Quite the evening (Almondfort)

Chapter two: Preparations

Almond woke up to the sound of her daughter, he curiously walked into the kitchen, seeing her daughter attempting to cook breakfast. "Good morning dad! I tried to make you some food since it's the weekend!" Walnut said as she handed her father a plate with eggs and toast on it and a cup of coffee and smiled.
"Oh, thank you Walnut!" Almond slightly grinned and sat down, he took a bite and the food his daughter had made was surprisingly tasty. "Thank you for the breakfast Walnut!" Almond said, smiling at Walnut before walking into his room to get ready for the day.
He had showered and changed into different clothes, then remembered the envelope that Phantom Bleu had left behind for him. He opened the letter and read it curiously.

Hello, detective! I have left you this card to invite you to a masquerade hosted by Cheesecake cookie herself at her manor! If you can manage to figure out who I am, I'll let you arrest me! The party starts around 6:00! Don't forget! See you then, my favorite detective!
~Phantom Bleu ♡

Almond cookie was considering going to the masquerade, considering he had the weekends off. The only problem was he had nothing to wear. He walked to the door and told Walnut he'd be out for awhile before heading out.

He walked to Chocolate Bonbon cookie's boutique in a hurry and walked in.
"Hello detective Almond! Do you need an outfit made?" Chocolate Bonbon said with a warm smile.  "Oh uh, yes." Said Almond. "Alright then! So, what's the occasion?" She said, getting her materials. "I'm going to be attending Cheesecake cookies masquerade party."
"Nice to know! I hope you have fun there." Said Chocolate Bonbon as she began to measure Almond. "Do you have any specific requests?" She asked. "Not really, I just need something to wear." "Oh, okay! I'll try my best to finish quick."

Almond exited the shop waving goodbye. He walked home with a bag in his hand containing his outfit. He checked the time on his watch to see how long he had to be ready.
5:00 PM.
He assumed he'd have enough time to get ready by the time the party starts. He entered his home, going straight to his room to get ready. He kept his hair in the same style, too lazy to change it. He spent most of the time getting the outfit on and cleaning abit. He looked at his watch again to see how much he had left.
5:30 PM.
He decided to make his way, just to make sure he wasn't late. He left a couple dollars on the kitchen table before saying "Walnut, I'm going to be gone for most of the night, you can order a pizza with the money I left, call me if anything happens." Almond said to his daughter before going on his way.
