Black with red strips on the bottom
Loose, with an extra layer of net flowing around
It was... too plain
The search went on
So many colors, so many designs
And then I saw it
Not too plain, not to extravagant
It was special
Blue, green, with gold stripes on the bottom
I never saw any other dress like it
My heart began to beat covetously
as I made my hand made its way around the silky, rich fabric.
Two decorative flowers on the top.
A blue, greenish combination with riffles at the end
which made it seem elegant.
I loved it. I checked the price tag.
$350
Not bad. Eid is going to be a blast! I cant wait.
I ran to the counter, took out my money and bought the dress without thinking twice.
I stuffed it into the shopping bag. After buying 6 tubes of henna from the store next door, I ran hme with excitement.
When I entered the house, my nose filled with the aroma of strawberry cheesecake, apple pie, and chocolate muffins.
Eid was on Friday and everyone was getting ready for this exciting holiday.
After applying henna to both my hands and feet, I decorated the house and windows with lightings I made a huge banner that said EID MUBARAK in red and green glitter.
I admired my banner. It was beautiful.
Everything's going to be just perfect, I told myself.
