"Is this really for me?" Evelyn couldn't help but ask while trying the dress.
Elizabeth nodded, "Yes. It's tailed- made for you. See whether it fits you well. Otherwise, I'll have it adjusted and then it should be no problem."
"It should be fine." Evelyn said, "Thanks to you, I'm now doing the job that I want to do. Although I haven't participated in the last production yet, I know it is good enough only by a look."
Then Evelyn raved, "It's so beautiful! I really haven't worn such beautiful clothes before."
Elizabeth chuckled, "Look at you. Don't overreact."
"I'm not." Evelyn said, "We've known each other for years. Don't you know my tastes?"
To move freely, she preferred to wear pants. In her wardrobe, there was almost no dress. Gradually, she didn't like dresses anymore. She felt that it wasn't convenient to wear dresses, and had to pay attention to the match. Most of time she didn't feel a sense of security while wearing dresses.
But wearing pants was different. Whatever shoes fit the pants.
"Isn't it because of your part-time job?"
"Well," Evelyn sighed. "I've really sacrificed a lot of female beloved items in order to make money. But..."
Evelyn frowned and said, "Elizabeth, will I look strange in this dress then?"
"Of course not," Elizabeth shook her head. "You are so beautiful. No clothes will look strange to you."
"Your words make me happy, but I still don't feel confident." Evelyn looked at the light blue gauzy bridesmaid dress and felt worried, "I seldom wore high heels. Will I even be unable to walk well then?"
"Why are you worried about that? It won't happen. Don't worry. You must be very beautiful that day."
"Well, you know how to make me happy."
"No, I'm only telling the truth, okay? By the way, I'll leave the wedding bouquet for you."
Evelyn couldn't help rolling her eyes at Elizabeth. "Please, are you pushing me to get married because you think I can't do it?"
Elizabeth chuckled, "It will happen sooner or later, won't it? Have you told Lawrence? Once you begin to date and you got graduated, it won't take long before you get married. Oh right, I haven't asked you yet. After listening to what you said, Lawrence must be very happy, right?"
Hearing that, Evelyn shrugged helplessly. "No."
