Piper sat across from Sasha and their mother at the small dinette table and felt her apartment walls closing in.

Folding her hands on the table before her, she met her mother’s scrutinizing gaze. “You said you have something you need to tell me?”

“While your sister and I are here this weekend, we’re going to choose a dress style acceptable to your sister.” Jenn cast a pointed glance at her younger daughter.

“It will be my decision,” Sasha spoke firmly. “We will not debate my choice once it’s made.”

Jenn heaved out an exasperated breath, then gave a reluctant nod.

Having her sister finally commit to choosing was obviously more important to her mother than having veto power over Sasha’s choice. If only Piper could have been a fly on the wall during that discussion. Jenn definitely would have fought that concession with her last breath.

“I’ve some dresses in the salon I can show you, and we can also go through the types of styles that work best with your figure.” Piper kept her tone offhand. She would offer suggestions, but she would keep in mind that this was Sasha’s wedding.

“Since tomorrow is Black Friday, we can go down tonight and look through the stock I have on hand for ideas.”

Sasha smiled. “That sounds like a good idea.”

“It’s been a long day.” Her mother frowned. “I thought we’d take care of this tomorrow.”

“I can’t commit to anything on a day that’ll be as busy as Black Friday.”

“If you want to rest up, Mom,” Sasha waved a dismissive hand, “Piper and I can go downstairs. It’s been a while since we’ve had any sister time.”

Regardless of what concessions her mother might have made, the stubborn tilt to her jaw told Piper that Jennifer Ambrose had no intention of being left out of anything.

“There’s nothing that I like better than looking at dresses.” Jenn offered her youngest a smile. “You and Piper will have lots of chances to catch up this weekend.

“If you’re—” Sasha stopped when her phone rang. “That’s Heath.”

Sasha brought the phone to ear. “Hold on a sec.”

Wiggling her fingers, she strode back toward the bedrooms.

“Tell him hello,” Jenn called out.

If Sasha heard, she didn’t respond.

“Mom, there’s something we need to discuss.” Piper squared her shoulders.

“Yes, your hair will definitely need to be changed back.” Jenn heaved a sigh. “I don’t know what you—”

“Forget the hair. We need to talk about Sasha’s dress.”

Jenn lifted her hands. “Her decision.”

“I’m talking about me making her dress.”

“It’s a brilliant idea. I don’t know why we didn’t think of it earlier.” Jenn smiled. “You haven’t been around much for your sister, and this will be a nice way for you to show you care.”

“Sasha knows I care.” Piper’s gaze didn’t waver. “I don’t have the time nor the money to devote to making her wedding gown. Paying for my dress as well as the trip back to Georgia for the wedding will be expensive enough.”

No need to mention she’d rather have a root canal than see Heath marry her sister.
