Sophie was SO excited she danced up and down.
“Please, please tell me what else I’m going to wear, Victoria,” she begged.
“WOOF!” grumbled Mango, as Sophie’s legs got tangled up in his lead.
“Wait until we get to the common and let Mango go, then I’ll tell you,” laughed Victoria as Mango tugged impatiently at his lead.
They found a bench by the river, where they sat down. Victoria then took a sketchbook and pencil out of the rucksack she was carrying. As Mango scampered at the waters’ edge, yapping at the ducks, Victoria quickly sketched out Sophie’s bridesmaid dress.
“It’ll have a tight cream bodice trimmed with gold embroidery and a long billowing skirt of gold organza,” she explained.
“It looks beautiful!” gasped Sophie.
“You’ll wear your hair long and loose and have little satin slippers on your feet,” Victoria added, as she sketched in Sophie’s face and blonde hair.
“I’m going to look like an angel!” laughed Sophie.
Hearing Sophie’s excited voice, Mango came rushing up and started to nibble her shoelaces.
“I think he wants to play,” Sophie said.
Victoria laughed. “I don’t think Mango’s as impressed with the dress as you are!”
The following Saturday, Victoria arranged with Mrs Rose that she would take Sophie into town to buy material for her bridesmaid dress.
“What will Mango do when I’m not here?” Sophie fretted as she ate her breakfast.
“I’ll keep an eye on him,” said Mrs Rose. “After all, I do look after him every day when you’re at school,” she added with a smile.
