Chapter Fifteen
Noon, Pancake, and Pinky are walking past the numerous hiso shops at Paragon.
Pancake: You sure you're fine, Noon?
Noon: Yea, I'm fine. Thank god you took us her, Pan. Otherwise I'd still be thinking about Vee-
Pinky: Don't talk about him, Noon. It'll just ruin your shopping mood.
Noon: *sighs* I just wished it never happened, that's all.
Pancake: I know how you feel...
Pinky: *raises an eyebrow* How'd you kow, Pan?
Pancake: Ky...it's nothing.
Pinky: If you say so.
Noon: *looks aroud* Let's go to 66Diamonds.
Pinky: Umm...let's not. It's a prom, Noon. Not a wedding.
Noon: *daydreams* Haha I can picture you and Win-
Pinky: *pinches Noon*
Noon: Ow! *pauses* Hey, I was just thinking-
Pinky: Shut up.
Pancake: *laughs*
Noon: *turns to Pancake* C'mon, if Ky won't go to 66Diamonds can you go with me?
Pancake: It's a diamond dress shop, Noon. We're trying to find prom dresses.
Noon: So? Besides, our school takes prom as a "show off" runway.
Pinky: Yea, you're right but still.
Noon: Ky, c'mon. You'd look like a model in 66Diamond's clothes...
Pinky: *raises an eyebrow* Do you want the guys to think that we're money spenders or something?
Pancake: I bet their suits are studded with diamonds...
Pinky: Oh please. *thinks* Ok, fine.
The girls walk into 66Diamonds.
----------------------------------------
Win, Tle, and Vier are shopping in Glam&Suits.
Vier: *turns to Tle* What do you think I should wear?
Tle: Donno...I can't even find something that I'm going to wear.
Win: *looks through suits*
He ends up with a dark green/white suite with a black tie.
Tle: Nice choice, Win.
Win: Thanks. But I wish Ky was here so she could say if it's ok or not.
Vier: Don't bother then. Ky hates dark green.
Win: *raises an eyebrow* How'd you know???
Vier: Uh...it's nothing. Just a guess.
Win: *calls Pinky*
Pinky: *answers phone* Hello?
Win: Ky, it's me Win.
Pinky: *blushes* Yes?
Win: ...what color is your dress?
Pinky: I can't tell you! It's a surprise, remember?
Win: Please? Please? Please?
Pinky: No! I'm not going to tell you!
Win: Ok, fine. Then tell me if you like dark blue or not.
Pinky: Dark green? Umm...no. Why don't you get something dark blue, huh?
Win: Ok, fine. *turns to salesperson* Can you find me a dark blue suit for prom?
Saleslady: Sure thing.
The lady walks to the back of the shop, into the storage room, and back out again with 3 or 4 dark blue suits.
Win: *into the phone* Ky, ok I've got my pick. Umm...are you guys nearly done?
Pancake: *into Pinky's phone* Don't forget to buy Ky a diamond ring!
Noon and Pancake laugh hysterically as Pinky tries to ignore them.
Pinky: *into the phone* Don't bother, Win. Anyways, I'll call you when we're done.
Tle: *looks for suits* Ugh, I don't like any of the suits.
Vier: C'mon, why don't you wear white? Noon LOVES white.
Tle: *raises an eyebrow* You think so?
Vier: I know so.
Tle looks for a white suit but he doesn't find any he likes so he walks to the saleslady.
Saleslady: Yes?
Tle: A plain white sult...for prom? Do you have any?
Salesday: Please wait.
The saleslady walks to the back of the store, into the storage (yet again) and comes out with several white suits.
Tle: *points to the plainest one* I'll take that one. How much?
Saleslady: If you buy 2 you get 25% off.
Tle: *turns to Win* Which one are you getting?
Win: I donno, I guess the end one. Why?
Tle: Buy 2 get 25% off.
Win: Ok, sure. *turns to saleslady* I'll take the dark blue/white one.
Saleslady: *nods* Both after discount will be 58,000 B.
Tle: *takes out his credit card* Here.
Win: Tle, it's ok I'll pay for ours.
Tle: No, it's ok. I mean, your girlfriend is my cousin afterall.
Win: *blushes* Girlfriend? Who said girlfriend? She's my date.
Vier: *sighs* Oh please. *looks through rack for a black suit*
Win: Whatcha finding?
Vier: A black suit to suit my mood...
Vier finds a black suit and pays for it.
----------------------------------------
Noon drags Pinky and Pancake all over 66Diamonds.
Pancake: *sighing* Umm...so whatcha getting Noon?
Noon: I don't know. How about the white one?
Pinky: *groans* Noon! It's not a wedding!
