She Recalled.

In a very cozy modest space, Anita a light complexion petite lady who had blonde hair, and little freckles on the right side of her cheek, was seated on her stool in front of her sewing machine, the blue-colored tape measurement was curled around her neck like a fashionable necklace as she pedaled her machine gently, focused on the outfit she was sewing.

"Bambi, take this and iron this collar for me immediately, I would be attaching it to the shirt soon," Anita said as stretched her hands toward Bambi.

The fashion Boss Anita loved looking intently at designs, she sketched her designs and she has the habit of zooming pictures sent to her by her customers on Instagram to get each detail of an outfit since realized it was a way of standing out from other designers in her neighborhood.

If there's anything Bambi her apprentice loved about her boss, was how she was good at analyzing styles and how she ensured a neat finish on any garment sewn by her boss.

Anita has the mannerism of biting her fingers and focusing her gaze on the ceiling when she wants to be inspired, severally Bambi her apprentice had walked in seeing her in such a position, and whenever she tried to interrupt her it ended badly for her, then she realized It is a way of her boss drawing inspiration for the next outfit.

This time after Bambi finished ironing the collar given to her by Anita, she saw her boss in that position and so she paused for a while, hoping Anita gets out of the position soon.

In a bid to regain mindfulness, Anita stamped her foot on the floor, "Ehn Bambi, can I have the collar now? She politely demanded from Bambi.

With a concerned look, Bambi faced her boss and asked" Boss, when are we making Mrs. Jack's outfit? She would be checking in soon."

Anita's face which had a radiant smile immediately changed, her brow was brought together, her forehead wrinkled and a pouty face perhaps a scowl was displayed all over her face," That woman has a problem, I don't enjoy making clothes for her, she finds fault with everything, but then customers are always right,when I am done making this outfit I will start hers."

A few minutes later, Anita had now finished making the beautiful collar shirt and was now ready to hop on Mrs.Jack's outfit, she had placed the red colored cashmere fabric on her work table, which her scissors, tailor's chalk, a French curve, and body measurement books were, she had folded the fabrics into four which was to be cut in a kaftan form, marked out all the necessary curves and measurement and ready to be traced by her sharp scissors when her phone buzzed right in the pocket of her peach-colored palazzo pants, she struggled to reach for the phone as the pockets of her pants were quite deep, and when she did, she whispered: "Wo, ho! Talk of the devil". Bambi immediately wore a mischievous smile as she understood it was Mrs.Jacks calling her boss.

" Hello Anita, I want to change my style, can you make me a corset dinner dress? I don't want a Kaftan again, and I will be needing it by Saturday next weekend." Mrs. Jacks demanded without asking if it was feasible before she ended the call.

Immediately, Anita looked in bewilderment, fell on her seat, and placed her left hand on her chin, "What kind of problem is this?"

Bambi who tried to fix the puzzle but couldn't, finally asked "What did she say this time?"

Anita who was lost in thought, didn't reply to Bambi as she recalled how her boss dealt with customers like Mrs.Jack while she too was still an apprentice, this particular phrase rang in her head "To be a successful designer, you must learn to tolerate people and stay calm when they try to get on your nerves, customers are always right." She blinked continuously to hold the tears from her eyes because she felt frustrated already.

"I feel like calling her back and yelling at her but as my boss taught me, customers are always right, please refold this fabric for me, Mrs.Jack has changed her mind."She finally replied to Bambi.

Bambi felt sorry for her boss and became another source of strength to her, she tapped her, " No job is easy without tolerance, boss, we can conquer this, can I slam in your favorite music, so you feel a lot better while we work together?"

"Yes please, and some cold stone ice cream to calm my nerves" Anita giggled.

"Hehe, perfect!" Bambi replied with all smiles.

The Duo created happiness despite the challenge they encountered and made the corset outfit a reality.
