Tamamo and I were shopping in one of the largest stores in New York. This was incredible, I was in one of the most reputable stores in the world, I was excited to take several photos to put them on social networks, the only thing I was missing were friends who saw them. In this place of a terrifying eleven giant floors, there was absolutely everything, furniture for the house, food, tools, technology, and of course clothes, a lot of clothes. Tamamo sometimes looks like she might have her head in the clouds but her fashion sense was to be feared. She could easily create amazing clothing sets with fairly simple clothes. I didn't think she knew about clothes as she always wears those traditional Japanese clothes, but I was amazed at what she is capable of doing with normal clothes. So much so that now I am depending on her to choose my clothes now.

"This jacket looks pretty big and pretty"
"Do you think my darling likes it?"

"Tama, that's pink"
"I'm sure my brother would like something more manly"

"I know, but it's a shame you know !?"
"He's a too pretty girl, I'm sure he would look like a doll in this!"
"I plan to make him wear this!"

"He already looks like a doll, that's why he looks for the other clothes"
"And I don't think it works if you buy it, the only thing he will do is keep it and forget it"

"Yes, you are right"
"I think it will make him happier if I buy him another cap to replace the one he lost yesterday"

I went back to look for some more beautiful clothes for me when I found a leather jacket for a girl

"Hey!"
"What do you think of this?"
"As soon as I saw this I immediately thought it would be perfect for Lisa since she basically uses strings instead of clothes."
"Don't you think it would look perfect on her?"

"Well actually yeah, it would look great on her"
"Maybe together with some long shorts and socks"
"I think even her blue color of hers will look good with that"

"Yes, that was just the same as I thought!"

We both laughed a bit. And strangely when we stopped I remembered how it was that she came to our family so unexpectedly and that it still seems that we had not thought much about it. Especially regarding Tamamo, because she still hadn't said anything about her feelings or anything.

"Tell me Tamamo, what do you think of all this?"
"What do you think about my brother and the other girls?"
"Why are you still with him?"
"You don't think he is a womanizer"
"At this rate, another girl arrives it will be a matter of time"
"Don't you think it would be better if you look for someone else?"

"You are evil sister in law"
"You shouldn't tell that to your brother's wife, it's horrible." She said looking for more clothes without even looking at me

"I did not say it with that intention!" I said regretting
"I just wanted to know what you thought about that because I like you and I want you to do well in life"

"Well regarding how I feel"
"I don't know what to say, the arrival of that crazy girl doesn't really comfort me"
"But in the past, I wasn't much different either, so I think she deserves a chance"
"In addition, Cesar seems to trust her a lot to try to save her despite what he has done"
"I imagine that he also has his reasons why he does it, so it is my duty to support him even if I do not entirely agree with having her around"

"And what about Momo?"
"What do you think of her?"

"A victim of circumstance but it is also her fault for being shy to act"
"If Cesar had never gotten lost in the woods right now she would have had it all to herself"
"And yet I'm sure she would never have told her feelings to him"
"She only did it because she saw me being with him, so she tried to talk to him because she no longer had anything to lose"
