FIDs Everyday 3
The continuing story of my Medieval Fantasy characters....
the Dress Fitting
Meanwhile Naomi had all the girls over to try on their Flower Girl dresses.
She had been busy working on the dresses for weeks. She had chosen to make them blue, and had wanted to make them all the same, but since fabric wasn't available in the lengths she needed, she had to use several different fabrics...
"These fabrics are so beautiful!"
"And this ribbon is so pretty."
Bonnie tried on her dress...
...and Naomi handed her the flower wreath for her hair...
Judith already had on her dress and wreath...
"It looks so pretty."
There was still one dress left draped on the chair...
"Is this one mine?"
"Yes it is. But it's not quite finished yet."
Fay tried on her dress too...
"This one is for you, Paige..."
"What do you think?"
"It's really beautiful."
the Wedding Gown
The girls had been so preoccupied with trying on their dresses, that they hadn't really noticed the pale gold gown on the mannequin....until now....
"Is this your wedding gown?"
"Yes, it is."
"It's the most beautiful dress I've ever seen!"
All the other girls came over to look...
"I'd like one just like it when I get married."
"Me too!"
"We all would!"
"Well, how about when that time comes, I let you borrow this one?"
"Okay. Sounds like a plan. Now we all just need to find someone to marry."
Telling Naomi
Naomi had put away her wedding dress after the girls left, just in time before Baron got home...
"So, what did your Mother want?"
"She told me that she was seeing someone..."
"..that she wanted me to know, and hoped I would be good with it."
"Well...that sure explains a few things."
"What? How do you mean?"
"Well...she's been different this past while..."
"She seemed happier....lighter....."
"Didn't you notice?"
"No....not really."
"So, what did you tell her?"
"That I was happy for her...."
"Anyways, she invited us for dinner tomorrow evening so we can meet him."
"That sounds wonderful. I'm really excited to meet him."
"By the way..... how did the dress fittings go?"
"Good...."
"The girls loved their dresses..."
"But...I think next time I should have them come just one or two at a time."
Introductions
Baron and Naomi arrived for dinner.
..and Miho started with the introductions....
"Dominic..."
"...this is my son, Baron..."
"..and Baron, this is my good friend..Dominic."
Dominic offered his hand in welcome..."I'm honoured to meet you sir.."
"Your Mother has told me a lot about you, and I'm hoping that we can become good friends."
"The honour is all mine, Sir."
"And this is my fiancé, Naomi..."
"It's so lovely to meet you my Lady."
"The pleasure is all mine, Sir."
Dinner
They all sat down to dinner...
Baron and Naomi were on their best behaviour.
..feeling a bit awkward, curious, yet determined to like this man.
But they soon relaxed...
...realizing they had nothing to be concerned about.
Dominic seemed rather reserved...
....yet quite personable....
It became clear to Baron that his Mother really liked this man, and he her.
Miho was just relieved and happy that everything seemed to be going well...
She had hoped that the two men in her life would get along...
..and hopefully eventually become good friends.
Everyone was getting along nicely...
...just as she had hoped.

Dinner together had been a success.
Then it was time for Baron and Naomi to leave.
"I'm so glad you could both come."
|
|
'We've had a really good time."
'Yes, we did."
"It was really nice to meet you."
"Like wise. We'll need to do this more often."
"I'll look forward to it."
