When I tried them all together, I almost couldn't believe my own reflection. The crimson dress set off my pale skin perfectly, and my dark, curly hair looked like it belonged on a magazine cover.
It looked perfect, so perfect that I wanted to scream and jump like a little kid. For the first time today, I felt genuinely happy with how I looked.
All the awful things I'd seen and gone through earlier just melted away the moment I saw my reflection.
Unfortunately, when it came time to pay, I couldn't help but wince a little.
[Penny deducted $750 from Host's balance: Luxury Hair & Makeup Package + Boutique Purchase.]
[Remaining Balance: $58,315]
I almost cried when I realized I had spent more than two thousand dollars in a single day. My poor balance! But fine, totally fine. I was going to get ten grand back for this, so it was worth it. Right?
[Host, Penny advises you not to take this quest lightly.]
[There's a chance you might fail.]
