Chapter 29

I stared at myself in awe, I look way older than I really am with all of this make-up. My maid smiled at me before fixing a few things up. Once she was done I thanked her, telling her what a marvelous job she as done. Her eyes brightened up at that and she returned her thanks before silently leaving my room, leaving the door open as my parents walked in. My mother smiled softly at me, "You look stunning." she whispered.

I smiled even more, "Thank you."

My father chuckled and held up a bag, "We got you something...didn't have enough time to wrap it." I gently took the bag and placed it on my bed, I then looked inside. I gasped as I pulled out the set of maroon gloves. On the tops of each they were covered in silver sparkles that faded as they went down. Just like my dress' sparkles are; they're beautiful. "Thank you!" I beamed, slipping the gloves on. My parents grinned, "No, what about shoes?" my mother asked.
