Allison arrived in class late, looking a little bothered, and Victoria noticed that Allison's purple headband and lime green platform heels clashed. Victoria realized this was very unusual, as Allison usually checked her outfit and rated herself before she came to school. Mr. Neff barely paid attention to her as she walked in, and Allison just quietly sat down in the seat that Victoria had saved for her.
"Why did you come in so late?" Victoria asked quietly as Mr. Neff read the morning announcements.
"Late morning," Allison replied, not looking at Victoria in the eye.
"I can tell..." Victoria said.
"What's that supposed to mean..." Allison asked, narrowing her eyes.
"Your headband and shoes clash with capital C. Did you wake up colorblind this morning or something?"
"Ehmagawd, you're a lifesaver, Vic!" Allison whispered, quickly taking her headband off and smoothing her hair back in place.
Victoria gave a quick smile as they both opened their notebooks to give their full attentions to Mr. Neff. Not.
