Chapter 39 "The third wreath"

Lydia

"I don't like anything!!" I said

"Ugh!!" Vicky did slapping her forehead

"My sister you have to choose something. We don't have much time, we have so many preparations for your wedding dress. It needs some time to be sewed.." Anastasia said

"For God's sake!! You have seen every lookbook from all wedding brands and you didn't like anything!!" Vicky said indignantly

"It's not that they are not beautiful, but.. they are not like the wedding dress I was dreaming of for my wedding with Mark." I said almost complainingly "That dress was fairytalish.. like it was made out of the most beautiful dreams.."

"Please for now choose something made out of satin or another fabric. I can't bear waiting anymore!!" Vicky complained

"My sister think about it again please.. we don't have much time.." Anastasia said more patiently

"I know but I want everything to be perfect. This is not just a wedding, it's my dream, a dream that I was having for so long!!" I explained

"We understand you completely my friend but you have to choose something. Otherwise I'm quitting, I warn you!!" Vicky said

Then we saw the maid coming.

"Mrs Lydia, you sister has come." She said

We were so absorbed by trying to choose a wedding dress that we didn't even hear the bell ringing.

"Yes tell her to come." I said

She nodded and headed to the hall.

"You will see that now Irene will come, she will tell you the same thing." Anastasia said "My sister I understand you completely, but we have lack of time."

"Yes but-" I started saying but I was cut

"My sister I found the solution!!" Irene said excitedly, running towards us

"What solution??" I asked curiously

"I fully agree without even hear about it." Vicky said

"What are you holding there??" Anastasia asked pointing at the huge box Irene was holding

"You can't imagine what I found!! Let me show you!!" Irene said excitedly again

She placed the box on the table and opened it.

A gasp escaped my lips when I realised what was inside.

"What is it?? Such a beautiful fabric!!" Anastasia said

"It's not just a fabric." I said and took the clothe outside of the box

I pressed it against my body feeling its softness.

"This dress reminds me of something.." Vicky said sceptically

"It does. It's the wedding dress I was preparing for my wedding with Mark some years ago." I said emotionally

"I didn't remember it a lot.. it was so beautiful!!" Vicky said "It still is actually.."

"Mum had done a great work on it!!" Anastasia said "I think only a few details were left!!"

"Yes.." I said caressing the fabric softly

"Lydia why don't you wear this one?? You had made it exactly how you wanted it. You were saying that it was the wedding dress of your dreams, remember??" Irene suggested

"Such a nice idea!!" Vicky said enthusiastically

"I like this idea too!! I think that I would never find such a beautiful dress, but it's a bit unfinished and I don't know if it's good to have the same wedding dress.." I said
