Been nice all week Akemi finally got invited to her first actual party with the in crowd that took Tatiana in without question. She bought 4 different outfits and still didn't like the way any of them looked on her. She wished she was more thick like Tatiana. Maybe they would fit her better. She jumped in the shower and made sure to shave her legs and put some watermelon lotion on. She started doing her hair and make up when Jamin called to ask what time she wanted to get picked up. Akemi told her that she needed her to come now cause she was having outfit problems. Everything she put on was either too loose like she was drowning or too tight to the point she couldn't breathe . Jamin asked her what size she was. They both looked like they wore the same size. She told her a size 3 in clothes and a 5 in shoes. Jamin told her not to panic that she had a few ideas on what she could wear. She didn't need to wear anything fancy, it was just a normal party. Jamin grabbed a few tops from her closet and some shorts out of her dresser and hopped into her car and headed for Akemi's house. They only lived about 15 minutes away by car. Jamin pulled into the driveway and Akemi came out the front door. Wearing one of the outfits. Jamin got out of the car and was laughing so hard she was crying and almost peed her pants. They walked into the house down the hallway into Akemi's room. It was a mess. There were clothes everywhere, sandals all over the floor. Her make up spread out all over her bed. Jamin handed her the bag of clothes she went into the bathroom to try them on. She came out with the shorts and the first top was a definite no. She walked back into the bathroom to try on the next one that came out that fit her better, it's just the wrong color Jasmin agreed it looks great on her. She took the last top. It was a striped black and soft pink crew neck knitted sweater, with a black tank under it so she went back into the bathroom and tried it on this time when she came out, she came smiling from ear to ear. She looked over at Jasmin and without saying anything they both knotted their heads. It was the one She went to her closet and grabbed out her black lace layer ruffle skirt, and then dug out her black crisscross strap watch platform heel pumps. Jasmin started checking out makeup to see what color eyeshadows would work. She finally decided to go with silver and pastel pink shadow. Akemi quickly Curled her hair. While Jasmin got all the makeup ready. It was about an hour before they were to be over by Manuel's. Akemi was very nervous. She still had no idea what to expect. Jasmin finished up the look. They packed up everything and got into the car and headed, on the way to the party but Jasmin had stopped to pick up Orianna. They both gave Akemi the rundown of everyone and who was who and what and who was off-limits Benji was a hoe regardless, but that's besides the point he belonged to Tatiana and as far as Akemi knew Tatiana was with Manuel both Orianna and Jasmin started laughing. Are we talking about the same girl asked Orianna what do you mean asked Akemi, she wasn't sure if she understood what they meant or what they were trying to say to Tatiana and Manuel, girl that ship sailed a long time ago. Tatiana doesn't even like Manuel like that at all.
The girls pulled up at the spot. They parked the car. Akemi was starting to have second thoughts. Her heart was beating Really fast, her palms starting to sweat, Orianna grab the bottles of Hennessy. Yasmin walked around the car by Akemi. She grabbed her hand girl relax you're going to be fine. There were people everywhere as the music was blaring. They walked up the driveway, heading toward the back. Manuel spotted Akemi and walked up to her.
