"It will expose all your back. No." Demilade disagreed and she nodded and then scroll away from that picture.

"I love the design on this."

"I thought you want a ball gown?"

"Yeah, but let's pin this one. We might come back to it." Demilade just shrugged.

"How about this one?" He pointed to the screen of the iPad.

Lola stared long at it. "I am not so bursty so, it won't really look good on me."

"I don't think so." He said looking at her chest.

"You're a pervert, Demilade." She said laughing. "And the answer is no. It's not my type." Then she scrolled the picture away.

They kept scrolling, contemplating, and commenting on each of the dresses.

"This one looks..."

"Too churchy." Demilade deadpanned. "And I don't like it."

Lola erupted into laughter looking at Demilade expression. She wasn't picking it either. She just wanted to pull his legs a little.

"I know. I was just pulling your legs." She told him, chuckling.

Demilade frowned at her and then rolled his eyes. Then, he scrolled that one away but it happened to be the last one.

"I guess that's all," Lola said dropping the tablet on her leg.

"Yes." He replied. Then he picked the device from her leg. "I had thought this will happen so, I made a call to a friend in London. She told me about her Italian friend in Italy and that's where I and the guys got our suit and shoes."

"Wow! You never told me that."

"Because you won't want to know the price of it." She rolled her eyes and wave it off. She really doesn't want to know.

Demilade smirked and opened his Skype app. After a few seconds of tapping, a lady with strawberry blonde hair and baby pink lipstick on her lips appeared on the screen. She was smiling from ear to ear inside a brightly lit room. They could see the mannequins at her back. She also has a tape rule on her neck.

"Hi, Hailey," Demilade said.

"Hi, Darlington." The white lady greeted cheerfully. "How're you?"

"I'm good. And you?"

"Definitely feeling great. Thank you."

"That's good. Hailey meets my fiancée Lola." Demilade introduced Lola who was sitting beside him.

"Hi, Lola."

"Hi, Hailey," Lola replied waving slightly at her. The lady's smile was contagious and she couldn't help but grin back.

"She is beautiful, Darlington," Hailey commented looking between the both of them.

"Thanks, Hailey." Demilade and Lola said at the same time.

"So, Hailey, I don't want to waste much of your time. I know you are busy. So, about our discussion last time.... "

"Oh! Yeah! You haven't got any dress yet?" She was asking Lola and she nodded. "Don't worry sweetheart, you're covered. Do you have any particular style or design in mind?"

"I'll love to have a ball gown with something beautiful. No real design in mind." She replied.

"Hmm." She hummed, nodding. "I understand. Okay, let's take a look at some of the gowns we have here." She left her position on a stool and entered another room with few people walking around. "So, this is the fitting room, let's see if you'll see what you want, Lola." She tapped something on her screen and the screen divided into two. "Those are videos of some dresses. I will give you time to take a look at it."
