It's my first day in Melbourne alone with my cousin Callista. She is 13 and I am 14 now. We book into our hotel room. Our manager knocks on the door "may I come in?" I reply "you may" he walks in with two dress. One was bright pink and the other was baby blue. He handed me the pink dress. I hold it up and look at it, I screw my nose up and look at him. "Do I look like I wear pink dresses?" He looks at me and starts to laugh "I'm only kidding, hun" I start to laugh with him. "So what am I really wearing tonight?" He pulls out another dress, this time it was a baby green. He tells me to try it on. He hands a purple dress to Callista. He walks out of the room and closes the door. I put the dress on, something is missing. I walk to my bag and pull out my black fingerless gloves, a black striped fishnet overlay, my baby green and black striped socks and my black converse shoes. I put them on and show Callista "does this look ok?" She smiles "you look like yourself" we both laugh. She puts on her dress and looks in the mirror "I look fat in this!" I look at her in disbelief "no you don't, why do you think that?" She looks down. I walk up to her and hug her "it's ok, you look great."
