The second one.
Hammer
I concur. Your curves are banging.
Rix
Option two is the winner.
Tally
You look great in both, but the second one makes you look like royalty. QUEEN HEMI.
Shilps
^^^Agreed.
A message in my private chat with Shilpa follows.
Shilps
Dallas bought the royal blue dress, didn’t he?
Hemi
Yes.
Shilps
It’s gorgeous. He has great taste for someone who wears so much plaid.
Hemi
He does.
Shilps
How are you feeling about tonight?
Hemi
Do you have time for a quick call?
Shilps
Of course.
I hit video call, and her beautiful, comforting face appears a few seconds later.
“You freaking out?” she asks.
“I’m so nervous, Shilps. So, so nervous. All these people…it’s hard. And Dallas—we are sleeping in the tiniest bed, and we made pie today, and it should not have been sexy, but it was, and I’m so conflicted.”
“Oh, my badass best babe, I’m sorry I’m not there to hug you right now.”
“I’d probably get emotional, so it’s better this way.” I’m usually so good at staying in control of my emotions. But not today.
