     I walked to the parking lot all alone trying to avoid my friends from taking me to the mall. I was about to open my car door when I heard Talia yelled my name. I turned around unwillingly with a fake smile plastered on my face.

     "Why are you avoiding me?" Talia asked me.

     Think Sophie. Think of an idea. "Errr, I was... I just wanted to get my stuff in the car. Yeah, I mean. Errr you know, stuff . My stuff" I said while pointing my finger to the car. Wow Sophie. Is that your best answer you can think. Way to fooled yourself.

      "What stuff?" Talia inquire. Crossing her arms and putting them on her chest.

     "My purse." I said hesitated. I looked at Talia and she was about to raise her hand to hit looking creepy than before. I can feel my legs were shaking, without any further I genuflect infront of her.

     "Oh I'm so sorry Talia. I don't mean to lied to you. I was..... I just don't want to go to the mall." I said feeling guilty than ever. I close my eyes waiting Talia to speak but there was no reply at all. I open my eyes slowly and looked at Talia. She looked at me and gave me the 'what-are-doing' look.

     I was feeling embarrass infront of her because of my sudden out burst deeds. I was about to say something but Talia cut me off.

     "Well, you know Sophie. You are not good at lying to someone especially me." Talia giggling.

       "Yeah, I know. I thought you were going to hit me. That's why I'm telling you the truth." I said sarcastically.

     "Oh! Come on. Janet and Sindey are waiting for us at the mall." Talia said, holding my wrist and pulled me towards the car.

     Hours had passed, my arms were sore and the only things I had purchased so far was lingerie from Victoria's Secret which Talia said was essential for every parties. Did she have the misconception, that I was getting laid or something. None of the dresses we saw, seemed to please them or me at least. Maybe it was me, maybe I had a special talent of making every dress look unattractive.

      "Try this on." Janet said, handing me a stack of dresses. I sighed, stoping to the changing room. They were so lucky they bought their dresses already. According to them, they bought it during summer time.

     I tried on a light green dress, which was a bit tight at the butt. I mean I'm not that fat enough and the dress were to small for me to fit my body. The next one was a brown dress, which a little bit loose at my waist. It only make me look fat.

     "Guys. I think the problem is my waist." I yelled.

     " Come out let us see." Sindey said. I step out grundgingly.

     "Ugh!!!!" All of them said in the same time with a look of disgust.

     "Go change back. It's look awful." Talia enjoin me.

     "Fine." I muttred behind my breath. We took another minutes walking before I see the most beautiful dress.

     "Guys." I called them. They spun around to see me then to the dress that I was looking at.

     "I think this is the dress that we're looking for." I said feeling excited.

     We went to the store to get the dress. I went to the changing room. I looked at the mirror and saw the dark navy blue dress fit me well. It fall exactly on my thigh. I looked like a bit slutty because it's explosed my boobs and become a little bit bigger than it's usual size which surprise me the most.
