"Sir.... It's me, Diana Miller. You asked for me from Mrs. Brooks. May I come in sir?" Diana asked from the outside of the door..

"Yeah...come in." Mr. Lopez said.

As soon as Diana entered, she bowed a little to show her respect towards him and asked, "Sir, is something important that you have to call me just after you have reached here?"

Mr. Lopez looked at her and said, "Yeah. I have something to ask you for. Sit down first."

When Diana sat on the chair, Mr. Lopez continued, "Actually, this Thursday is the engagement of my daughter's best friend, Lucinda. She is also like a daughter to me as she grew up with my princess from their childhood...

But her engagement had been fixed very suddenly, so she hadn't prepared any dress. So my daughter requested me to ask you if you can design Lucy's engagement dress. You don't have to worry about anything. You just have to ask my assistant whatever you want, he will send all those things to you...

Just make the dress please. It's my daughter's request for my another daughter's special day. You don't need to worry about the upcoming project, you can give your work to your teammates. You just focus on this.."

Diana just stared at  Mr. Lopez for few minutes without saying anything like she was thinking over something really hard which led Mr. Lopez to think that it must be a negative response from her side which would make everyone sad which he didn't want.

So he said, "Diana... Think over about this once. I know that you already have many things on your shoulder but if the occasion is not so much important I would not pressurise you this much."

Hearing this, Diana came out of her trance and smiled at Mr. Lopez before saying, "No sir... I'm not going to decline the offer. I don't have much work at my home so I can leisurely design something really good for your daughter's friend...

It's actually that I was watching your love for your daughter. I can see the happiness in your eyes when you talk about her."

Mr. Lopez smiled and said, "Yes, I love my daughter very much. She is my pride, my little princess. She is the perfect daughter anyone could ever get. I'm so blessed to have this little angel as my daughter who brightened our lives like some shining star."

Diana felt extremely emotional remembering her father who also loved her very much but was no more, so she said, "Your daughter is also very lucky to get you as her father. However, I need tge proportion to make a dress."

"Oh.. You don't have to worry about that. I'll call my princess to bring Lucinda here. Is after lunchtime okay for you?" Mr. Lopez asked.

"Perfectly okay, Sir. Then I'm going to take my leave as I have to hand my works to others for these four days." Diana said.

Mr. Lopez nodded and said, "Thanks Diana for your help. Oh, I called you by your name. Is it okay to call you Diana instead of Ms. Miller as you are my daughter's age?"

"Sure sir. I would be glad if you call me Diana as you are also same like my father." Diana said and left the office...

Creation..

"Hi Dad.. What are you doing?" Veronica asked as soon as she received her father's call.

Mr. Lopez smiled and said, "I'm just checking some files and thought to call you to give you a good news which would make you instantly happy."

Veronica squealed in joy and asked, "That's mean your designer had decided to make Lucy's dress?"

"Yes, my princess. Just bring Lucy with you after lunch here." Mr. Lopez said feeling elated that his daughter would be coming here today evening in his office after so long.

Veronica's face fell when she heard the expectant tone in her father's voice and said in a disappointed voice, "I'm sorry Dad. I won't be able to come today as I have an important meeting. But I promise to visit you tomorrow as I already cleared my schedule for the next day."

Though Mr. Lopez felt a little sad but then he smiled and said, "Its okay princess. I know that it must be important. But you have to surely come tomorrow."

"Promise Dad and I love you." Veronica said which made her father laugh loudly...

Sip and Drip…

Lucinda was busy looking after everything in her café as she also had some doc.u.ments to sign for passing some bills when her phone rang and it was her best friend Veronica.

"Hey Niccy.." She greeted excitedly.

"Hi Lucy. Guess what, you are going to wear a designer dress on your engagement day." Veronica informed her happily.

Lucinda became instantly happy and exclaimed in joy, "Oh my God! I'm so happy. So are you going to pick me up or I am going to your office?"

Veronica took a deep breath to handle the upcoming storm and muttered in a low voice, "Actually Lucy.. Some work had come in my way. So I won't be able to accompany you today but Louis and Willa will definitely go with you."

"What? Are you mad Niccy? How can you do this with me? You promised me to accompany me there.." Lucinda yelled at her.

"I know sweetheart. But it's something important otherwise I would not decline the offer to have a gossipy chat with you. But I promise I'll be there with you tomorrow. Please don't be angry on me anymore." Veronica pleaded in a childish voice.

Lucinda huffed but said, "Okay. I'll not be angry on you as work is also important. But tomorrow's plan is fixed okay? No cancellation.."

"Okay promise. And I'll ask Louis and Willa to pick you up from your café before going there." Veronica said.

"Cool then. I'll be ready." Lucinda said.

After hanging up the call, Lucinda immediately called Henry and informed him about her visiting Veronica's father's office.

Henry became happy with the news and both of them talked a little before again becoming busy with their own work...
