128. Shopping
THE NEXT MORNING
Athena and Dominic were busy from the time they woke up. They had so much work to do that they didn't even have the
time to have breakfast together.
Dominic had something in the pack house while Athena had something while feeding Ace. After that she dropped him off
at the playground with other pups.
As soon as she was done there, she was dragged away from there by Patricia and Suzanne. They were taking her to the
mall to get her ready for tomorrow. Even though Suzanne didn't look as enthusiastic as she should be because it was
Athena's biggest day. But Athena didn't say anything about it and focused on herself at that moment.
"Athena! Are you done trying that dress out? How long are you going to take to try just one dress? We have so much
more to do!" Athena jumped a little after hearing Patricia shout from outside the changing room. Patricia's tone was
completely like a mom scolding her annoying child who takes forever to get ready for school.
"Coming, coming! Geez!" Athena said while opening the door of the trial room. "The chain was stuck with something."
She said while coming out and standing in front of Patricia and Suzanne.
"What do you think of this?" Athena asked nervously while looking at them for their consent. She actually really liked this
dress. They have made her change at least more than a hundred dresses.
She was exhausted as well and at the same time she really liked the dress. It was a red dress with a mermaid tail. It has
beautiful expensive rose embroidery with diamond studded all over the roses. It was a really beautiful dress. It has a
sweetheart neckline. She really loved it. So, she just needed her friends to pass the dress.
"Oh my! Goodness!"
"Oh my my, Athena!"
Suzanne and Patricia shouted at the same time while looking at her with astonished eyes.
"Hell yeah!" Patricia shouted, making her sigh in relief.
"Now I can rest in peace!" Athena sighed in happiness.
"Hell no. We still have a lot to shop for!" Saying that Athena was dragged by Patricia and Suzanne somewhere else.
"Girls! I don't want to. It's enough. I am tired." Athena whined from the side bench where she was currently seated with all the
things she bought from the past few hours. Which was just only a dress.
"Come on, bestie. It'll be fun! And at least this way you can make sure that you look the prettiest on your best day." Patricia
states as she was standing in front of Athena with her hands on her waist. She couldn't believe that there are women in this
world who don't love shopping. She has heard about such ladies only in movies and fiction.
"But why do I need to go? You know I don't like to go shopping! I trust both of your choices. I know you both are going to get the
best for me. Can't you do this for me?" Athena said with a pout while giving them her best puppy dog eyes.
"No, we can't." Suzanne brutally rejected her pouty face while Athena frowned at her.
"Great, now that it's settled! Come on, let's go then!" Patricia quickly looked down to her list to decide where she was going to go
then.
"Suzy! I was completely prepared with my full on pout -face! You just can't reject it so brutally. That is unfair!" Athena almost
screamed with a pout which the girls found totally adorable.
"Come on, Luna. Get up so we can go, we have a lot of things to try on before we can make a choice." Patricia excitedly
exclaimed and happily skipped toward new shops. Giving her a stern look, Suzanne follows behind Patricia as well.
Athena stood up from the bench, grumbling and almost fell face down on the ground because her legs were tangled. The girls
giggled and laughed harder when they saw the Luna's annoyed face.
"Come on you clumsy, let's find something hot for you to wear after the party is over. If you know what I mean." Suzanne teased,
making Athena turn completely red.
"Suzy! I am going to make you do such weird things after I officially become your Luna! You will see!" Athena gritted her teeth
before following them with defeated shoulders.
They've been in about ten stores already and they've got a pretty good idea of what they want for them for the after party after
the ceremony. They've come to the conclusion that everybody is going to wear the same and they've decided gowns only,
following the dress code which was black for the after party. They were mostly excited about the after party. That's when the fun
was going to happen. Everything which they planned.
If only they knew that they wouldn't be able to reach that anyway.
"Let's shop for the boys.." Athena suggested and the girls immediately agreed, they couldn't let such an opportunity go.
"Let's go!"
"Okay, girls, what about this?" Patricia held up the first dark coloured blazer she could find in hopes that Athena would actually
like something because she'd been literally turning down everything they held up for the past hour. They already bought suits for
Nathan and Justin but Athena couldn't choose anything for Dominic.
It's a dark grey blazer and a little white stripe on each side which turn out to be the beginning of pockets. Athena looked up for
about three seconds and shook her head.
With a sigh, Patricia dropped the blazer somewhere and started to wander around the store. It's actually quite a nice store. Big.
Athena is not a big fan of shopping so she actually doesn't know if it's really a good store but since Patricia took her there it must
be. But still she couldn't find anything that would make Dominic look the finest-...
Suddenly something caught her eyes...
"Girls, look I've found the perfect thing!" Athena exclaimed and the girls immediately looked at what Athena found.
Their Luna held it up proudly and she was right it was perfect. It's a simple dark blue vest. It's the exact balance between a sharp
contrast with the white t- shirt and still matching with the black pants without being the exact same colour.
"Yes, this is exactly what we need." Athena said as she walked over to the counter to ask for Dominic's size.
"She suddenly got energy to do shopping?" Patricia asked in an amused tone while looking at a happy Athena.
"She's always energetic to do something for her close ones." Suzanne said with a smile while admiring Athena as well.
"Are you done?" Suzanne asked as they walked toward Athena who just got the suit packed.
"Yes!" Athena exclaimed happily.
"Girls, how about we go to ice cream and then go for a movie? Let's make it a memorable girls day?" Patricia offered and
Suzanne and Athena immediately agreed.
"Let's do this!" (The chapter isn't that important. I just wanted to give the girls a few scenes together to show their bond which are
like normal girls. Thank you and love you!)
