Chapter Four

I sat on my small bed in the corner of my room lost in thought as I lay my hands on my chin. My head jolted up as I heard my name being called down the stairs.

"Rosy!! get down here" standing I took off down the stairs, I saw my mum.

I stood in front of my mum " Yes mum,you called me" she observe me discreetly and that got me suspicious.

" Why did you sign up for the competition and what happen yesterday" she exclaimed as she scrutinize my face. Yeah yesterday was indeed a sad day for me. After I had realize that my stupid boyfriend never even had a thing for me and my best friend who I took like a sister was sleeping with my boyfriend behind my back, yet still have the got to look me in the face all this while and act like nothing is wrong.

" Mum,ple....e..se let not talk about this now am not in the mood to remember what I went through and, and..." I stuttered trying to find the right word,Once my mum saw tears briming out of my eyes she grab my hands in hers.

"Oh,honey" she said her eyes filled with concern " darling in don't know what happen to you but what ever it may be just know that am always there for you and you are not obligated to work or join the competition for anyghing, am the parent here, I will work hard to provide for the both of us and also pay up our bills" then she wipe away the tears on my face"now look am about give Miss Eva some design to make a dress for you, the ones you have are a bit worn out now isn't it ?" She ask tugging at the cloth I had on were the shirt shad of blue was fading out, I nodded and wipe the last few tears away that was falling from my light blue eyes .

"Good, good" she replied my nod, then gave my hands a little squeeze and went of without saying a word.

I went back through the stairs locating my room, as I went in for my morning routine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After some minute I got down and walk straight to the living room were I saw my mum with some paper that had dress designs.

As she heard me approaching she raised her head and smiled tapping on the space next to her on the couch. I sigh and move closer sitting next to her .

" Darling here are some some designs, just choose one design out of it, am sure they will get you suitable dress when you get there"

I sigh again"so mum why are you even getting me the dress if they are going give me some over there?" In ask.

She took my hands and smiled at me " baby, you will need a dress for when you are going and for any other emergency , moreover I would like you to look dazzling, I would'nt want them belittling you because of your worn out dress"

I grunted as I took my hands from hers " mum, we don't even know if I will get chosen, you are already spending so much, you need to save so we can pay up some bills and not worry about me" I said looking her in the eyes.

She took my hands again " let hope you get chosen and i don't really mind as far as am spending the money on my princess,it doesn't matter"

" Thank you so much mum" I smiled at her in gratitude.

" O forget it, if I  don't get a dress for you my baby, who would "she replied with a warm laugh.

I collected the book from her contemplating on what to choose as I was flipping through the pages.

My jaw drop as I saw a dress, it was baby blue and it kind of complemented my eyes , it look fitted up to the waist but flowed down after like a ball gown with a slit at the front, the sleeves were long and tight which got to my ankle, there was a silver ribbon  that was tied into a bow at the back and silver bottoms lined the bodice at the front.

" Mum, this one is so perfect" I exclaim as I showed my mum , tapping on the one I picked. She stare at it and smiled 

" Honey you have chosen well, the dress is indeed very perfect maybe we should choose that so you can wear it on your first day , you will look elegant and ravishing " she said as she took the book from my hands " here let me go show it to Miss Eva the seamstress you can take you food, i left it  in the kitchen maybe we can even choose another dress later"

I wish at my mum as I shake my head" I won't be needing another dress mom this one should be okay, I will use my former once"

She ignored me as she took her purse and walk to the door turning the handle and heading out but no before sending me a warm smile.

I returned the smile and walk to the kitchen to get my food. Even tho I was heartbroken, no i never inlove I shouldn't be heartbroken let me go again. Even tho I was in pain emotional from the betrayal of my best friend that will not stop me from eating, you do not say know to food I will have to finish the food and cry later. 

I located my food and headed upstairs to my room since I felt like eating there and I will be eating alone so there is no need to eat down here.
