Layla POV*
Today's the day where I surprise Kennedy with her dress. Ms.Barbara and I have been working together to get the dress I designed come to life. We were gonna surprise her at her house.
"You ready? I think she's going to be super excited", Ms.Barbara said
"Yes, I love Kennedy so I really hope she likes the dress"
The dress I made her was tight at the top then it starts to turn into a Cinderella poof at the bottom of the dress. It stopped a little bit below her knees. It was a neon yellow dress with sparkles and glitter on it.
"I know she'll love it, it's beautiful"
I grabbed the dress and stepped out the car. Ms.Barbara went and rang the doorbell. I stayed back behind the porch so they couldn't see me.
"Hey mom!", I heard someone say
It must've been Kennedy's mom/ Ms.Barbara's daughter.
"Hey beautiful. Where's Kennedy?"
"Upstairs in her room"
"Tell her to come here, we have a surprise for her"
"We?"
"Just call her down here child"
"KENNEDY", she called
A couple seconds later I heard Kennedy's voice. "Hi grandma"
"Hey baby, I have a surprise for you...you ready?"
"Yes"
"Come on out"
I stepped from behind the porch and walked up to the door holding the dress. The dress was hidden so someone had to unzip it before it was revealed.
"Is that my dress?!", she asked yelling
"Yes ma'am. Just unzip it", I said
She unzipped the dress and I watched her face light up. "OH MY GOSH! THIS IS FOR ME?!"
"All for you baby", Ms.Barbara said
"I LOVE IT!", she said taking the dress. "THANK YOU SOO MUCH LAYLA"
"Awww you are soo welcome Kennedy. Im soo glad you like it"
"No! I love it! Thank you Grandma, thank you Layla"
"This dress is beautiful. You did an amazing job sweetie", Kennedy's mom said
"Thank you"
"Well, we're going to let you enjoy your dress. I'll be back over here later okay?", Ms.Barbara said
"Okay, thank you"
"You're welcome"
"Bye Layla!", Kennedy said
"Bye Kennedy", I said waving
She ran back inside and closed the door. Ms.Barbara and I walked back to the car and got inside.
"You did amazing. Thank you for putting a smile on my baby's face"
"Thank you for giving me the opportunity"
She drove me back home then drove off. I walked in the door and called out, "I'm home!"
"Hey sweetie, come here! We're in the room"
I walked into my parents room and seen them packing.
"Where are you guys going?"
"We're going to Latrelle's last football game. It's tomorrow", my mom said
