ZARA
March 2023
‘How’s it going there, Inspector Gadget? Tracked him down yet?’ Millie
asked, as she floated in from the front shop, bringing three buckets of white
hydrangeas for the Miller nuptials centrepieces that night. It was a 6 p.m.
wedding at one of the swankiest hotels in the city, so they had to be perfect.
Glancing up from her laptop in the corner of their workroom, Zara took in
the oh-so-together vision of her younger sister. Even at 9 a.m. in her standard
workout wear (ironic, because she would have to be bribed with cash and
wine to go anywhere near a gym), Millie oozed elegance and gorgeousness,
all dark corkscrew curls, toned arse and Cheryl Tweedy dimples. Zara, on the
other hand, with her blonde hair pulled back in a messy bun held in place by
a pencil, her three-month roots, her denim dungarees and Doc Martens boots,
was more on the low-key side of the fashion scale. Or, as Millie frequently
categorised it, Joiner-Chic.
‘Still searching, but I think I’ve found a possibility.’ Zara pulled the
pencil out of her hair, and her waves creaked slowly down to her shoulders,
reluctantly fighting against the half a can of dry shampoo she’d fired into it
that morning. Usually, it was only Monday mornings that were 5 a.m. starts
at the flower market in Glasgow, stocking up for the week at Blooming
Sisters, their flower shop in the West End of the city. But a pre-dawn Friday
run had been necessary this morning to pick up some extra blooms for this
weekend’s events, so bouncy locks were bottom of the priority list.
Especially when she’d had to do the run solo because Millie hadn’t come
home from wherever she had spent last night.
One of the very best things about their shop was that they also owned the
two-bedroom flat above it. The flat had been a huge plus when they’d been
looking for premises. For a start, it meant they were handy for late nights and
early mornings at work, but also it meant they weren’t paying a separate
mortgage or rent for somewhere to live.
Working together and living together might be a problem for some
siblings, but the reality was that out of work hours their paths rarely crossed.
Zara’s boyfriend, Kev, would come over, and the two of them would chill in
front of the TV. Millie, at the other end of the genetic pool party, was a serial
socialiser. If there was a shindig anywhere in this city, then her sister would
find herself there, yet, infuriatingly, she still rolled home at the crack of
dawn, had a quick shower, some coffee, then trotted downstairs looking like
she was just home from a rejuvenating week on a beach. If Zara didn’t love
her sibling so much, her self-esteem would have forced her to disown her
years ago.
‘Ooooh, let me see.’ Millie gently placed the blooms down on the
massive steel table that sat in the middle of their back shop, next to the boxes
of lilies that Zara had already deposited there two hours before when she’d
returned from the market.
