“Whenever you want.

It's an honor to have you wear

my creations.

Is my brother with you?”

Did Niky think I was with Henry? Was that why she hadn't communicated with me? I responded immediately.

“Henry was only with me

for a few minutes”

Niky:

“Whaaaat?? And where did he go???

I was convinced you two

were together.

Everything okay with him?”

Me:

“Nothing happened and he said nothing.

He left right away”

Niky:

“Was Waylon with him?”

Me:

“He arrived with him, but left

a few minutes earlier”

Niky:

“I have no idea where he could be.

Maybe he went home

Talk to you later”

With the headache he seemed to have, it was likely he had gone to rest, but I preferred not to say anything more.

I spent that day unpacking my luggage and resting, which wasn't sleeping, because I still had trouble falling asleep. I heard nothing more from the Woollardy siblings.

I entered Niky's atelier and was pleasantly surprised to find my cousin Sara there. By coincidence, she had bought her dress from my friend and had come that day to try it on for the final adjustments.

“Dalina, how wonderful to see you!” exclaimed Sara with a big smile.

“Hello, Sara! What a surprise to find you here!” I greeted her while giving her a hug.

“I came for my wedding dress, thankfully it's ready now. I love this designer.”
