As we were at the bar sitting on lucious red stools with gold, Coraline was applying lipstick and adding more ice to her mocktail and whispering to Penny.
" Uh, Sabrina can you go and talk to Audrey please?"
Asked Coraline
" Me?"
I asked
Here we go again, having to ask Audrey about her beliefs.

" Audrey, today is meant to be a special and memorable day for Coraline since it's her 14th birthday, and why did your mum have to come with you?"
I asked
" Well Sabrina, My mum has to come with me to birthday parties or events because she wants to protect me and doesn't trust my friend's mums to look after me."
Explained Audrey.
" Um, I've got to go."
I said.
"After the show, we are going to a cafe, then we are going back to my house for cake."
Explained Coraline.
" What kind of cake is it?"
Asked Penny
" It's Choc and White Choc marble mud with ganache and chocolate."
Replied Coraline.

Then after intermission we made our way back into the theatre just in time for the rest of the show. Before Act 2 started.. Audrey and her mum were praying again.
" Uggh, Praying again."
Groaned Penny
" Um excuse me, Usher, can you get over here right now?!"
Snapped Coraline.
The same Usher from the foyer came up to us and she explained
" Look, this girl and her mother were praying before the show started and they are praying right now."

" Oh, That's absolutely normal Miss, Some people pray before a show because when they hear about the smoke haze and strobe lights. If you need me, I'll be here."
Replied the usher.

" Um, Excuse me..( clicks fingers) Excuse me!"
Snapped Coraline
" Yes, What is it?"
Asked Audrey's mum
" Why are you girls praying before a show? This is a theatre not a place of worship, you can pray at home or at a place of worship!"
Said Coraline.
" Coraline Jane! That is very disrespectful of other people's culture and beliefs, If you make another comment about Audrey and her mum, we will not be going to stage door after the show to meet the cast!"
Snapped Coraline's mum.

Then Act 2 started.. I couldn't believe that they were almost up to the whole new world scene it was just magical. When it came to the A Whole New World Scene, I couldn't believe my eyes to see a flying carpet fly in real life without people holding a carpet in the air or people pushing it. Just magical, yep I mean magical.

The rest of the show was just awesome and at curtain call when the actors took their bows was just the highlight of the day. It's just awesome and I couldn't get over how magical the scenes were from start to finish.

Then after we walked out of the theatre to buy merch and take pictures, Coraline went up to Audrey and asked her what pendant she was wearing. " Thank goodness she is not shaming her again." I thought. But Coraline was on her phone and posting a photo she took of Audrey and her mum praying on instagram. Luckily Audrey and her mum were busy looking at the merch and what to buy.

When Coraline sent the post on instagram.. She was caught by her mum.. Coraline was looking on her phone and then..
" Coraline Jane Anderson! Why would you post such a thing?!"
Snapped her mum
" I just wanted to let the girls know that Audrey and her mum pray at musicals and how Audrey has to bring her mum everywhere except school."
Explained Coraline.
" That is enough Coraline! We are not going to the stage door to meet the cast. We are going to the cafe and going home."
Snapped Coraline's mum.

After we walked out of the foyer, Audrey was with her mum and Mrs Liguo were taking about which restaurant or cafe to go to.
" It sucks that we didn't even get to go to the stage door."
Said Coraline
" I know, It would have gone ahead if you didn't shame Audrey and her mum again."
Replied Penny
" Yeah I know, you shouldn't have shamed Audrey."
I said.

" The cafe we are going to for lunch is called Sakura Japanese dessert bar cafe and photo studio."
Explained Coraline
" Oh I've been to that cafe before."
Said Penny
" It's awesome, the Yakisoba is the best and the cheesecake is just uuggh mazing!"
Replied Coraline.
" It sounds amazing, I haven't been there but I've only seen pictures."
I said.

" The Yakisoba, I just can't get over, We are definitely going to have to order that today and a photoshoot for four."
Said Coraline
" Awesome, Yea let's get Yakisoba and desserts, photoshoot and have fun."
Said Penny
" The cafe sounds great."
Replied Audrey.

" Mum, Can we please go to Sakura Cafe for Yakisoba, desserts and a photoshoot? Please Please Please it's my birthday!"
Asked Coraline
" Well Cora, Audrey's mum just recommended a place where I want to go. We're going to a Dumpling bar for lunch."
Replied Coraline's mum
" But mum! It's my birthday and you said I could choose where to go for lunch and I want to go to Sakura Cafe."
Nagged Coraline.
" Coraline, I know it's your birthday but the Sakura cafe gets pricey when it comes to the photoshoot with your friends. And your friends get to come over to your house for cake. But we'll save the Sakura Cafe for the holidays."
Coraline's mum replied.
" Uh fine."
Groaned Coraline

The Dumpling bar we went to is called Xiao Long Dragon. It's famous for it's Xiao long bao soup dumplings. " It's awesome and beautiful.. Look at the water fountain."
I said
" Wow, it's cute and kawaii."
Agreed Audrey
" Kawaii Desu yo."
Squealed Penny
" Yeah, whatever."
Said Coraline.

When we got to our table, we were talking about how fun the musical was. " When we get back to my house, we will do chocolate facials, pain nails have a dance party, have cake and post photos on instagram."
Said Coraline as her Reddish blonde hair swished around.
