Chapter 8

• Chloe was waiting for me as I tried the last dress she brought out for me for the 9th time, exhausted was an understatement compared to how I was feeling,
• Taking a deep breath, I slipped the dress over my head and smoothed out the fabric. It was a pepper red silk long dress, with a v-neckline that delicately revealed a hint of my cleavage and a daring slit by the side that rose just above my knee.
• I came out of the dressing room to face Chloe's judgment. I couldn't help but feel a twinge of insecurity. Would Chloe approve of this dress? Would it make me feel confident enough to go on this date? Or would I end up retreating into the safety of my own home?
