Nidia did not know how many dreams she had the entire night.
In her dreams, she put on the outfit that Lily had picked out for her, but the staff at the City Hall stopped her. They told her she was too young to marry.
Livid, she began fighting with them, wanting to marry the handsome Jackson right away. Yet, her actions only brought about the others' mockery and jeers that she was an ugly duckling who was trying to woo a swan.
In another dream, she dreamed that her outfit was ruined, and she could not wear it on the day of her marriage registration.
As regret overwhelmed her, she wailed.
It felt as if her life was no longer perfect.
She had more dreams throughout the night, but after waking up in the morning, Nidia could no longer recall half of them.
Rubbing her face and her eyes, Nidia came to realize that she really wanted to wear the outfit.
How could she not want to?
