A Girl’s Diary

Chapter 27 - Time To Show Them

"Thank you so much for doing this!" The mall's manager said for the millionth time today. My only

condition for him was not mentioning what the big event was about. I knew for sure the queen-bees

wouldn't miss this for anything. This meant I was going to make Fabia regret ever pretending to be me.

She thought I was an easy target? Huh, watch me now!

I was sitting in the security room watching the security cameras and then I spotted them. I was over the

moon. This was going to work; I've never been so happy to see someone I hate that much!

I happily moved to my spot at the lowest level of the mall. The lights fainted and a single dazzling light

shot on Fabia. That was my plan! I fixed my mic while everyone was murmuring about her. She shot a

big smile not knowing what was coming next.

Another bright light lighted my spot and I was on cloud nine.

"Hey everybody. Surprise!" I said making jazz hands. "This event is especially for that special girl up

there." I waved at her. "Fabia, so nice to see you. Or should I say me huh?" I laughed a bit and she ran

away. You don't mess with me and get away with it. People were taking pictures with their phones and

videos. This was so going to go viral! "Now, who's ready for a song?!" I said energetically and the

crowd erupted.

This was pure bliss!

"First, remove the glasses and that's seventy percent of the work done!" Tommy said out of nowhere,

earning him a look that questioned his sanity from me. "I'm serious, it's written in every nerdy girl

makeover manual!" What the heck? We were walking to the hairstyler's. Because apparently, I needed

a new haircut. I was so sad to let go of my cute braids and my long long hair. If they cut my hair short,

Cinnamon would need a wig! We couldn't get our hair cut at the same time! "We'll tell everyone you put

on contacts."

"Oh, the irony, I always wear contacts!" I chuckled. "Now, the only difference will be telling people."

"And your eyes are gorgeous but I know why you hide them." He said. "You don't want to bewitch

guys." He shrugged making me double over in laughter. What? "I called Skyler by the way, we need a

girl's opinion. Not that my opinion isn't enough but she'd murder us both in our sleep if we don't include

her in the great makeover." He said.

Our school trip was going to be tomorrow. And for some reason, Tommy thought it would be a good

idea to do this now. When mom heard about this, she was practically jumping. She even gave me her

credit card!

"Can we keep my hair tall?" I asked both my friends as we looked through magazines trying to find the

perfect haircut. Oh, and did I forget to mention they wanted me to dye my hair. I was so against this, my

hair was a pretty jet black and I didn't want to look like a Barbie. But then I decided I wanted to try

putting some highlights there since I wasn't about to cut it into a bob or something.

I gave myself another look in the mirror. I looked good as much as I felt. My hair was layered with hints

of deep purple and silver. This would have looked so much better with my silvery eyes! It really felt

refreshing to change my look a little. Even if I missed my quirky glasses.

"Next stop, clothes." He smirked. I did not like that. At all! "Lots of it," Tommy announced.

Their idea of shopping wasn't what I had in mind. Who would even want to wear all these skimpy

clothes? However, I put some restrictions. But I also agreed to show some skin. And when I said some,

I did not mean a lot.

I got some skinny jeans, ripped jeans and a short just to make them shut up. It wasn't like I was going

to wear it anyway but whatever. My new wardrobe was cute and wouldn't make me uncomfortable. It

was getting me out of my comfort zone a bit but jot totally so it wasn't so bad!

However, after trying on so many clothes, I was hungry! And unfortunately, I couldn't eat junk food

because if I gained any weight Aurora would starve me and make me workout like hell. I wasn't about

to risk that so salad it is. Even if that wasn't even real food!

How do you know your friends hate you?

They see you eating salad, and they order all the junk food and desserts their stomachs could hold

while you're watching!

FML!

After spending all day hearing nagging and walking through many shops in too many malls, I was

exhausted. I didn't have the energy to pack my bag or even go home. We were near Sky's house so I

decided I'd just crash over.

We ordered the clothes I got to be sent home so Tommy was responsible for packing them which he

gladly agreed to do. Why did I have that feeling I'd regret this?

Right now I only had the outfit I was going to wear tomorrow.

"Skyleeer!" I screamed right into her ear. But you know what? She did not wake up. Didn't even flinch! ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

If she didn't wake up, we would miss our plane! "Okay, maybe I should just leave you behind." I

murmured heading to the bathroom to take a quick shower. I didn't know how it happened, but she shot

out of bed and into the bathroom before I could even blink!

That woke her up!

What?!

She kept running around her room for a whole thirty minutes until she was finally done. She then

helped me apply some light makeup. Being Cinnamon you'd think I knew about makeup. But I didn't

really! It was always my styler who applied it while I zoned out!

We took a taxi and told the driver to drive fast. We were already late but this time, it wasn't my fault. It

was Sky's. She took a lot of time trying to perfect her hair. Tom kept calling me over and over.

Someone was a little too excited!

I was wearing a crop top paired with ribbed skinny jeans much to my dismay but I needed to be totally

different even for today. I needed to make a statement! I also wore the anklet Tommy got me for good

luck and a pair of converse. Sky made me put on a chocker with three tiny silver stars which made me

look a bit badass with the black leather jacket I had.

When we arrived at the airport, the whole school was waiting for us. Perks of being late: you always

have an audience!

The moment I set eyes on everybody, I was so satisfied.

This was going to be worth it!
