He did not want to go to school today. Usually, he liked his job, but not today because he had a lesson at 7B form. He was a good teacher, and he liked children. And the discipline was always very good at his lessons. He never shouted at children, and spent much time to find interesting materials for them. The children were curious about new and not boring things, were listening to him with attention. But not 7B children. He could not find something to make them interested. Moreover, they never listened to him. Whatever methods he used, he could not make a silence at a class.
One day he found a pin on his chair ? he had a look just in time, or he would have to stand all the week after. Another time he entered the class-room and saw big letters on the black-board ? ?Cochon? and a picture of a pig who suspiciously reminded his face. ?Ok, - he thought. ? At least they have a talent in painting and not in math.?
But the previous lesson was the most terrible. He came into the class, began a lesson. It was a silence in the class, and he was surprised. But when he asked a question to a class, he got no answer. He asked one child to stand up, then another ? they all behave as if they did not hear him. He had to go to the director to ask for the help. The director was a good man, he made the children behave normally, but he warned him ? he is a teacher, and he has to solve the problem.
That is why he did not want to go to school today. Nobody knew what 7B would invent this time. But he had to go. He entered the class-room and saw 7B. They were running around the class-room, and chatting. He greeted them but got no answer. It was such a noise that he even could not hear his voice. ?Ok, - he thought sadly. ? Now the director will hear the noise and I shall have to look for another job.?
As if heard his thoughts, the door was opened. But instead of the director a young beautiful woman entered. She was slim, and her clothes suited her much ? a strict teachers suit but the first thought that came into his mind was ? I am sure she looks better without it, when slowly to put away her jacket, then skirt, then blouse, and then to kiss her neck, coming to her breast and?
The woman had to told him hello two times when he at last managed to reply. She told that she came to be on a stage at their school and the director said that he, the teacher, had to show her around. While they were speaking, something disturbed him, but he did not know what. Then he realized. It was a silence. Not a silence before a thunderstorm, but a normal school silence of a discipline. It was something strange. He spent so much time to make 7B behave, and she had only to enter the class-room and tell hello ? and 7B became a disciplined class, ready to study and learn something new.
?Yes, I have a talent?, - she laughed, putting her head more comfortable on his shoulder. It was morning, but more close to afternoon as they were making love all the night after their wedding and had to have a good rest after. ?But you also have a talent.? ? ?In what?,? ? he asked. ?Guess?, - she replied, turning his head closer to her for a kiss.

- Are you joking? - said Emilie. She was looking at her friend, Annette, with eyes full of surprise. ?No, I?m not joking?, - laughed Annette. ??I shall change my cousine and will be the consultant in the wedding salon till she comes back?.
- Do you know that I am going to visit you? ? said Emilie, making a funny cunning face.
- I?m sure, you will. You have such a face that I have no doubt you will want to try one? or not only one wedding and evening dress. Just to know your style. Just in case.
- Yep, you?re right. Any girl likes wedding?s stuff. What a pity I have no fianc??not even a boy friend.
- That?s temporary. In any case, you were right to leave that terrible Mich. He was making a big noise when eating; I?m not telling about his smoking ? you had to air your room for a day after his visit.
The girls laughed. Annette?s cousine had to go to see her aunt who was defending her PhD, it was in another town ? that is why she asked Annette to change heron a job for some day.
The little bell at the door rang and Emilie entered the salon. The mild light was making the room cozy. There was a big mirror on one wall and at that moment a girl who looked like a princess was deciding if that dress suited her. A bit more far there were some mannequins standing ? wearing examples of wedding dresses. Emilie came into that big room and saw another room, little, full of dresses, and Annette, who was looking for something among dresses. She noticed Emilie, smiled and said:
- Hi, Emilie, will you please wait till I finish with the customer?
Emilie sat on the chair in the hall. She had never been to the wedding salon before, only saw some dresses in the showing window-glass. Emilie was fascinated by the special, holiday atmosphere in the salon. So many dresses. She smiled. If Annette wanted to try half of them, she needed one day without working just trying one after another without any pause. The girl who was trying the dress before, came out from the room wearing simple clothes ? jeans and pull-over. She did not seem to be princess any more, just a normal girl through rather good-looking. She thanked Annette, took a card with a sample of a dress she liked and price, and went away. Now girls could talk a bit.
- I am so tired, - said Annette. ? so many people these days. Besides, first I did not know what kind of dresses we have ? there are many types of them ? and where to find them in a little room. But I like the job ? it is so optimistic ? holiday every day.
Emilie turned the pages in the catalogue. As any girl, she wanted to marry a loved and loving boy, have a wonderful wedding. She came up closer to mannequins to look at dresses and? saw it. The dress was just in front of her ? the dress she was painting in her dreams when she was imaging about her probable look at her probable wedding.
- Annette, - she told. ? I want try it, can I?
As there were no people in the salon, Annette definitely agreed. She put off the dress from the mannequin and brought it to the little room. One by one, she helped Emilie to put on one big skirt for the dress to have a certain form in the down part, then one more skirt, and one more. Then the dress itself. She tightened it on the Emilie?s back, made it suit her friend. Then she fixed the veil on Emilie?s head, and only after it she allowed her to go to the big room to see her in the mirror. Emilie looked there and did not recognize herself. The dress suited her perfectly, it was pure white and she had an impression that it was shining, and Emilie was shining together with it. The big down part resembled the 19th century?s ball-room dancing, the upper part was open and showed Emilie?s milky white shoulders.
Emilie was astonished and noticed nothing around her. Suddenly, she heard Annette?s voice.
- Yes, please, have a look in the catalogues, and then I shall help you to try a dress you like.
Emilie turned and saw a young man and woman. They were probably going to marry and came to buy a dress. Strange, but Emilie got jeleous. That girl, not really a pretty one, was a real bride ? but not she. Besides, the man was really handsome ? tall, brown hair, intelligent look ? just in Emilie?s style. But why she is thinking about him? She does not care whether he is going to marry or not. She will forget his face as soon as she left the salone, and?
But the couple, who came, did not want to sit in the hall and look the catalogue. They came closer and the girl said:
- That dress suits you really very well.
Emilie tried to smile. For sure, they did not know that she was not going to buy it.
- You look like a princess, ? said the man and looked into her eyes?
In some months Emilie married. Do you guess what dress she had? Patrick?s sister and her husband who got married a bit before were invited too.
