6. A Makeover is the Way to a Man’s Heart

The rest of the week went by with very little drama. Thank God. By the time the weekend rolled around, the superlative fiasco was all but forgotten. Everyone had been invited to Kenton Lane’s family’s lake house for a party Saturday night, and I’d decided it would be the perfect place to stage the next phase of my plan.

Not to mention Kenton was one of the rich kids who was cute in an awkward way but was being overlooked by the girls because they’d yet to realize the rich nerds would one day become wealthy marriage material. It was a shallow way of thinking, but sometimes the best relationships began with shallow intentions. It wasn’t like I planned on marrying him or anything.

Since Reese was working at the Yogurt Shack all day to make up for skipping the week before, Morgan and Wen Li agreed to tag along with me to the salon and mall afterwards. Big mistake.

“Oh, you should wear this tonight!” Morgan squealed as she grabbed some sort of anime shirt off the rack. We were at the thrift store looking for something trendy for me to wear to the party, but all Morgan could do was suggest things she would like to wear.

“Wen Li, help me?” I pleaded.

She blinked twice.

I continued to skim the racks, picking out a few skirts and tops that caught my eye as I did so. While I was finding things I’d normally like to wear, nothing had that “wow” factor.

Someone tapped me on the shoulder, and I turned to see Wen Li holding up super short cutoffs, a fitted, white lace halter crop top, and a light pink cardigan.

“Wen Li, it’s perfect!” I gasped.

No smile. No nod. She just continued to hold up the outfit she’d pieced together.

I grabbed the items from her and darted into the dressing room. Oh boy, was it revealing. I was about two inches away from showing the world my butt and lady jewels, and apparently bras weren’t in mind when the shirt was made. The shorts had a high waist, but most of the midriff still showed. Add a pair of booties, and the outfit was set.

I did a butt check and smiled. This was going to make all the guys go crazy. Without showing it to the girls, I quickly changed back into my regular clothes and dashed over to the counter to pay for my purchases before I could talk myself out of it.

After we left the thrift store, we went over to the hair salon to see what could be done with my boring, brown hair.

Morgan immediately sat down in her stylist’s chair and started talking about the possibility of rainbow roots. Wen Li’s stylist tried to get her to open up in conversation, but my quiet, little friend remained silent as usual.

“So, what will it be today?” my stylist asked as she draped a cape over my chest and snapped it together around my neck.
