Chapter 2 -- THE LETTER'S DISCLOSURE AND THE FORMULATION OF QUESTIONS

My white dress glimmers as the sun’s light coming from the window hit it. It’s so beautiful. Mom really had the best taste in dresses. I feel like a princess now.  My brown eyes really match with the color of my dyed hair. Well, I guess I find myself more attractive in my dark brown hair rather than the original hair color I have which my Mom told it was blonde.

I stood in front of the mirror seeing my full body. I’ve grown up. I looked like a real lady now, not a kid.

I remembered those friends of my parents who were telling me that every year, I’m becoming more and more beautiful, like a princess. Except for thanking them, I don’t know else how to respond  them as I was so flattered. Well, I was really fortunate for hearing those words than hearing those words which tell me ‘You don’t even got the eyes of Mrs. Susan or General Hector’ .

After Christina, one of the maids and my stylist, fixed my hair, she left me in my room and told me to wait for Mom here. I sat down at the corner of my bed, kicking my feet, while waiting. I remembered, I wasn’t wearing footwear. I’ve got so many shoes in my closet but I think Mom’s choice will be the best so, I’ll wait for her to choose one for me.

In just a few minutes, I heard again a knock on my door. It was Mom, I guess. “Come in,” I answered.

The door opened and I saw Mom and Christina enter my room. Christina was holding a shoebox. I stood up and showed them my appearance. I look at Mom, then to Christina and back to Mom. I gave her a broad smile.

“Look at you, your dress really fits in the shape of your body as well as, your hair matches with your brown eyes.” She stated as she came in front of me and give me a kiss on the forehead. She gave me  a genuine smile. Her long lashes really made her turquoise eyes look so dainty and beautiful. I really admire her fair skin and her lips. I wish I was a real Woodward and that her genes or Dad’s genes will past unto me, but I cannot do anything.  I can’t do miracles.

“Thanks, Mom. But, I think I look better if I got your eyes.” I said. She patted my shoulder and her gaze met mine.

“You’re beautiful just the way you are, darling. Even if we didn’t dyed your hair, you still look gorgeous.” She consoled me. I was a little bit comforted by what she just said.

I looked at Christina, who was standing near us, and the shoebox she was holding. “Mom, what was that?” I asked Mom. Mom gave Christina a nod and Christina immediately opened it as  a response. I saw, well of course, a pair of a really beautiful lady’s shoe inside it. Its a silver flat shoes with a golden bow at the center. It looks so beautiful as well. I showed Mom a delighted smile. “It’s beautiful, Mom.”

“I know. Wear it and let’s see how it goes with your feet.” 

I wore the shoes and it fit exactly with my feet. Now, I’m completely dressed. “It looks better now, Mom. You’re the best.” I looked at Mom who looked gracious in her sweet smile, then to Christina, who now standing beside Mom and also looked pleased with my appearance.
