The sight before her left her shocked and if she hadn't held on the armchair beside her, she would have hit the ground.
"Everything in there is yours" Killian said to her and tears filled her eyes.
The little room she thought would probably be an unused place is now set up beautifully.
And the most surprising part is it was set up to be..to be a fashion designing workshop!
She could sight working tools at every corner of the room.
Tape measure, threads,needles, a sketch pad,scissors! A card scissors, lightweight scissors and shear scissors which has always been her father's favorite, even though she prefers lightweight scissors.
There is a weaving machine, embroidery machine, dress maker dummy and tailors chalk, pear Head pins and a complete set of sewing machine!
The wall paper displayed fashionable items.
Looking at it alone is a great motivation.
Damn!
There's a computer too!
She stood on that root for so long, dumfounded.
And when she finally got herself,she found herself screaming and jumping into Killian's arm.
She felt speechless for so many seconds and she just stayed in his arms not believing her eyes.
"Thank you so much but..." Disha paused to breath " i can't accept this" she added, pulling away from him slowly.
"W..why?" Killian asked.
"T this is just too much, it's not..like i've done so much to deserve this." Disha said.
"I understand you" Killian smiled " but do you have to do anything for me before i can help you?"
"No..but...!" Disha sighed.
"I don't expect anyone to do anything for me before helping them. I do it cause i want to, i did what i did for you willingly, i wouldn't let you give your contact to those ladies without having a plan. My plan started right from that party. So please,you need to accept it except you want my efforts to go to waste" Killian faked a frown.
"Thank you so much Killian, you've done so much for me. You pay me a lot and now this. I really appreciate your efforts and i promise to pay you back in every little way i can. Thanks so much" Disha wiped her tears..
"Aww. Stop" Killian drew her close.
Her head was on his chest as she cried, mumbling thank you..
***
"So where do we start from?" Disha smiled, checking out her workshop after some minutes.
Killian had left her to do the tour.
She's so grateful.
Every thing she needs is here! Even more things she knows she can't even buy herself.
She had planned to buy just few necessary things but Killian bought so much.
She's so happy and feels indebted to him .
She chuckled, imagining how shocked her mum and Lucien would be when she tells them .
She would have called Lucien immediately but he'll be in school.
Sophia had said she would check on her later on.
She had told her she knew about the whole thing, she helped Killian in the plan.
And Disha now knew why she had caught Sophia smiling.
These people are full of surprises.
Okay, first thing is accepting the orders.
She pulled the comfy chair closer to the table, grabbed a pen and a notepad.
She unlocked her phone and started accepting the orders with smiles on her face.
"How's Disha?" Summer asked hoping into Killian's car excitedly.
Killian hopped in after her.
He had come to pick her up like he promised.
"Disha's at home" Killian said, pecking her forehead.
He helped her pull off her backpack and then ordered the driver to start driving.
"Why didn't she come with you?" Summer asked .
"Well..she's busy" Killian said.
"Ohh...with Sophia?" Summer asked.
"No, I'm sorry i didn't tell you this earlier, i wanted it to be a surprise though"
"Really?" Summer smiled.
"Yes princess"
"What is it?" She asked curiously.
"You know the little building in the garden that was once used to store flowers?" Killian asked .
"Yes daddy"
" I furnished it into a fashion designing workshop for Disha" Killian said.
"Wow!!!" Summer screamed in excitement.
Disha had told her how worried she was after giving out her contact to those ladies with no hope but now her dad just gave her hope!
"Thank you daddy" Summer smiled happily.
Killian grinned, wondering the type of love that exists between Disha and his daughter.
"She was so happy right?" Summer asked.
"Yes she was" Killian said.
"She's working already" Killian added.
"Really?" Summer smiled widely.
"Yeah"
"I can't wait to get home" She grinned happily.
Disha had went to get the cloth material after accepting the orders.
She jotted down their measurements and started cutting and sewing.
She so much love the sewing machine.
