Chapter 443 - Shhhh

Arlo expected that reply. He continued to zoom a little more and took a few more pictures of her.

Sam was amazed by his reaction but continued to finish his line, "But my like and your like are completely different."

Arlo looked at the pictures and spoke unhurriedly, "A thin line of difference."

Sam took a few steps ahead and called a little loudly, "Sky!"

Sky turned towards them and actioned both hands in air indicating, 'What's up?'

"Get in! It's cold." Sam replied.

Sky kept her both hands around her lips and said, "You too, It's colder on the terrace."

After saying, she glanced one last time at the tree and went towards the Harley mansion.

Sam smiled turned around to face Arlo whose eyes were still on Sky's tiny figure.

"She isn't my girlfriend nor a crush to define it as a thin line. She prioritized me than her fear. So in the list of my priorities, she will always remain at the top. With or without YOU around her."

Sam finished saying and left. Arlo stood there for some time thinking about numerous things.

'She prioritized me too than her fear.' He thought to himself. When Ryan called him for dinner, he went down.

All had dinner with David. Before leaving, Sam asked Sky, "Do you want to come and pick a dress for Mia? She is a flower girl."

"I will come!" Sky agreed right away.

"I will pick you up at ten. Rest early." Sam said and hopped in his car.

After sending everyone, Sky went to her room balcony. She worked on her laptop as she watched the view every now and then, before going to bed.

The Next day

Sky went to the Bridal shop with Sam and Mia. Peter and Elina were waiting for them.

They chose a few white dresses for Mia and tried on. She looked beautiful in all the dresses. "Mia! which one do you like?"

Mia looked at all dress and rested her eyes on Sky. "Sister Sky, which dress are you wearing? Handsome Sam said you always wear matching with Handsome Jai. I want to wear the same as your dress."

All looked at Sam. he ignored everyone's gaze and flipped the magazine pages.

Sky squatted down and tried to explain, "You are a flower girl. The flower girl wears a white dress the same as the bride. So we are picking white for you. If you want, we can match our outfit for the wedding reception."

Mia wasn't convinced at all. She looked at Sam for help but he didn't speak a word.

"Sister Sky! we don't meet or go out often. Can we please wear the same color dress? You also pick a white dress."

Sky heart melted hearing her request but how can she wear white. She wanted to convince her but Elina spoke, "Ms.Sky! It isn't mandatory for the flower girl to wear white. We will pick one from blush pink."

Mia thanked her with a faint smile, "Thank you Ms.Paxton."

Then she turned as she stretched her hand to hold Sky's hand and grinned at her, "Sister Sky, help me pick a dress."

Sky smiled and took her to the dress section.

Peter who was sitting with Sam glared at him, "Your niece is so biased."

Sam ignored him. He knew he didn't like Mia calling Elina as Ms.Paxton and just a faint smile to her. Whereas she called Sky as Sister Sky and spoke with her happily.

Sky and Elina looked all blush pink dresses but didn't like any dress and felt one dress as moderate. Mia tried and she didn't like it.

Sky looked at the manager, "Can you guys prepare the dress if I design?"

"Sure!" Manager replied.

"Please get me a paper and a pencil or pen?" Sky asked and soon she received it.

"Ms.Sky, Can you design?" Elina asked in doubt.

"Ms.Sky! We don't have time. The bridal shower starts at four and we have to buy a few things for it." Peter said.

Mia kept her finger on her lips, "Shhhh" silencing them to let Sky have her way.

Sam laughed looking at Elina and Peter's expression after Mia's shush. Sky had squatted near the coffee table and sketched. Mia and Elina watched her silently.

It took twenty minutes for Sky to finish with a front and back view of the dress.

Front, the length of gown was above ankle length for Mia to walk easily and backside it had trail matching bridal gown. She designed flower lace on the trail and kept the sleeves full as it was winter. To match her bridesmaid outfit, she added a bow. The upper part of the dress had lace and beads design details.

She gave the paper to Mia, "Do you like this?" Mia nodded like a chicken picking grain.

Sky smiled and looked towards the manager, "Please take her measurements. Add the pockets under this fold on both sides. Send the dress before Wednesday... Do you have tiara for kids?"

The manager took them to a different section and Sky chose one which went well with the dress. After selecting the shoes for her all went to have lunch.

Sam dropped Mia before taking Sky to a Bridal shower. Since the color code for the dress was white, Sky chose a cap-sleeved, cold shoulder short white dress. It had hallow lace detail near her waist and lower hem making her look stylish and stunning.

She accessorized with a star bracelet, watch, studs and white ankle strap heels keeping her two pendants on her neck.

Seeing her rotating her mobile all the way, Sam asked, "Why are you anxious? Nobody is going to eat you up."

Sky pondered and spoke, "You shouldn't laugh."

Sam broke into a smile.

"Hey! I didn't even say and you are already laughing."

"Shoot!" Sam pursed his lips and was ready to hear.

"I don't like girls gang. Tittle-tattling is too much and they say on the face like wow, you are so cool and blah blah then they will talk negatively behind the back. Upon that, I don't even know anybody there."

Sam understood what she meant but to change her mood he teased, "I thought you were a girl. Now I know why everyone around you is men."

"Bad joke!" Sky pouted and a mischievous glint flashed across her eyes, "Sam!"

Hearing her tone, Sam knew she was up to something. "What is your brain cooking?"

"Do you want to crossdress and watch the bridal shower?" Sky fastly finished it moved towards the door to keep her head away from him.

Sam slammed on brakes in front of the venue and looked at her speechlessly.

Sky continued, "Imagine in a white dress, I'm sure you will look a lot better than many many girls."

When she dragged 'Imagine', his subconscious mind imagined leaving his conscious mind at a loss. Seeing his embarrassed face, She burst into laughter.
