"Try them all on, Ms. Ercilia. We'll be waiting outside."
Ercilia wonders if this is what it feels like to have a mother-in-law. Seeing how things escalate to this, Ethan sure fits the label.
Apparently, he suddenly began to fill in the shoes of some kind of a fashion critic, judging which clothes suit her. He would run around the clothing store, picking items from here and there, before going back to the dressing room and handing them over for her to put on.
'I've got to give it to him, though. He knows a lot more about this than I do.'
Pulling the first one, a swishy mermaid-green dress with a full tea-length skirt, Ercilia makes an attempt to examine it. But it's not too long before she decides that she might really have to leave the criticizing to Ethan, considering her lack of knowledge and experience in this kind of stuff.
His judgment is an instant 'Nope' as soon as he peeks in for a quick scan.