It gave her the perfect stitching.
She sew five dresses already and it just needs to be packaged and delivered.
Yes, she's that fast at sewing.
Though she still have so much more to go but she's up for it.
She smiled while at it.
Sewing again after so long brought so much joy to her.
Sophia had brought her coffee while she came to check on her and she had left to prepare lunch.
Disha had offered to help her but she declined, insisting Disha should continue with her work and Disha who has so much to do didn't refused.
This is just like a dream.
Who would have thought she'll be...sewing in her own workshop today!
It's just so unbelievable, she would have argued vehemently if someone had told her that.
She really need to thank Killian over and over again.
He made her life change for better just in few minutes.
Her clients are starting to transfer their bills to her and she knows that's gonna go a long way in her mother's surgery and her brother fees.
She's just so happy right now.
"Disha!!" Summer called happily rushing into Disha's little workshops.
"Summer" Disha beamed happily, stopping what she was doing to hug the little girl.
She feels more happy to see Summer.
Summer and Disha stepped into the dining room after Disha had dressed her up for the afternoon.
Killian loved the way Disha didn't neglect Summer, despite how busy she is.
He had told her to continue with her work that he's just gonna take care of Summer but she had refused and rushed to take care of Summer before he could persist.
"Looking good" Killian smiled at his daughter who smiled back.
"Where's Sophia?" Summer asked.
"She went to get the meal" Killian said and Summer nodded.
"So, how's work going?" Killian asked Disha,who had wanted to go help Sophia.
"Great, thanks" she smiled, sitting back.
"Thank you so much Killian" Disha added.
"Stop it. You've thanked me more than i can count already" Killian said.
"Killian, Allysia is coming home" Sophia said excitedly, walking out of the kitchen.
"With your parents" She added.
"Yaaaaay" Summer squealed happily while Killian smiled.
"When will they be coming?" He asked.
"Next weekend" Sophia said, dropping the tray on the dining table.
"Okay then, we would be gladly expecting them" Killian said.
"I can't wait to see them" Summer grinned.
Disha smiled, not saying a word..
She can't actually wait to see Sophia's daughter and Killian's parents too.
"Let's eat" Killian said.
**
Disha made Summer have her nap after eating lunch.
She returned happily to her workshop to continue her work..
She should call Lucien that she won't be coming home for the weekend.
There's so much to do here.
She sat on the chair and grabbed her phone.
*
"Why won't you be coming home for the weekend!" Lucien frowned over the phone.
"Chill Lucien, i have a lot to do.
"A lot? Is the nanny work that stressful?
"Not the nanny work" Disha smiled. "My own work" she added.
"Your own?
"Yes Lucien, I'm going to send you a picture now and make sure you show it to mum too" Disha said before disconnecting the call.
She started taking pictures of her workshop.
*
"Oh..my! Mr Killian did all that for you?" Lucien nearly screamed over the phone.
"That's unbelievable..." Disha heard her mum said in the background.
"Yes he did.
"D..does he want something in return?" Lucien asked curiously.
"No, he doesn't" Disha said,moved to tears again. "He's just so nice" she added.
"Can we come over to thank him?" Disha's step mum asked.
"No Mum, do not bother. I'll just send your greetings to him.
"I'm so so grateful to him. I wish i can just see him and thank him profusely" Lucien said.
"This is so so surprising" Mrs Smith said.
"Yeah" Lucien conceded.
"We should leave you to work now"
"Okay, bye.
**
"The scissors is gonna hurt you Summer" Disha warned for the third time.
They had both returned to her workshop after Summer woke up from her nap and she read to her in the library.
"What do you use this for Disha?" Summer asked and Disha sighed.
She just can't count the amount of questions Summer has asked during her stay here.
"Well that's tape measure, it's used to get people's measurements before sewing" Disha said.
"Ohh...so you went to their houses one after the other to take their measurements?" Summer asked.
"No, they sent their measurements to me" Disha said.
"Ohh..." Summer said.
