hates white."
Mither unfrowns. "Owh. I didn't know that."
"White reminds him of his parents' expectation to be a Doctor—which he fail to deliver." Elle said.

"No." Elle said to her mother and then turns to the woman at the shop. "So? What do you have?"
The woman at the shop said, "... uhm... pink?"
"No. I hate pink." Elle said.
"Blue?"
"No."
"Red?"
"Let's see them. Blood kind of red, if it may." Elle said.

"Ah. Yeah. That too." The woman nods.
"Will your marriage become bloody?" Mother asked.
Elle laughs. "I don't know. You're the one who pick the groom. We'll see."
Mother sighs. "Oh God, why did You give me a woman as my first child? My second is not this bad."
"Owh, come on, mother. You raise me to be bold."
Mother smiled. "Put the blame on me. You're good at it."
Elle laughs. She hugs mother. "See? I told you, kids are nightmares!!"
