Giant sparkly peach

I'm tired and want to go home and sleep. I miss my bed. What if there is a charity ball. I can put on some dress and go. But no Kristina want me to try all the dresses in the shop. They want to find the perfect dress for me. I love shopping  but  not when you are trying dresses for  the past 2hours. And let me tell, you each dress weighs a ton. My body aching with trying all the dresses.

But no, mama and Kristina they find one dress too revealing while another too conservative. One making me look too big for my age and the other making me look childish. One is too blue or one has too many ruffles. I think they are excited because this is the first time I'm attending  some business party or event.

After trying millions of dresses they both agreed on a scalloped white lace off-the-shoulder short sleeves with peach tulle floor length long ball gown with lace appliqued hemline and court train. It looks lovely, but it weighs as much as an elephant. But I didn't dare speak up, I don't want to try dresses for another hour or so. Atlast they both agreed on this dress.

Next day at school during lunch, I'm sitting with Ryan and Sophie.

"Ryan, Are you coming to the charity ball this weekend?"

"Duh, My Dad is hosting it and I think you should also come Sophie." looking at Sophie.

"Charity ball!! I never attended one. I will definitely come. But you guys know about my curfew!!" Sophie asked with a worried expression.

"Dont worry, i will make sure to send you home in time." I assured her.

Sophie came over to my place and we got ready for the ball. I wore my peach colored tulle dress and straightened my curls  and tied it into high bun and placed pearl clips to hold my bun in place. While Sophie wore purple coloured floor length dress with beaded bodice and sweetheart neckline complimenting her olive skin.

After reaching the venue. I sat at a table with Sophie and sipping my Raspberry frizzy. These business events are so boring except for the food. My parents introduced me to some of their clients and friends.

After introducing me to everyone. Dad and Robert went to speak business with some business partners.While mama and Emilia are busy chatting with the other ladies.

Ryan came wearing a deep blue suit.

"This party is so boring." Come, let's go and dance. Who wants to dance with me first?" Asked excited Ryan.

"You know that I can't dance, you guys go ahead" said Sophie. It's not like she can't dance but I know she is feeling shy. Sophie's father is a manager in an ad agency and her mom is a nurse.

I went with Ryan to the dance floor. Only few people on the dance floor. It was fun to dance with Ryan. Joking around,  making funny expressions  and doing weird dance moves. I can see people looking at us, but who cares. I know we are the only odd ones here.

I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"Can I have a dance with the beautiful lady" stood Jason with his famous smirk, extending his hand in a black suit and crisp white shirt where the top 2buttons were left open giving a peak of his toned body.

Nodding at Ryan I placed my hand in Jason's.

He placed his hands around my waist. He looks me in the eye and said "You look like a giant sparkly peach do you know that?"

"And you look like the fattest panda I have ever seen" and I stomped his feet with my heels smiling.

"This is not fat darling, these are my muscles and girls die to be near me, you should consider yourself lucky having a dance with me".

"I'm not one of those dumb girls, who dont have better job than fangirling over you."

He pulled the pearl clips holding my bun. Soon the hair came loose.

"What are you doing? Why did you ask me to dance with you? You just want to mess my hair right?" My face turned red with anger,  It took me a hell lot of time to make that bun and my upper arms are still paining from the hardwork.

"You look good with your hair open, and you remind me of the ghost I saw in movie last night" he said smirking.

"I so wish to be a ghost and haunt you for the rest of your life"

His gaze shifted to something behind me and his face immediately brightened up. I turned back to see Jessica in black sparkly sequin open back dress with high thigh slit and lace appliqued V necklace with spaghetti straps and she looked sexy with that bright red lipstick and smokey eye.

"Go your girlfriend is searching for you. I don't want to deal with her jealousy now." saying I walked back to Ryan and Sophie.

I noticed that Jason and Jessica are now dancing  to slow music. They looked great together.

Now we three musketeers don't have any other work to do except stuffing ourselves from all the food. This party is so boring except for the food. I noted myself to never attend business party again.

"Guys I have to go, It's way past my curfew. I will take a cab and go" said Sophie standing up.

"No, I will ask the driver to drop you and come back." I told her.

After waving goodbye to Sophie, we walked back to our table. The party continued for few more hours. I'm with Ryan the whole time.

I walked back with my parents to our car. I just want to go back home, change to my pjs and sleep on my bed. Sleeping is my favorite hobby. My parents are discussing about some new project and I dozed off to sleep.

I woke up startled hearing a screeching sound and feeling my body sway with sudden impact. My mind went numb seeing our car roll over. Tears coming out of my eyes as I felt sharp pain in my left hand and my ribs. I want to shout out loud but I'm not able to. I turned my head to see mama unconscious and blood flowing on the side of her face. I can hear panic filled dad's voice calling me and mama from the driver seat. I want to reply him that I'm okay but I'm not able to move my lips. It's like I am frozen, and more tears spilled out of my eyes. The side of my head started to hurt like hell..I raised my hand to the part where it's paining and was shocked to see the hot blood on my fingers and soon darkness engulfed me.
