"Jisoo, what's wrong with how I look?!" Lisa was having difficulty comprehending what was going on. Ji soo tightly held onto the younger's wrist, to prevent her from going back to the apartment and daydream near the window.
Ji soo couldn't take it anymore, and she finally admitted something,
"You stunk Lisa. Now that you are finally washed up, and have bearable clothes, we still need to get you a new wardrobe."
Lisa wasn't bothered that she smelt like a rotten corps. Her thoughts were always in another reality and the fact that her daydreaming into a happy place was interrupted, pissed her off.
Lisa was quite confident that she didn't need a new wardrobe, new whatever Ji soo had planned.
All in all, Lisa wasn't going to enjoy today's trip to the mall.
With constant whining, Ji soo finally managed to push Lisa into her audi, slamming the door harder than usual. It was Ji soo's way of giving an indication that Lisa had no opportunity to leave at this point.
"We're going to the mall and that's final. What better do you have to do other than stare at space?" Ji soo finally snapped, trying to put some sense into lisa.
Her attempts were somewhat successful, since Lisa felt like she was slapped in the face. This was the first time Ji soo had said such words. This lead to her questioning whether if Ji soo had thought of her as some hopeless daydreamer and hobo this whole time?
Lisa's perspective on her life was restless, while Ji soo's perspective was that Lisa needed to seek help if not doing anything about it now.
Starting the engine, they finally drove out to the highway, which was a shortcut to go to one of the most expensive malls in Seoul.
"We could've gone to thrift shop near the apartment you know." Lisa pouted, while crossing her arms with annoyance. She never asked for this trip.
Ji soo was the one so desperate to change her.
"I don't care if I spend my entire paycheck on you. Don't you get it lisa? Have you looked at yourself in the mirror lately? Like no offense, but..."
"I look like a hobo. I get it. But honestly...I don't." This made Ji soo almost press on the breaks, shocked to hear the words Lisa had just said.
There was just on point in conversing with the younger who was clearly in denial of her life falling apart.
"Just shut up and let me deal with all of this okay?"
"Whatever you say." Ji soo quietly let out the breath she was holding, half satisfied with the response Lisa said. At least she wasn't acting like a child, attempting to run out of the car.

15 minutes later had passed and they were finally at the place where Lisa would've never pictured to shop at.
It just wasn't worth it, for her.
"Okay...so....let's maybe dye your hair. What colour suits you..mhmmm." Ji soo took a good look at Lisa, who was just in awe of the mall. How glamorous can it get?!
This was the most luxurious shop she's ever been to her entire life. She never had step foot, thinking she wasn't worth even walking 100m near the property. And here she was, dragged by her friend, to do a complete makeover.
"I think I'm happy with my blonde hair, thank you very much."
"No, let's die it an orange-ish red. You need this bold look." Again, without giving a chance for lisa to voice her opinion on the situaiton, she was being half dragged to the hair salon.
***
"Hello welcome to-" the hair dresser stopped speaking mid sentence, glancing at Lisa's appearance. Her clothes weren't necessarily suitable for the environment. After all, all customers wore the most expensive brands while shopping.
Lisa was confused, with the sudden break when Ji soo smiled fakely. "Hi, I decided to bring my friend her. She needs some trims for her hair and dye her hair a reddish orange yeah?" The hair dresser just nodded like a robot, glancing at Lisa with low key disgust.
Imagine is Lisa hadn't showered. She probably would've been kicked out because of the horrific BO.
"Right this way." Lisa who wasn't interested, followed the person.
This whole idea was against her will, but it was too late now.
Ji soo decided to do some shopping for herself and Lisa to save up some time.
Ji soo was already thinking of all the scenarios that would potentially occur. One of them being, Lisa complaining about the selected outfits.
But honey, no one gets a chance to say no when around Ji soo.
Ji soo was the queen of fashion and she was determined to find the right style suitable for Lisa.
