I admired my reflection in the mirror. The pretty pink bows that decorated the beautiful dress, the way the fabric shined in the light of my lamp. The delicate white lace that hung along the hem of the skirt. How I wish I could dress like this every day. I twirled, taking in every second of this moment before I heard a voice call me down for dinner.

“I’m coming just wait a second!” I replied as I hurriedly stripped myself of the dress, stuffing it into the deepest depths of my closet.
“Studying for the test again?” My Dad’s voice broke the awkward silence at the dinner table whilst I chewed on the tomato pasta.

“I will don’t worry dad.”
“That’s my boy.”
