"Nothing just your pretty face." 

I watched as Niki's face went bright red as she looked away from me. I saw her smile from the side of her face. After a few seconds, she finally looked at me and answered.
"Thanks Y/n." Her eyes were filled with appreciation.

After we finished eating we washed up the dishes together.
" Hey Y/n, I'm going to go outside to buy somethings are you coming?" I couldn't risk my dad seeing me.
"No thanks, Niki I'm going to wait a while." 
"Ok then." I watched as Niki swung her handbag around her neck as she opened the door and walked out. 

Now It was officially time to have a make-over and re-make my life to be better. I opened my laptop that I usually use to watch movies with Niki and went to the search bar. 

 "Jobs near me"

I scrolled down until I saw a nearby job at the café. I clicked on the website. It had fair pay and was looking for someone to make some drinks. I clicked on the big red button. 

APPLY

After I clicked on the button, it took me to a page where it told me when I'm getting interviewed. "In a week's time huh, I'll be ready by then." I said to myself. I walked over to the kitchen and opened the drawer to find my wallet. I needed to see how much money I had. I grabbed my purse and walked out of the door. 

I walked down the pathway to town and looked at all the different shops and the left side of me. I stopped at the ATM and inserted my card into the slot. My balanced flashed on the screen. Damn quite some money got in and I'll make more from working at a café. Because I have more money than I thought I'll be spending more than I thought. 

This is going to be GREAT.

I walked along the pavement and stopped at the Hairdresser. As I opened the door the sound of a sweet bell ringed.  I walked over to the marble top desk and talked to the receptionist. 

"Hi, could I get my hair done today please,"
"Sure what treatment would you like?" I pulled my phone out of my pocket and showed to woman my reference photo.
"Ok, that will be £75 please." I took my wallet out of my pocket and hovered my card over the machine. 
"Thank you, now please make your way to the chair on the right." She pointed to the seat.
I made my way to the seat and sat down.

"Hello, how are you today." The lady smiled as she swung the cape on me.
"I'm good thank you and what about you?"
"I'm good thanks, so what hairstyle would you like?" I pulled out my phone once more and showed her the hairstyle.
"Wow, that's a nice hairstyle you've picked it will really suit you."
"Thank you so much." I smiled at her. She seems nice.

(AUTHOR'S NOTE: I won't show you the hairstyle since I don't want to pick a hairstyle that doesn't suit what you like. Just imagine what kind of hair you would like.)

1 HOUR LATER

I glanced at myself in the mirror the hairstylist gave me. I turned my head to see what the sides looked like. This was just what I wanted.

"Wow, you really did a good job with this thank you." The hairstylist smiled.
"Thank you, your words really mean a lot, I'm new to hairstyling and finished my course."
"Oh cool, I have one question to ask you though. Don't be offended if your not."
"Ok then...."
"Do you listen to girl in red?" The hairstylist chuckled.
"Yes I do how did you know." she was smiling ear to ear.
"It was just your vibe."

Me and the stylist talked to each other for a while and I ended up getting her number. I walked out of the store to get some makeup. I want to create a new style since my old style is kinda basic.

(AUTHORS NOTE: sorry if some of you guys don't wear makeup but if you do, I will show a picture of it in the next chapter, if you don't like it just imagine something to what you prefer)

I stepped inside the makeup store that had a flashing pink sign to advertise the store. I looked around me and all I could see was aisles and aisles of makeup. There were huge posters of models on the walls striking stylish poses. I looked around the store and picked the makeup I wanted. I headed to the self-checkout and scanned all of my items. I paid for them and put them in my bag and headed out of the store.

It had been 5 minutes since I had left the store and I saw a small bench to sit on. I walked over to it and put my bags down on it. I was about to sit down but then my phone started ringing.
"Hi Y/n, where are you? I'm at home right now and finished shopping."
"Niki I'm in town right now, when I get back home your going to get surprised."
"Oooo, I can't wait! see you when you get back."
"See ya!" The call ended. I put the phone back in my bag then looked into the distance. It was not long until I saw a figure walking towards me. 

"Hi, sorry could I just sit here next to you for a second?"
"Of course, sorry if I was blocking the area."
"No it's fine." I finally looked at the person's face and my eyes widened.

"MIA!?"

"Y/N!?"
