Soft Opening Day (6)

"It's done! Congratulations to us!" Sofia declared finally meeting everyone's gaze. 

The hand holding the kitchen shear slowly dropped to her side while each half of the ribbon hung freely on both ends of wooden stands. The tip of the ribbon was just a few inches away from the floor. The wind somehow made its way and gently blew the ribbons to flutter in the air. 

Her heart blossomed an emotion of indescribable thrill of excitement.

Subconsciously, Sofia glanced at her wristwatch and take note of the time. 

'05:25 AM, 24th of February... Far from the usual time to conduct a ribbon-cutting ceremony,' Sofia thought. 

Heck, citizens in district 7 were still tucked in their bed, snoring in their sleep! Other than them, the surrounding establishments were still closed while their owners were also taking their rest.
