"Monsieur?" If I remembered his words correctly. It sounded like he won't finish the dress on time. She is his daughter, but there should be a reason as to why he couldn't meet up to Madam Adelle idea. I'm pretty sure it's due to the small amount of people helping Monsieur at the shop. "Was the reason why you can't make this dress due to Madam Adelle being the only one that can help at the shop?"
"Yes." Monsieur Dubin nodded. "Even with or without her, this dress won't be completed. We're quite shorthanded as of now, my wife and I aren't as young as Adelle to finish both the customer's and her wedding dress." His mouth formed a line as he directed his gaze to the ground. "Adelle should have known that we have no time to create such a complicated design for her when we already have paying customers."
I could feel my hands tighten on the hem of my skirt. 'I can't just leave and not help Monsieur Dubin.' I raised my head to focus my gaze at him, "Monsieur."
He returned his eyes over to me, a look of confusion was on his face.
