Appoligizing ahead of time for the sentence and spelling errors to occur. I'm typing on a Kindle. So I think I put this story on "complete," but I wanted to try and add some of the storied the wedding guests could have talked about.
Thank you for the three reviews and the follow! I'm not sure who at the moment said what but I will check back later; the reviews made me smile. Story time:
Faith:
The crimson liquid was at a stand still. The table had moved along with the other friends and families laughter, making a move to try and tip over the Crystal wine glass, the intoxicating wine an inch a wah from peeking over the brim. The twenty two gear old seamstress looked up after checking that the wine was stable. How embarrassing it would have been to have royal wine tip over at a royal wedding? It would ruin her shop's reputation!
Peeking over Manuel's right shoulder, she could dimly see the royal table through her water braided hair. She had mentally cursed many times at her sister for not finishing the simple chiffon bun and putting the strings of hair into it. Her one consolidation was that her mahogany hair was slightly passed her shoulders enough so the hair would not frizzy. Her image worried her to no end. Especially her dress. For stars sake, she was suppose to be a seamstress for the best in the Common Wealth! Her pink dress was too pearly in material that it looked like the sky pink polish on her nails. The empire neck line showed her shallow breathing because her corset was on too tight, as a "hint" from her mother to find a husband soon. Manuel's ocean eyes caught hers and blood krept to her blushed-up face. She felt like a pepper: red, hot, and painless. She was beyond numb.
"Let's hear Faith's story on meeting The Lunar Queen. Or would you rather discard the answer?" Manuel seemed preoccupied with catching the sushi on his plate despite the offer. She took it.
"You mean besides in the New Bejing shopping plaza? Well, I suppose there was one time...though it really wasn't much." Faith knotted her straight hair in nervousness. "I was called up by her former-isn't she her former legal guardian?-anyways, where was I? I, uh, well you know how my shop is a family owned business?" She was sure she smelt of sweat. The others nodded for he to lead on. "Right, well, um, uh, oh yes so Linh Adri called in asking us to make some dresses. At first we, well, we weren't sure if we should to be honest with you. There was a, a uh rumor twirling about that the family had a cyborg step daughter..." She peered over Manuel 's black suit again in guilt toward the new Queen whose table was flooding in laughter. A device was being passed around.
"Anyways," Faith set her vibrating hands on her satin lap, "we had to accept the customer since we didn't have a reason not to, after all. Um, well we got to the apartment and we stayed there for some time until the Queen came. I mean-no disrespect to her majesty- we wanted to get out once we saw her. Neither of us wanted to make a dress for her. Now, I mean, well it uh, it would be an honor! But anyways, her little sister was quite happy to see her, quite sweet. The other sister didn't show as much interest...and neither did her legal guardian. Look," she huffed glancing around the table as if she was being interrogated, "when we saw her we wanted to get out. She wanted a dress but we made some excuse saying that we didn't have enough material. We could've always gone to the store to buy more but we didn't. We were suppose to be there for another half hour but we got out. End of story."
Luke, another, questioned her more. "Did the Queen expectant dress?"
"Um, well, yeah. What else is there to think when there are some seamstress in your apartment?"
Luke, the sand colored man, nerve further chance to answer because the Emperor's Royal Advisor made an announcement.
The new friend sitting at the round table stood up, Manuel offering Faith his hand.
Maybe outrun yourself out there is a good think, was the one thought that went through her head.
I May post a picture of how I pictures the dress, since I want to make it. I came back from the tombstone unveiling of my late grandpa, and Faith was one of the name on the tombstone so the end of this is dedicated to that and my grandpa who always put otheres interests before his, in which at the end of this chapter the character learns to do. I'm not too awake right now so the ratio to talk and description is probably really bad. With the frizzy hair thing, I have ling curly hair and it usually gets frizzy if it's not up so I used that. Oh, and I don't drink so the chapters may not be totally correct. I'm a sixteen year old girl, I make mistakes aka typo v this on a kindle. Hope you enjoy and sorry about the k ow quality. I tried getting some of 5b, facts eight from when the seamstress visited but I read the book May be four gears ago? I haven't gotten. Chance to really focus on the beginning but yeah. I figured the person sho mentioned husbands to Pearl I think would say the same Tina daughter.
