What happens when jealousy come in-between family? Dae, Serene and Becca have to face their own hardships. Although they have each other, is sisterhood enough for them to get through tragedy, trials and betrayal?
The Gala was in a week and I still didn't have a tux. I thought I could find a nice tux before meeting Mike and Lee to play basketball. There was a nice tuxedo shop nearby, so I wanted to check it out. It was chilly outside so I made sure to take my coat with me. The shop was located in the plaza downtown. Thankfully it wasn't far since I was going to meet Mike and Lee later. I parked my car on the ground floor and walked to the elevator. Once I reached the twelfth floor, the doors opened. The floor was tiled in fine polished wood, which made every step echo as I walked to the front desk. The windows were so huge that it made the natural light from outside dance across the luxurious lobby. Suede sofas surrounded a large table with complimentary treats and champagne. The dressing room doors had a pearl like color with golden handles. The desk was made of amber-colored stone and a marbled top. The ceiling rose at least 100 feet high.
"Hello sir, welcome to Olivier's Tuxedo Shop. Is there anything I can help you with?" A young man walked up to me with a smile on his face. I have a feeling that he gets paid commission from his eagerness.
"I'm looking for a tux." I said.
"What's the occasion if I may ask?"
"I'm attending a Gala in about a week so .....
"Wait! The Gala Becca Yi will be hosting? Mrs. Yi from Top Fashions Inc.?" I was startled when he clapped his hands, four people rushed towards me as if he was conducting a musica of some sort.
"Sir, this isn't just an event, it's going to be the event of the year."
Running around like chickens with their heads cut off, I was suddenly swamped to my neck with clothes. "Alright sir, just try these on and we can make the necessary changes and alterations." Walking to the dressing room, I tried on several suits that were very nice but expensive. Looking at each one in the mirror, I couldn't decide. Each one was better looking than the last in my opinion. After looking through the huge pile of clothes I tried on, I was able to narrow it down to five since they were the same price. Hopefully, I can have it figured out before the Gala. After paying for the tux, I had to come back the day before the Gala for a final fitting since there were alterations that needed to fit my physique better.
On my way to the car I froze when I saw Dae with a strange man. Making sure it was her, I had to make sure I wasn't imagining things. I rubbed my eyes as if my mind was playing tricks on me. Maybe I didn't want to believe that she was dating someone. I felt anger when she gave him a bag of food and tied a scarf around his neck. Watching them from afar made my blood boil. He appeared to be older than her. His hair was done very nicely, he probably had some form of dye mixed in to hide the grey strands. I don't like him. It was nothing he did precisely, it just looked as if he had her to himself and I didn't like it. Standing there looking stupid, smiling at her like some lost puppy. Unmanly is what I call it. Holding my breath behind pursed lips trying to refrain from losing my cool. My phone goes off and immediately I answered the incoming call while watching them talk.
