Chapter 28

I have been standing in the mirror for the past twenty minutes trying to decide if I had gone a little bit too extra with my clothes. Danielle said I needed to make a statement across and what better way can I do that other than to start with my dress. It was a simple off shoulder black gown but you could tell it was hella expensive and the red bottoms to match made me look even more high end. To make sure I appear even more mature and classy, I was letting my hair down and in waves.

“Green is going to be the main color of the lunch today” Lily sang from behind me and I chuckled in amusement at the terms she was using.

“I don’t know about green but there won’t be any opportunity for me to be messed with”

“Damn right there won’t” Lily agreed. To others, doing this may make me look a little bit childish but that was the least of my concern.

I gave one final twirl to Lily who was clapping wildly and bouncing on my bed that would be crying for mercy if it could talk.
