Ashma was still not allowed to do heavy work. One or the other person was always hovering over her. If she would be in the wedding gown room, Priyanka would look after her. For almost a fortnight, Ashma would go to that room and hand stitch the gown herself. She would lie, she would sit on the floor, she would kneel on the floor, she would try different positions and sew the dress.
It was coming out beautifully. The tulips were sown. The lily cut bottom of the skirt was hemstitched. The rose sleeves were picot stitched to give them a resemblance to rose petals. The only work remaining was the ranunculus belt.
Working on her dress and planning to expand her business, the time flew by. It was the time for Chuseok, the Korean Thanksgiving. The whole weekend they would spend in their village.
