The morning was anticipated and everyone bustles awake for preparations, Mr Patton had been awake all night making design's and crafting footwears for his family so he was last to leave the house.

Mrs Patton took her kids straight to the district seamstress who was a very good friend of hers, in that bit had a special treatment.

Ahh that's so exciting, I'm happy that you get to the royal party who knows what may happen, I on the other hand I'm a plus one to a certain Lord they giggled as Lady Shivani led them to the back where already made dresses were lined.

Lady Shivani, a well known seamstress who worked on both men and female attires.

It's a delight isn't it replied Mrs Patton.

It is Lady Lydia, Shivani continued,

I didn't know of your invite, if you were a tad bit early today I would have reserved a pretty emerald dress for your daughter Olivia, you know lots of lords and ladies where invited and since this week business has been a great book,but however I do have the best floral pattern for your boy, come boy she motioned one of her workers to take Matt to another aisle.

After two hours went buy, Olivia made a fine pick, a beautiful pink dress, it taioed behind her in different net hue, she looked like a flower in bloom, it was not just elegant,she looked like a princess gapped in a garden.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree does it lady Shivani gasped in awe, you have made a fine Lady, Lady Lydia, very soon she would have a flock of noble suitors this one.

Mother you must try this dress, Olivia sparked in joy after several compliments,

left aside was Drae who had just picked the first dress that looked her size, in the gaze of Olivia the dress was pathetic.

Do you really think an ankle hemmed dress is on trend now D, come here Olivia said with great hesitation Drae followed behind, after 30 minutes of selection they picked a beautiful mint dress, it was plane though simple but it was elegant a little dim gold weaves at the flowing hems, an elegant embroidery, she was beautiful.

With great satisfaction everyone left the shop, now for the purses and kerchiefs for the gentlemen, they went to another alley after bidding goodbyes and after another hour they were done,they picked up some vegetables and fruits on their way and went to sea port to pick up fresh badge of sea foods.

The lone and wandering eyes of Drae never missed Mrs Patton, she watched in pity eveb after so many years she still held that gaze like yesterday and after a few minutes they went on their way home.

Mother where's Drae asked Olivia looking behind her.

What do you mean, she turned forcefully hitting the woman beside who was about to enter the local carriage back to their district.

Lydia groaned in exhaustion, where has she wandered off to now.

Olivia take Matt home, I would go look for your sister, leaving Olivia with the goods.
