章 43: Consequences

When she arrived at school, the morning passed in its usual blur until, predictably, Malia and Orla showed up late, hustling to their seats without a care. The school day rolled on, and just as classes ended, Malia made a beeline for Eira.

"So, what are you shopping for?" Malia asked, eyes alight with curiosity.

Eira shrugged. "Mostly clothes, and I need some hair and body products. I might pick up a few other things while I'm at it."

Malia's face lit up. "I know just the place! You'll love it."

After school, they gathered their things, made their way to the waiting cars, and headed to the shopping mall Malia had recommended. 

"Alright, first stop!" Malia announced, dragging them into a sleek boutique brimming with sexy, chic, and trendy outfits. The racks displayed everything from oversized tops to sleek leather skirts, high-waisted jean trousers, and fitted crop tops in an array of colors.
