Chapter one: shopping
xXSakuraXx
We arrived at the bridal shop just before our appointment with the clerk began. "Wow only a week until the big day!" I took a deep breath in while Safaia nodded and we walked in. The sales women surprised me when she came in because she was young and seemed like she wouldn't have any experience. I asked for a gorgeous flowing gown that started as a pretty teal and developed into a dark turquoise. Safaia decided to ask for a mermaid styled dress that was sea-foam green; the color of her fiancés eyes. When they brought out my dress I immediately fell in love when I tried it on. My mother asked what the price was and I swear I didn't take a single breath until she was done talking. "Well it's a bit over your budget of $15,000 at the price of $18,000" I instantly look over at my mother and did my best attempt at the puppy dog eyes until she signed and said "Okay, anything for my little girl's big day." Safaia on the other hand was firing complaints about her dress "Does it make my butt look big? Do I look too fat in this dress? Get me a different size!" the clerks rushed in and out of the room about ten times before Safaia was pleased with what she saw in the mirror. We paid and left beaming with joy…at least on my part Safaia looked—um..happy? Anyways next stop, the accessory and shoe store!
When we arrived I asked them for some silver flats with jewels on the top and Safaia asked for some plain black high heels. While waiting for them to bring out our shoes I looked at the jewelry and got a silver necklace and bracelet to match my shoes plus a cute handbag to fit a dagger, a tazer and a small pistol. "You won't need weapons at your wedding!" My mother and Mrs. Threstle tried coaxing. "Well what if a crazy hobo bursts in shooting and shouting "I need 50 margarita pizzas! Then what? Then I need to taze him." I didn't listen and bought it regardless…hey, you never know. My shoes fit perfectly but once again Safaia wasn't happy with hers. I was walking around the store when I heard her scream "GO GET ME BIGGER SIZE. EVERYTHING HAS TO BE PERFECT!" and then I saw the heels fly into the wall centimeters from the clerks head. He stood there probably stunned then sprinted into the back room to get another size. Finally she was happy with the shoes and we left because she refused to get accessories.
All that's left to do now is make sure the location will be ready. "Wow we're almost married" Safaia stated "No shit Sherlock, and I can't wait" I replied rolling my eyes on the first part.
