"Daddy!" My laughter died down as all of us stood frozen when a little girl entered the ladies' section, running towards me.
Right behind her was the counter lady, who was looking at me weirdly.
"Look, Daddy, how do I look?" Zaria said as she took a twirl, showing off her fairy dress from all sides.
"....."
I stood there frozen, looking at her blankly as no words came out of my mouth.
"Daddy?" Tilting her head in confusion, Zaria called me again.
"Yes? Yeah, you look beautiful, more beautiful than any princess that I have ever seen," ignoring all of them, I crouched down as I pinched both of her cheeks.
"Hehehe."
She laughed mischievously as I continued to pull her cheeks.
"Dadshy....itsh....hurtsh." As I kept stretching her cheeks, she mumbled.
"That's why I am doing it," I replied as I stretched her cheeks one more time before letting them go.
"Do you want to try more dresses?" I asked as I stood up.
