Bab 48: Party time

I'm ready in just under half an hour. The before and after transformation is pretty impressive, even I have to say so myself. I've changed out of my pink pyjamas and I'm now wearing a red dress with a scoop neck and long sleeves.

My legs are bare and I take a moment to gaze at them. They aren't covered in bruises or cuts for the first time in years however if you look closely, you could still see the scars. I wear nude heels on my feet and decide I'm happy with my entire outfit choice.

My hair is pulled down from my usual messy and is now curled to perfection, framing my face prettily. I wear a dark smokey eye with a nude lip and when I glance at myself in the mirror, I have to do a double take. I barely recognise the girl staring back.

The last few weeks consisted of me makeup free, messy hair and lying around in jogging bottoms. So this is definitely a change. Ivory grins widely at me from behind —

"You look hot."
