The Halloween event was a huge success, with everyone buzzing about the various themes and the trending videos that captured the funny moments people had experienced there.
What Deborah loved most was the following day when they delivered the leftover gifts and candy to the orphanage. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
It was a home that the Coopers had long cared for, and while the children there may not have lived in luxury, it was clear that they were in a warm and loving environment as they waited to be adopted. The home was supported by several foundations that provided medical, dental, and vision care for the children.
“You know, love, I’m going to create something special for them,” Deborah commented as they said goodbye to the kids.
“And I know you will. If you want, you can help us pick out their gifts because we do a Secret Santa with
them for Christmas.”
“Yes, I’d love to help.”
“Ah… bl…”
“Are you going to help us too, son?” Deborah asked, doting on James.
“In that case, we need to buy James his elf or Santa’s helper costume,” Jayden said, already imagining James in those outfits.
“Why not a mini Santa?”
“That too, haha.”
Just then, Deborah’s phone rang.
“It’s David. He’s asking if we can go see the floral arrangements and my bouquet in an hour.”
“Sure, have him send you the address.”
Deborah nodded and confirmed the appointment with David. After receiving the location, they headed to the flower shop.
When they arrived, they saw that David was already waiting for them.
“Good afternoon! How are you?” David greeted them as they got out of the car.
“Good afternoon,” they replied, closing the car doors.
“By the way, you guys looked great in your haunted family photos,” he said, showing one of the articles that featured them.
“Thanks, it was fun creating that scene,” Deborah said, adjusting James in her arms.
“By the way, Debbie, if you ever get tired of numbers, give me a call. I loved how you organized and decorated the space,” David added with a wink.
“Really?”
“See, love? And you were worried your ideas weren’t good enough,” Jayden teased, taking her hand.
It’s the magic in the details that made the decorations special, something some organizers forget over the years.”
“Thank you,” Deborah said, blushing slightly.
“Well, let’s go in; my friend is already waiting for us,” David said, opening the doors to the shop
With that, they entered the shop, which was filled with bouquets of various sizes, loose flowers, decorative paper, and sculptures of different sizes and shapes made from flowers and leaves.
“Ah!” James got excited when an employee passed by carrying one of the floral sculptures
“Yes, darling, it’s a teddy bear made of roses,” Deborah explained, seeing what had caught her son’s attention.
“Does he like roses?” the shop owner asked.
“It’s the color that caught his eye,” Jayden replied.
“I see. Well, first things first, what’s the theme for the wedding?”
“The wedding will have a nighttime crystal palace theme since we rented the old Bloom estate,” David informed her.
“In that case, let me show you the decorations I have with crystals and candles.”
“As for the candles, we want fantasy ones, not real ones,” Deborah added. “We don’t want any accidents with fire since it’ll be outdoors.”
“I understand. Don’t worry, we have both types of candles,” the shop owner assured them as she led them to a room where some centerpieces were already set up for them to choose from.
They looked at the decorations, but none caught their attention, so the shop owner offered to design one on the spot based on their preferences, sensing that they had a specific vision in mind.
“All that’s left are the cascading crystals,” the shop owner said, picking up the crystal chain they chose to complete the design.
“Ah…” James reached out his hands to grab the decoration.
“Look, son,” Deborah picked up one of the roses they were using in the arrangement and brought it closer to the baby.
James forgot about the crystals and focused on the flower instead.
Watching the faces he made while examining the fragrant white object was amusing to Jayden, who took out his phone to record the interaction until James grabbed the flower and ripped the petals off the stem.
