After a few late nights and tons of hard labor, I managed to finish all prom dress orders before the dance without issue or without any sign of a lawsuit from that awful man. Even Miss Bubblegum has been staying out of my hair, though she was wearing a haughty look when she came in to pick up her dress, threw a snide comment or two my way as well, but she didn't torment me as she had before. Seems like my peace offering was enough to satisfy her for the time being.
My last order, for Chloe, was cutting it close, however, finished the day of prom, which obviously made her a little anxious, but once she saw the finished product, her face lit up with joy. I could tell she fell in love with it immediately, which made me very happy. It always fills me with satisfaction, knowing all my hard work is being appreciated.
"You can try it on if you'd like. Then, I can see if any quick adjustments need to be made."
"I'm sure it'll fit perfectly. Thank you so much." Chloe hugged the dress close to her chest, smiling so brightly, it melted my heart. She then went to the dressing room to try it on. It's nothing more than a small area in the back corner of the store blocked by a thick, blue curtain, but I put some nice mirrors back there so customers could see how they look in the clothes they picked out, as well as a short, wooden stool to hold items or give the person a place to sit if needed. A standing, metal sign sits outside of the curtain, telling whether or not the space is in use or not. Chloe is sure to turn it to occupied before closing herself in.
When she emerges wearing the dress with an ear-to-ear smile on her face, I could hardly hold back a grin of my own. I even caught a hint of a smile on Phil's lips when Chloe couldn't resist a little twirl to see how the skirt spun. Her shy nature returned as she cleared her throat and smoothed the front of the dress before rubbing at her arm next.
"How does it look?"
"Like a perfect fit," I compliment truthfully, making her smile return.
"Thank you," she replies softly, keeping her eyes down somewhat, when I remembered something
"Oh, that's right. I almost forgot. I have something for you. Just give me a second." Chloe watched me, surprised yet curious, as I went to the back room to grab a small box.
"What is it?" She questioned, coming closer as I opened it up to reveal a variety of colorful, fabric, flower hair-clips that I made myself. Majority are rose-shaped and come in light and dark pinks, red and burgundy, as well as some white.
