'Look at this Krystel!' Aurora squealed holding out a velvet zebra leotard with a daring low-cut at the neck. There was fur at the ends of the sleeves and the legs. She kept showing me those eccentric clothes. They all seemed weirder than one and another, if that is even possible.

We currently are in the local thrift shop. I know that we find peculiar stuff in thrift shops. But, this one is... special. Yep, that's a word to describe it. Every piece of clothing is just bizarre. I felt like I was in a Halloween store to be honest.

But I actually liked it, it's amusing shopping with Aurora. She just had to try on every ugly clothes she laid eyes on.

Aurora was holding a huge pile of all the bizarre clothing she found. She seemed very pleased with her finds, ecstatic even. 'Try it!' She insisted, wiggling the leotard in front of my eyes.

'Um. It's not exactly my type of clothing.' I said as I was going through hangers of only white shirts. Ethan was not going to buy me one any time soon. So I guess I should buy my own.

'Fine.' She said, shrugging. 'Then I will try it on!' She added it to the huge pile in her arms, almost dropping everything in the process. She then turned around to look at Jeremiah and spoke to him with a sweet smile. 'Jay, Honey, Honeybun, my dear brother. Can you please hold this for your so nice sister?'

Jeremiah groaned and rolled his eyes. 'Fine.' He muttered, holding his arms out to take the clothes.

'And pretty sister.' She added, seeing that Jay did not say anything about her previous comments. He simply looked at her with a glare saying: 'OK, shut up now.'

So, Jeremiah has been following us around in the shops for the last two hours. Let's just say he was not really pleased with his sister's shopping. I mean it is true that she takes a lot of time in each store, even though there is nothing really interesting to buy.

Aurora thanked him before gamboling to a pink cowgirl dress she spotted at the back of the store. Jeremiah and I just stayed there, waiting for Aurora to come back. She came back with a hat and the costume in her hands.

'There even is a hat! This is the best day ever!' She enthusiastically stated before laying the clothes in her brother's arms and placing the cowboy hat on his head. Jeremiah rolled his eyes at this.

'Stop abusing of my patience.' He said in a warning tone.

I laughed and shook my head. They are a very entertaining pair. Their arguments and their annoyance towards one another is absolutely priceless to me.

'I am not abusing your patience... I am only testing it.' Aurora replied with a grin.

'Well then. Stop testing it.' Jeremiah looked even more pissed. But honestly, I can't take him seriously with that pink cowboy hat on his head. I quietly laughed, putting my hand in front of my mouth to cover my smile.

'But what would be the fun in that?' She innocently said and her brother let out a huge sigh of frustration before coldly responding:

'Just shut up Aurora. I am already holding your clothes.'

She simply shrugged and continued looking around the store.

***

Overall, it was just a very good day. We shopped until we dropped... to Jeremiah's dismay. I bought two white t-shirts, a comfy sweater, brown suede boots, a big purse and two pairs of jeans. And Aurora bought the leotard and the cowboy hat. *Sigh* She said the cowboy hat was for Jeremiah. Let's just say he was not very pleased with his sister's idea.