"What should i help you with" She added.
"Absolutely nothing dear" Disha said.
"Are you sure?" Summer asked.
"Yes, you can just watch me" Disha smiled.
"Okay"
Days flew past and Disha was done with the orders.
She got more orders but she's yet to accept them.
She needed to finish the first set and now she's done.
When she's back from delivering this last one, she might start accepting the new orders.
She's so happy Shiny fashions is getting known little by little.
She already opened a page for people to contact her.
She do post samples of her wears and she always got great reviews and recommendation.
Not only that, her bank account is getting fat.
She's just so grateful to God and Killian.
She has been working with him for few weeks now and she can't deny her feelings for him any longer.
She has feelings for Killian and she's afraid to admit it.
She hadn't planned this from the start,she didn't even see it coming,it just came and she can't stop it.
The feeling's good.
It had been so long she felt her heart race, so long she felt this good.
She always look forward to every night with him in the library.
Yeah..they still spent nights in the library and they've gotten so close than she would have ever imagined.
She now feels so comfortable around him,she feels so free to call him Killian.
Other workers do raise eyebrows when she does that but she doesn't care anymore.
She sighed before picking up the last wear she's to deliver.
It's well packed already.
She walked out of her workshop and closed the door behind her.
*
"I'll be right back Sophia" she called out as she walked past the kitchen.
"Going to deliver?" Sophia asked.
"Yeah, the last piece" Disha said.
"Ohh.. okay"
"Let's go to your workshop" Summer said to Disha after they were done with lunch.
"No, you'll need to take your nap. Besides I'm done with the orders and I'm gonna rest for few days before accepting the pending ones"
"Uh..huh" Summer pressed her lips together.
"I'll have my nap then" she said and Disha led her to her room.
She tucked her in bed and pecked her forehead before moving into her own room.
It's been long she had a nap and she decided to do so now.
She sighed softly as she fell on her bed.
She can't wait to go home for the weekend.
She misses Lucien and her Mum.
Her mum's surgery bill is almost ready.
She can't wait to see her back on her two feets and her heart working perfectly again.
The huge pay she received from Killian and the money she received from the orders helped in almost completing the surgery bill.
Few months ago,she never believed she'll get more than half of her mum's surgery bills this soon .
Things are just so unpredictable.
She's so glad to have met Killian.
He's slowly making her dreams come true.
The dream she never thought would even be fulfilled.
They laughed over dinner as Sophia cracked jokes.
"Dad...table manners" Summer reminded even though she had laughed too.
"Ohh...i got carried away i guess" Killian smiled.
Disha gulped water, still feeling the urge to laugh again.
"Such jokes shouldn't be cracked over meals, it almost choked me" Killian laughed and Disha followed.
Summer also giggled while Sophia smiled.
They continued with their meal in silence and they were almost done when a bodyguard came to whisper into Zack's ear.
He nodded and walked up to Killian.
"I apologize for interrupting your dinner Mr Killian but i was told now that a guy named Lucien is here seeking to see Disha,his sister" Zack said.
"What!" Disha exclaimed rising to her feet.
"I'm so sorry Killian, Lucien must be out of his mind to visit me here, I'm so sorry, I'll go chastise him immediately" She said about to make a move when Killian stopped her.
"He could be here to tell you something important" He said.
"That's why i have my phon.." Disha was saying when she realized she left her phone upstairs.
But still ..
"Even if he came on a visit,I'll gladly welcome him. Bring him in Zack" Killian ordered.
"Huh?" Zack asked.
"You heard me" Killian said and Zack quickly carried out his order.
Disha sat down slowly, unsettled.
The dining room door opened and Lucien walked in.
Disha stood up quickly seeing the look on his face.
She knew something had gone wrong...
"What happened?" She asked in a shaky voice.
"It's Mum.." Lucien said, stopping to catch his breath.
"What happened to mum?" Disha almost screamed.
"She..'s..not.. moving anymore" He bursted out crying.
