Wednesday, 9/26/07 Who: Arcelia and Lelia Where: Arc's room. When: evening, after dinner. What: Makeover!
Arcelia reached for her large makeup case and placed it on the desk in preparation for her guest. She liked makeovers as much as any other girl and from what she could tell, Leila needed a dose of confidence. Good thing Arc was ready to give her the whole treatment - even lending some of her clothes if it got Leila attention from men. Who said she wasn't altruistic? Paying it forward and everything. Slipping on her fuzzy socks, she sat on the bed to wait for a knock on the door. She had already eaten a disgusting amount of food and that was bad; she needed to cut down on the gorging after she had the baby. It might get to the point where she exhausted herself, but such was the price to pay for beauty.
Since Arc had invited a girl to hang out in her room for once, she decided to make the place cozier by only having her desk and floor lamp light the room.In addition, she propped pillows up against the wall to create a makeshift couch before turning on her stereo to play indie music at a quiet volume. God, her belly rebelled against her. The baby kicked once and she placed a hand on the space where it happened. "You won't have to be bored for much longer. She's going to be here soon," she said and then realized she was talking to an unborn child who would not remember the conversation either. Definitely going insane, that was the only reason to explain this behavior.
A sudden thirst gripped her and she grabbed a huge water bottle to take a swig. To pass the time, she reached back to braid her hair and pick out the right scented lipgloss she felt like wearing today. Watermelon appealed to her, so Arc smeared some on her lips, making sure it was properly applied. Looking good, she thought as she saw her reflection in the mirror. She knew that she would be able to persuade Leila into wearing something hot and not be scared to have it on her body. Having a new project was so fun!
