I stare in the mirror while my brain goes numb as the memory fades away.

"You look perfect Delilah."

Riley whispered.

I turned around to face her and forced a small smile.

"Thanks."

Cara comes in.

"Come on darling we still have 20 minutes if you're ready you can come eat something."

I shook my head.

Cara is replacing Grace for as long as she's absent. She's a nice girl around my age and the daughter of one of the gardeners.

"No, no I'm fine."

"Okay then we'll leave you alone."

Riley said.

"Okay."

I hugged both of them - along with Serena who had just come out of the hair product section-,and they left.