Noon: So? I like white. Imma take that white one that's studded with a 1 karat diamond.
Pancake: *looks around* Umm... *sees the black "sexy" dress*
Pinky: Don't tell me you're going to wear that dress...
Noon: Although I hate agreeing but I've gotta agree. Please don't tell us you're going to wear that...
Pancake: What? I like black. It's unique and superior. Anyways, it's not all black! There are like silver linings...and a 1/2 karat diamond too haha.
Pinky: *laughs* Ok, you two got dresses how about me?
Pancake: *looks around* "I like dark blue", eh?
Pinky: Uhh...
Noon: *picks out a dress for Pinky* How about this one? It's dark blue, spaghetti strapped, unique, and has a studded 1/2 karat diamond.
Pinky: *nods* Sure, I'll take it.
Saleslady: So you're going to take all 3 dresses?
Pancake: *nods* Yea.
Saleslady: The black one is 200,000 B. And the white one is 540,000 B. As for the dark blue one...it's 280,000 B.
Noon: Oh Dad's going to kill me but I don't care Mom also loves these things.
Pinky: You think? *takes out her credit card* ...the dark blue one.
Pancake: *takes out her credit card* ...the black backless one.
Noon: *reluctantly takes out her credit card* ...and the white one's mine.
After they are done, Noon calls Vier.
Vier: *answes phone* What is it? And are you girls done?
Noon: That's what I was going to tell you. We're done.
Vier: Good.
Noon: So are you guys done?
Vier: Yea, we're waiting for you at the parking lot.
Noon: Already?
Vier: Yea, already. *ends call*
Pinky: What did he say?
Noon: They're done and WAITING for us at the parking lot.
Pancake: Ugh. Let's go.
----------------------------------------
Pancake's driver drops off Tle and Noon at Tle's estate.
Tle: *bored* So what do you want to do here?
Noon: I don't know.
Tle: How about I get you something to drink?
Noon: That'll be great. Also, can you take my bag?
Tle: *takes Noon's bag* Sure.
Noon: Thanks.
Tle takes Noon's bag and walks off with it. When he lays it down, Noon's journal falls and opens up to the page titled CRUSHES. Tle reads it and finds out the truth:
Dear Journal,
I did what Prof. Trabjan wanted me to do and now I'm writing about my "own life". I don't really know what to write, so...
Anyways, I guess I should start off with talking about Tle. He's so cute and kind to me. But on the other hand, I do like this other guy.
However, he's Pinky's girlfriend. So...I don't know anymore. I guess it's a good thing that Tle asked me and that Win asked Ky.
Although Tle is cute beyond anything, he seems to be lacking the fun factor that Win seems to always have.
But better be happy with what you have than dream for something you don't, right?
Tle is in a state of shock and he puts the journal down, tears streaming down his eyes. He doesn't know what to do. Win better than him?
Noon: *walks to Tle and sees her journal* I...uh... *speechless*
Tle: You don't have to say anything. And I won't tell Ky, either. But why, Noon?
Noon: I'm sorry, Tle. Honestly!
Tle: I'll try to act as nothing happened but I'm not sure if I can do that...
----------------------------------------
The rest of the friends are at Win's home theatre, watching a movie.
Saifon: *runs to Win* P'Win, are these your new friends?
Win: Yes, Fon. Why?
Saifon: I donno. I was just asking...
Pinky: Win, your little sister is so cute.
Saifon: *cellphone rings* It's Dad. Umm...I better go.
Win: Dad again. I wonder what Fon did wrong this time...
Vier: *looks around* What else do you have here?
Win: I donno, just came back and they changed the whole place. The only place I can remember is my bedroom and the living room.
Pancake: *turns to Pinky* Your boyfriend's place is so...
Pinky: *blushes* He's not my boyfriend...yet.
Pancake: Oh please. Win's totally into you.
Pinky: Yea, but...
Pancake: No buts, PLEASE>
Win: *turns to Pinky* Ky, you wanna go to my bedroom?
Pinky: *surprised* Huh? What?
Win: ...I didn't mean it that way! I wanna see you in the dress, that's all.
Pinky: Uh...sure.
Win takes Pinky up to his room.
Vier: Can I see your dress...?
Pancake: Who, me?
Vier: Yes...
Pancake: Umm...ok?
Vier: C'mon, I won't say anything.
Pancake: You won't SAY anything, promise?
Vier: Sure. Ok. Whatever.
----------------------------------------
Pinky goes to change in Win's bathroom. She comes out some time later.
Win: *eyes wide* You're...so...beautiful, Ky.
Pinky: *blushes even more* ....thanks.
