The gossamer silk fabric of the dress draped over
the high tip of the mannequin's breast in storm cloud blue, and
merged into lavender at the waist. The two colors joined hands to
dance and whirl in the folds of the skirt, so light it shimmered in
stillness. The colors reminded Meg of the touch of a sunrise on
ocean waves. The dress transformed the mannequin into a silver
skinned goddess, frozen in the peace of perfection.
"A long time ago, when we believed in fairy
tales," warm breath and a familiar, timbered voice filled her ear,
"A legion of fairy seamstresses wove this dress for their beloved
princess."
Meg turned her head, but the voice moved to her
left shoulder, evading her. "The dress was stolen by a jealous
mortal woman," it continued. "She couldn't wear it, of course,
because fairy clothing can only be worn by a fairy.
She tried to destroy it, but it was magic, and
couldn't be destroyed."
Meg tried turning her body. Hands, so strong her
muscles could not tense against their grip, came down on her
shoulders, made her face the dress. "The jealous woman finally put
the dress here," lips brushed her ear, "In the least magical place
she could imagine. The princess can only retrieve her dress by
becoming mortal. But if she does that, the crush of mortal pain will
destroy her fragile, fairy heart."
"There's not a lot of hope in your story," Meg
murmured.
"That depends on whether or not you believe magic
can happen in a mall." The hands released her and Meg turned to look
up into a stranger's eyes.
