Helping Neverland

Capitalism Won

Tira's POV

"OMG OMG OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING!" I squealed, jumping up and down. Phil was getting new clothes! Why wouldn't I be excited???? After the downer mood I have to have SOMETHING nice happen, right?

...

I shouldn't be thinking about that.

"Phil would look sooooooooo cute in... in......" I paused, tapping my chin. I didn't know much about clothes. Let's be honest, the only thing anyone ever wore was the bland white cattle uniform. But then again...

"Phil is going to look great in anything and everything!"

"Phil, do you have a kind of style you want to try out?" Gilda asked. He shook his head as we all drove off. Gilda smiled widely, pulling out her phone and showing Phil a catalogue of clothes.

"Aren't they so pretty? I can't believe we finally get to go clothes shopping in person!"

"Oh yeah, wasn't that your dream?" Don asked. Gilda nodded, turning her phone back to her.

"I loved all the clothes we got to see on the covers of books. They were so different from what we could get. And besides, who wouldn't want to dress up in outfits you couldn't afford or have?"

"Gilda...?"

"Yes... this world revolves around money and I'm here to make it!" She shouted, fist pumping into the air with fire in her eyes. I slowly backed away, horrified at what was happening. Gilda? A capitalist?

...

Okay yeah, I can see it.

She swarmed everyone in the car with her knowledge about brand names, which was honestly super confuzzling how she even knew so much about it even though I've never seen her look it up.

Aaaaaaaanywayssssssss.....

We stopped in front of a GIGANTIC building with hella people walking around. Everyone was staring at the place with big and sparkling eyes.

"Are these all shops?" Gilda asked in awe. Emma nodded with impressed eyes.

"I think- hey! Gilda!"

Gilda was GONE.

Girly pop disappeared just like that! Everyone started panicking because there was no way they were going to be able to find Gilda again if they lost her now in this giant ass mall. And with all these shops too? No way times 10.

"Over there!" Don pointed at this store with big red letters reading H&M. We all charged in, Phil doing the best job since he could bob and weave himself through the racks of clothing. Gilda seemed like she was possessed, ignoring everyone calling her name as her arms got filled with more and more and more clothes. Shirts, dresses, pants, skirts, shoes, literally anything that caught her eye it was in her arms the next second.

If this is what shopping with Gilda is gonna be like, I would rather be with Ray surrounded by gasoline. His arsonistic tendencies would be better than this.

"This is so cute!" She squealed, grabbing another shirt even though I could barely see her face from all the clothes in her arms. Everyone in the store was staring at her like she was bat shit insane. The people not staring at her was staring at the rest of us - minus me of course - like we were her underlings coming to help the rich kid shop and be the people carrying her bags and stuff.

"Gilda, please! At least have a buddy!" Emma shouted to her.

"Oh~~~~~ This dress is so sexy!" Gilda grabbed it and Emma was finally able to catch up thanks to her insane athletic ability.

"Oh, Emma! I thought I made sure to lose you all!"

"What-"

"Anyways, come on!" Gilda dragged Emma off and I sped after them, blasting through racks and people. Did Gilda say that losing them was her goal??? I followed them into the dressing room and Emma was tossed into the corner with a horrified look on her face as Gilda laughed.

"Time for dress up~"
