Chapter 3

I stared at the bucket of paint on the ground and held back my tears.

Picking up the bucket, I found very little paint left in it.

I sighed, then carried the bucket to refill it with paint.

No matter what, I still wanted to paint the fence. It was Melissa’s favorite color, after all.

After painting the fence white, I took off my sun hat and wiped the sweat on my forehead. I felt a little better now that I had finished painting the fence.

I think Melissa was going to love the new fence color.

“Andrea!”

I turned towards the voice and found that Melissa had pulled back the window and waved at me from the second floor.

I placed down the paint bucket and was about to head upstairs when I realized that the paint on me would probably leave stains in Melissa’s room. So, I went to change first before knocking on Melissa’s room door.

Melissa opened the door, then pulled on my arm and complained, “You were so slow!”

I gestured, “I went to change clothes since I had paint on me.”

Melissa blinked her big eyes. “Okay, I got it. I have a surprise for you.”

Melissa pulled me over to her European-style princess bed and said, “Look. Do you like it?”

My eyes widened. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.

A long, gray-bluish evening gown was in front of me. It had a veil-like texture, and sparkling crystals were embedded in it. There were also tassels on the sleeves as decoration.

I remembered this dress. Ellen had given this dress to Melissa for her birthday last year. Melissa had many pretty dresses, and she hadn’t worn this one yet.
