Bab 12: Chapter 12: Shopping spree

Roman knocked on Bianca's bedroom door, and she called out, "Enter!"

As he opened the door, Bianca's eyes widened in surprise. "Roman, what...what happened to you?" she stammered.

Roman smiled knowingly, "You mean my new look?"

Bianca nodded, "Yes! I didn't notice it at first, but now it's like...wow! You're like a completely different person!"

Roman chuckled, "Well, I'm still the same old me, but I guess I've just...levelled up."

Bianca laughed, "Levelled up? You mean like in a video game? Roman, you're such a nerd!"

Roman grinned, "Hey, it's a valid analogy! And besides, I'm just glad you like the new me."

Bianca teased, "I'm just wondering if you got a plastic surgery or something!"

Roman playfully rolled his eyes, "No, no plastic surgery here! Just a little...self-improvement."

Bianca stared at her brother and said while laughing, "I'm sure you didn't come here just to flex your face right?"

Roman smirked and said, "Of course not! I was thinking...let's go shopping today!"

Bianca's eyes widened in shock. "Shopping? You want to go shopping? Roman, you never go shopping!"

Roman shrugged, "I know, but I thought it would be fun. Plus, I need some new clothes."

Bianca's face lit up with excitement. "Oh my gosh, yes! Let's go! I'll get ready right away!"

Roman smiled, "Great! I'll wait for you outside."

Bianca nodded eagerly and closed the door to prepare, leaving Roman chuckling to himself. He was glad she was excited, but he knew this shopping trip would be an adventure. His sister loved shopping, and he was about to enter a whole new world.

Roman didn't wait for his sister to come out, instead, he went to inform Albert to prepare the car. "Albert, we're going shopping today. Please get the car ready."

Albert nodded, "Yes, sir. Right away."

Roman then went to wash up and freshen up for their outing. As he was drying his face, he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror and paused. His current long hair didn't quite suit his new handsome look. He thought to himself, "I should get a haircut while we're out shopping. A new look for a new me."

Feeling refreshed and ready, Roman headed out to meet Bianca, who was now waiting for him by the door, looking excited and stylish. "Let's go, Roman! I'm so ready for this shopping trip!"

Roman smiled, "Me too, sis. Let's go enjoy ourselves."

Together, they headed out to the car, ready to take on the day and all the shopping adventures that came with it.

They got into the car, and Roman instructed Albert to drive to the mall, which was a short distance away. "Albert, please take us to the mall. It's not too far from here."

Albert nodded and started the engine. The ride was smooth and comfortable, and they arrived at the mall in just 20 minutes.

As they pulled up to the entrance, Bianca's eyes widened in awe. "Wow, this mall is spectacular! It's so massive!"

Roman smiled ,Malls in Nova Haven are a bit different from what we're used to outside of the country. They have everything here - car dealerships, clothing stores, food, entertainment... almost everything you can think of.

Albert parked the Mercedes Benz in a VIP parking garage, and Roman noticed that Albert seemed to have a membership. "Albert, you've got a VIP parking pass? You're a man of luxury, I see."

Albert chuckled, "Just a small perk, sir. Let's go enjoy your shopping experience."

As they stepped out of the car, Bianca grabbed Roman's arm, excitement radiating from her face. "Let's go explore! I can't wait to see what this mall has to offer!"

Bianca had not visited the mall many times, so her excitement was justified. Roman was happy to see her this happy, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy himself. He loved seeing his sister thrilled and carefree.

This mall was indeed massive, and every visit felt like an adventure. With its endless corridors, sprawling stores, and diverse attractions, it was a place where you could always discover something new.

As they entered the mall, Albert chose to follow them, saying, "I'll help carry the bags, sir. And maybe provide some extra security, just in case."

Roman nodded, "Thanks, Albert. We appreciate it."

Bianca grinned, "Let's start with the clothing stores! I need some new outfits!"

Roman smiled, "Lead the way, sis. Today's all about you and your shopping spree!"

As they strolled towards one of the shops, Roman turned to Bianca and said, "Hey, sis, I've been thinking... I need a haircut."

Bianca looked at him with a grin, "Oh, finally! You're starting to look like a hippie with that long hair of yours!"

Roman chuckled, "Hey, watch it! I'm just trying to express myself."

Bianca teased, "Express yourself? You're expressing yourself right into the 60s and 70s with that hair!"

Roman laughed, "Okay, okay. I get it. I need a haircut. Will you come with me to the salon?"

Bianca nodded enthusiastically, "Of course! I want to make sure they don't mess it up. And who knows, maybe we'll even get you a makeover!"

Roman playfully rolled his eyes, "One step at a time, sis. Let's just start with the haircut."

Bianca giggled, "Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you... you're in for a transformation!"

Albert, who was following behind them, couldn't help but smile at the siblings' banter.

They entered the hair salon, and the air was fresh and crisp, filled with the sweet scent of hair products and the soft hum of conversation. The atmosphere was modern and sleek, with sleek black chairs and gleaming silver equipment. Soft music played in the background, creating a relaxing ambiance.

Roman waited for a bit, flipping through a magazine, until it was his turn. He stood up and approached the hairdresser, a woman with a warm smile and skilled hands.

"Hello there! What can I do for you today?" she asked, eyeing his long hair.

Roman shrugged, "I trust your expertise. Do what you think fits me best."

The hairdresser nodded, "I love a blank canvas! Let me work my magic."

She began to examine his hair, running her fingers through it, and Roman felt a sense of excitement and anticipation. He was ready for a change, and he knew this hairdresser was just the person to give it to him.

With a nod, she began to work her scissors, and Roman closed his eyes, ready to embrace his new look.
