My Darling I am no More

chapter 28 The Dress Dilemma

From the next day on, Arthur kept his distance because he felt embarrassed to face Eliza due to the novel. Arthur was also conflicted with his own feelings, but for Eliza, things were normal since Arthur kept ignoring her like last life. So these things were normal for Eliza. She took a deep breath.

After class, when Eliza and Clara went to their hostel room, they saw Emily walking here and there in the room. Both Eliza and Clara became confused, and on the side, Daisy was just shaking her head. When they asked, they learned that Emily's birthday was very soon, and she liked a new designer whose dresses were trending. But it was hard to contact her. So Emily was panicking because she had told everyone she was going to wear that new designer's dress on her birthday, and now she was stuck. Eliza and Clara became interested and looked for this new famous designer on the internet. Daisy was just playing with her mobile and kept saying, "What is the big deal? A dress is a dress. She can wear any." But Emily said people were going to make fun of her. Because getting that designer's dress was a challenge because they officially didn't launch their designs yet, but people liked her designs when they saw the recent fashion show. Because they also participated in this competition. And everyone knew about Sofia Hall. Her family was in this industry, but she opened her own company in another city and created it by herself without presenting her company as a branch of their main family company, "THE HALLTREATS".

When Eliza and Clara saw the information about the new designer that Daisy showed them, Eliza was amazed. Wasn't that her sister Hazel? Eliza thought that Hazel joined that company a few months ago, so how rapidly did she grow? No matter what it was, that made Eliza very happy to see people liking her work. So Eliza put her bag on a chair and went to call. Meanwhile, in that room, Emily, Clara, and Daisy were talking about the designer. When Eliza called her sister Hazel, Hazel picked it up within minutes. Both sisters talked for a while, then Eliza requested Hazel's help if she was free. Without even thinking, Hazel said yes. Then Eliza told her the whole story. Hazel became joyful to learn that her sister's friends liked her work, and she promised Eliza that she was going to make a pretty dress for her friend. And Hazel told Eliza the good news that she was soon coming to the capital city because of a fashion competition and that she was going to meet Eliza and her friends. After talking for a while, they hung up. Eliza didn't want to promise Emily anything without asking her sister. So when Eliza got Hazel's approval, she went inside the room to give Emily a very cool surprise. When she entered the room and said to Emily, "Don't worry, I will get you the dress from the designer Hazel," Emily became so happy and hugged her. But Clara and Daisy looked at Eliza and asked her how. So Eliza gave them a smile and said calmly, "Because Hazel is my sister." First, they didn't react, but then Emily shouted, "You're kidding, right?" And Eliza shook her head and said no. And told them that Hazel was going to meet them very soon, then they had to look and then believe. After that, Daisy, who was first not interested, bombarded Eliza with lots of questions about Hazel. Eliza told them Hazel's full biography, skipping a few things that were not good, like the story of Regina. Like that, after talking a lot about Hazel, they went to sleep.
