Chapter 10 - Chapter 10

Seeing a change in my mum's facial expressions, isn't she happy for me I thought to myself..

"Mum what's wrong aren't you happy for me??" I asked..

"My darling am actually happy for you am just reminiscing about some old memories my darling, come with me I have some gifts for you am sure you will love it" she said putting on a smile..

Well my mum thought me how to sketch beautiful designs and as well you could say I got my fashion designing skills from my mum as well...

Why is she taking me to the locked storeroom in our house, is getting thrilling I said excitedly in my head, she pushed the door open to my surprise it was well kept and extremely neat, well I never really bother to check what was inside the room since it was always looked, well the inside looked extremely simple yet uniquely eye catching... Noticing the amazed look on my face she said "Am sure you must be shocked, but this is not the main reason I called you here, go over there and open that squared shaped box.." she said while looking at me with an assuring smile, curiosity got best of me I walked quietly and steadily towards the box,while opening the lid which made a creaking sound when opening, I stood there with my mouth agape, I was shocked beyond words I guess I found a treasure I would say, it was filled with beautiful sketches though am extremely good at sketching but compared to this I felt extremely inferior it was clearly out of this world, imagining the final look in my head it felt magical, coming back to reality, it was my mum who taught me how to sketch right, wait woah finally it dawned on me just to be sure I glanced back at my mum looking who was looking at me with a subtle look on her face..

"Wait mum hope is not what am thinking mum??..." I said looking amazed..

"It is my dear I drew the sketches myself" she replied..

"Woah mum I guess you should be the one to compete instead, am sure you will win with ease.." I said happily....

" Well you be the one to compete my child am not in my prime anymore, by the way where did you see the competition from because I know fully well it's hard to see a competition for both genders.." she asked..

Well deep down I knew what she said was extremely right most females who were popular in fashion designing are either working in thier father's company or that of the suitor (more precisely thier husband's) but this is from the Huston right it can't be fake right?? I questioned myself..

"But mum this is actually from Huston group of companies is one of their subsidiaries that's about fashion designing that's hosting it, yes now I remember the name of the subsidiary hosting it, Houston wears is the name of company.." I told my mum

" Well I don't think anyone would dare lie or spread false flyers about Huston group.." my mum replied with complete assurance gaze anyone would think she was the owner of the company...

" Yes mum no one would dare mum am so happy I could finally take a very first big step towards my dream" I said while jumping up excitedly..

"I love your enthusiasm my darling but you need to be calm and adjusting to any situations, because this is a very good opportunity to change your life, not everyone gets a life changing opportunity, but if you end up having one in life make use of it till it changes your life.." she said with a caring look on her face and one of her hands placed on my face looking at with the most assuring gaze I have ever seen on her face..

The ending part of her words got to me "if you end up having a life changing opportunity make sure to use it till it changes your life"...

"I will definitely utilize it.." I told her with a reassuring smile..

The she led me towards the box...
