Let the celebration begin!

The birds chirped as the sun slowly rise up signaling the start of the long awaited day. Today was the day of celebration! Megan woke up feeling excited for tonight's event. She went to sleep early last night so she could catch her beauty sleep. Since today was Saturday and the shop is closed, she has all the time in the world to prep herself for the day. The ball starts at 6 in the evening so Megan had plenty of time to get ready later.

She puts her hair into a bun and clipped it with her hair pin, then went downstairs for breakfast. "Good morninggg~~"

"Morning darling" said the Vinnesia couple.

"Morning Meg" Theodore said back.

The family made some simple breakfast and ate it with a cheerful mood. "Megan, is Marie coming with us? If she does then I'll have to do her hair and yours too."

"Yes mother, Marie is coming with us. She will come by in the afternoon and go with us on the carriage." Megan replied.

"Theodore did you rent the carriage yet?" His father asked.

"Yes I did, I rented a carriage last week. I'll go get the driver and the carriage in the afternoon" Theodore informed.

"That's good that you rented the carriage a week before. A lot of people are going, so I'm guessing by now every carriage is rented out going to the ball tonight" Mrs. Vinnesia said.

"Of course a lot of people are coming mother. Who would miss such an opportunity to step into the palace?" Megan said.

The Vinnesia family relaxed for the whole morning, hanging out with each other for some family time as they wait for the afternoon to approach.

At around two o'clock, Marie came to the front door of the bakery and knocked on it. Megan noticed it was Marie carrying a bag with her as she opened the door for her to come in.

"Marie! Come in, that's your gown in there?" Megan asked.

"Yes, it is. Good afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Vinnesia. Hello, Theodore. Thank you for letting me ride with you guys to the ball tonight" Marie bowed as she greeted the family.

"Oh no worries darling! You are a family friend, you're always welcomed with go with us!" Mrs. Vinnesia said. "Okay since Marie is here, let go upstairs to get ready!!"

The three ladies went upstairs and stayed in Megan's room. Megan took out the two boxes from her closet drawer and showed Marie and her mother her dress.

"Oh my goodness Megan! That's so pretty!" Marie said with a gasped.

"That definitely fits you perfectly dear! AHHHH!" Her mother squealed.

The ladies helped each other tightening their corsets and putting on the dresses. Marie wore a sage green dress with a split overskirt revealing her underskirt. The dress has frills on the chest area along with a cute bow. Marie wore golden heels and held a silver eye mask to complete her outfit.

Megan's mother wore a sky blue dress with frills. She didn't bother to wear those tiring heels, so instead she wore flats.

Megan wore her gorgeous pastel purple dress. The dress fitted her perfectly matching the shiny earrings and heels. After the girls got dressed up, Mrs. Vinnesia did her two darlings' hair. She combed Marie's dirty-blonde hair and curled it with some gel, letting the hair down. After that, she put light blush and lip gloss on Marie. Mrs. Vinnesia didn't need to go crazy with the makeup as Marie was already beautiful with her piercing mono lid eyes and soft milky skin.

After Mrs. Vinnesia finished with Marie, she turned to her daughter who asked, "Mother, can you make my hair style half-up and half-down? Then take the hair pin and clipped the hair in place."

After putting her hair in that hairstyle as suggested, her mother took some gel and curled the strands of hair in front of her face. Then Mrs. Vinnesia took some blush and lip gloss to put on Megan's face. The two best friends looked like goddesses with their beautiful facial features. "If the ball wasn't masquerade themed, suitors would come running after the two of you. My darlings look like angels!"

"Thank you mother!" Megan said. "Now it's your turn!"

The two best friends worked on Mrs. Vinnesia's hair then her makeup. By the time they had finished, it was 4:30 in the afternoon. The ladies came down, each person holding their own eye masks.

"You guys came down earlier than I expected!" Theodore said sitting next to his father. Theodore had combed his hair back stylishly using gel and was wearing a fitted suit and leather shoes. He was dashingly handsome. His father wore the same things as Theodore, and he doesn't look a day over 40.

"Alright Theodore, they finished so go get the carriage and the driver" said his father.

Theodore then left to get their rented carriage and a driver, while the family waits in the bakery. Around 5 o'clock, a medium sized carriage with two brown horses arrived in front of the "Vinnesia Bakes".

Theodore open the shop's door making the bells ring and said, "I got the carriage, let's go!"

The Vinnesia couple went inside first, then Theodore gave his sister and Marie a hand to get inside the carriage, and he came in last. With a snap of the reins, they were off to a magically night.
