Star Lady
"Alex!" I shouted once I was in his wife's boutique. "I'm over here Ella." Alex called from the staff room.
I walked in to see him towering over a piece of paper. "Stupid Kings taxes." He grumbled.
Alex looked up with a sigh. "Need anything Ella?" Alex asked folding the paper up.
"Yeah. I'm here for dresses for my stepmother, stepsisters and I." I replied.
He nodded and pointed at a rack of ball gown dresses. "Go get them then." He said rolling his eyes.
I trotted up to the rack. Purple for Drizella, yellow for Anastasia, and green for stepmother. Oh and pink for me.
I grabbed the dresses and brought them to Alex. "Ring me up." I said. He took the dresses and when he got to the pink one, he frowned.
"Sorry, I thought I reserved that. It's for a costumer whose coming in later today." Alex said.
"Here, Fairy Godmother!" He called. "Huh?" I questioned. "She refuses to be called anything else." Alex muttered.
A middle aged lady wearing a puffy white dress came running down the stairs.
She giggled and tapped his nose with a star tipped wand. "At your service." She said cheerfully.
Star woman motioned me to follow her. "I have just the dress!" She squealed.
We went to a round room with mirrors surrounding the walls. "Here you go!" She handed me a beautiful blue gown.
I took it and fit my body into it. "A perfect fit. Here are the shoes." She said and handed me glass shoes.
"Glass?" I asked. "It adds a regal effect." She said and fit it into a bag. "Alright. Your ready! Goodbye now!"
I turned and walked out but not before buying the dress. I'm coming back later but I might as well do some shopping.
I went to the market first for groceries and some other things. I got a bunch a fruits and vegetables.
Then I went to the barn. My friend works there and I told her I would help her out.
I walked up to see her on the phone. She motioned me to wait so I went to pet her horse.
I brushed the black and white fur and started braiding its white mane. Jenny sighed.
She ran a hand through her ginger hair, breaking apart the loose braid. Jenny put down her phone and smiled.
"I'm glad you came. I have calls to do so I needed someone to take care of Day." Jenny said coming closer.
She handed me a halter and a lead line. "Here, if you could brush him and or if you want ride him." Jenny shrugged.
Her phone beeped and she hurried back to the phone. "I have to take this." Jenny whispered.
I nodded and pulled the horse out of his stall. I started brushing him and then picked his hooves.
I brushed his mane and tail then put the saddle in him. "I'm going for a ride." I told Jenny quietly.
I led him to the field and hopped on. suddenly the horse took off bolting. I shrieked and tried to take control.
I growled in frustration and pulled back on the reins hard. He huffed in protest but slowed down.
He stomped at the ground angrily and looked towards a bush. I walked towards it and found a rabbit in it.
It ran and the horse whined and snorted. I got back on him and set back to the barn.
"How was he?" She asked smiling and patted his head. "He got spooked and took off running." I said.
Jenny laughed and nudged him. "My plan!" She laughed and smirked. I gasped and playfully punched her.
She giggled and I looked at the time. "Oh I have to get back. It's probably done." I shrugged.
She nodded and smiled a left. I ran back to the boutique and Alex sighed as I came in. "Something wrong?" I asked as I took the bag in his outstretched hands.
"Yes. Lily's picking up some new dresses and she's really busy. I can't eve have a minute of alone time with her." Alex said.
"I'm sorry." I said and Alex shook his head. "It's fine." He murmured.
