" This one" I say,pointing to the one with the boat neck and buttons going down the lenght of it.
I guess it wasn't as similar as i thought the more i looked at it the more i realized.
The other one had a slightly wider neck line and two darts running across the front of it, its buttons were also smaller than the other one, huh.
It was pretty but i liked that one better.
She smiled, and her eyes crinkled at the sides as she smiled and tossed the other dress on the bed.
" I was gonna choose this one too"
"So, another interview?" I ask flopping down on the edge of the bed.
She slips on her dress a smile playing on her face
" Kinda" She says, her lips curving up into a smile and i expect her to continue but she doesn't.
"What do you mean kinda,?" I ask confused
She goes to stand infront of the mirror,struggling with the zipper.
Does that mean she finally got a job?
"I'll explain, but first come help me with this zipper, i think i gained about two pounds from the dinner last night."
I walk over to where she is standing in front of the huge mirror next to the almost floor to ceiling windows.
"So?" Our eyes meet in the mirror as i help zip her up hers glinting with mischief.
"So after dinner last night" She begins " As i was getting ready for bed ,i got a call"
She goes on to tell me how Mrs Patridge called her last night, just as she was about to go to bed telling her how she'd love her to come to her bakery to check it out because she was talking about how she also was going from interview to interview and she asked if she'd be interested in working at her bakery, she told her to come check the place out.
"Oh my gosh june bug, do you know what this means for me, for us" She smiled ,her eyes crinkling at the sides as she watched me her hands gripping the sides of my face , i smiled back.
This is good news, great news.
"She wants me to come work for her," She breathed out her smile growing wider as she spoke.
She turns us gently, so we are facing the mirror"That means no more interviews, and you have that lovely job William, can't you see baby girl,I feel like i can finally breathe things are looking up things are finally working out for us,we'll be ok…we are ok"
Her eyes are glassy,my throat feels itchy as she smiles at me in the mirror the crinkles at the side of her eyes deepening.
She presses a kiss to the side of my face "Let me go and whip us some breakfast, or do you want to have some of those leftovers from yesterday, i need some of that rice" I nod forcing a small smile i do not move until the sounds of her footsteps have completely faded and i can hear the clanking of pots and pans from the kitchen downstairs.
She needs this, We need this, I need this.
