Jojo assuredly confirmed "No worries Miss Mohana, I will ask Omar right away"

"Why him?!" Mohana blurted, her frantic eyes jumping to their connecting door to watch out for his emergence incase it would happen by the mere mention of his name

Looking back and forth between the door and her boss, Jojo offered "He's an award winning world famous fashion designer"

"That yeah but how can I.. uh have him make me.. that! that entire thing! It would take a lot of time and he would need to be doing other things" Mohana objected, even the reminder of his touch made the butterflies in her tummy flutter incessantly

Jojo gave her a thoughtful nod "Yes, ya! But Miss Mohana nothing can be more important in this entire world than my boss! You are our editor-in-chief of Sophista, imagine it's you that he will be dressing!"

Mohana threw a hand over her eyes at the mere imagination from those words. Wrapping an arm around her waist wishing for the twitching ruckus inside her to dissipate, she tried "Uh yah but perhaps we think of someone else, is there a chance anyone in Salm's team would know how to tie this?"

Jojo considerably offered "Very likely, Salm is our designer and the team is exceptional. But they left for a short hike this AM to the mountain range and likely won't be back until breakfast. In the meanwhile I can ask Omar for a recommendation from his team?"

"No. No. Not him. Can I not wear something else? Why do I have to wear such a complicated outfit anyways" Mohana requested, dismissing another shiver

"Because Miss Mohana this is made from one of the most unique and intricately woven fabrics from Sarrata. It would serve wonderfully for you to wear this for the deep dive with Tyr and Sonya. You'll look so sexy! It will enhance your skin color and go so well with your blonde hair, look at this on the mannequin" flipping her digital screen Jojo showed a display figure dressed in the impeccable outfit

Studying the lay out carefully Mohana concluded "Got it. Okay. Essentially it needs to get bunched at the waist and then I need to get that other end on my shoulder but how do we know how much to bunch?"

"Maybe it has markings?" saying Jojo expectantly looked at the fabric, when not finding any hints she thoughtfully looked up at her boss "Miss Mohana, how about Omar's personal assistant? Maybe Indigo knows how to tie a saree? It will be faster than waiting for our team to return"

"Maybe yeah, but how will we justify seeing someone else's staff without the knowledge of their uh entire team and uhm boss?" apprehensive at the idea Mohana arranged the saree anxiously

Uncovering the cropped top from it's protective packing, Jojo thoughtfully declared "Ya definitely. Omar would not be happy to miss out on the opportunity to dress you up himself, hmm so.."

Given his disregard of her at the balcony and eagerness to get his jacket back, Mohana knew the words were very much untrue, yet her face remained blushed at his mention

Jojo brightly smiled at the idea "..How about this? We don't have to see anyone! We can learn everything there is to it on the connect itself! I'll talk so it's not like Indigo is talking to you and then Omar won't feel left out, but we can sort out this whole thing"

"But it's Indigo? I can't have you go through that interaction after your taxing plane ride" Mohana said interpreting Jojo's dislike for Omar Shaan's assistant

"It's only for this, Miss Mohana and if our rooms are connected there's hardly much escape anyways" Jojo heaved a sigh

"Why are all these rooms connected?! Mine's connected too" Mohana helplessly pointed in the direction of the door at the far end of the bedroom
