Chapter 8 - So Sad (Harrison, 1974)

AUGUST 8, 2038

"You guys took me in without second thought?" asked Mystic Light to Song Cue and Comet Tail.

"We wanted to give you the love that I didn't from Top Marks as a child," Comet explained.

"You sure did," Mystic smiled. "And I couldn't be more grateful for that." Just then, Song Cue's phone rang.

"Hey there, Songs," said a voice.

"Zephyr," she greeted. "How are you? I'm just with Comet, Mystic and the kids at the Sentries."

"Doing alright, cous," Zephyr replied.

"We were just telling Mystic and the kids about how Comet and I raised the former," Song Cue explained.

"I remember all of that," said Zephyr, "but where do I come into all of this?"

"Well, around that time, you managed to find a certain young girl from Manhattan," Song Cue pointed out.

"Sweet Coco Pommel," said Zephyr. "I remember now."

"Is Coco with the kids at home too?" asked Song Cue.

"Yes," Zephyr replied. "We'll swing over and tell the kids about how Coco and I found each other."

"Not the prettiest of stories, if I'm honest," Vincent muttered to himself.

"There were a few pitfalls, I'll admit," Song Cue replied.

"What kind of pitfalls, mom?" asked Venus.

"And why isn't the story pretty, dad?" asked Dawn.

"Well..." said Vincent. "Coco kind of had a thing for me, even when I was with Sunset."

"You and Coco?" gasped Mars. "Did she act like Blossomforth?"

"Fortunately, no," said Vincent.

"She acted more like Fluttershy around Big Macintosh when she had a crush on him," Song Cue told them. After a few more minutes, the group heard the doorbell.

"I've got it," said Twilight, and she opened up to see Zephyr, Coco and their kids, a son named Dancing Breeze and daughter named Blueberry Blur.

"Twilight, good to see you!" Coco gave Twilight a friendly hug.

"Hi there, Coco," said Twilight.

"Hey there, Twilight," said Dancing Breeze. He was sixteen years old and had Coco's lighter blue hair but Zephyr's pink eyes.

"Good to see you, Twilight," smiled Blueberry Blur. She was fourteen years old and had Zephyr's blonde hair but with Coco's darker blue streaks and Coco's blue eyes.

"You guys too. Come on, the others are in the family room." Twilight led everyone down.

"Dancing Breeze and Blueberry Blur are here!" cried Typewriter, rushing to them.

"Hey cousins!" said Mars, giving them a high-five.

"Hey guys," smiled Venus and Sugar Berry, hugging them.

"Good to see you guys too," Blueberry smiled. "What's been going on in here?"

"Well, we learned that Mystic Light here was raised by our parents when they were in high school," Venus explained.

"Then Twilight told us a bit about Morning Roast and Moon Dancer," Mars went on, "and about Twinkleshine realizing she was going to become a young mother, oh, and Twilight told us about how she became an aunt to Flurry Heart."

"Wow, really?" gasped Dancing Breeze. "That's a lot of information to take in at once."

"And apparently," said Dawn, "your mom liked my dad in high school." Coco blushed when she heard that.

"Uh... yes, that's true," she admitted. "Vincent was just a really sweet guy and, I couldn't help myself."

SEPTEMBER 2012

Coco Pommel was a freshman in Canterlot High School, an exchange student from Manhattan. Though she was shy, she did make good friends with Rarity, who was a senior at the time, when they discovered a love of fashion. She also managed to connect well with the likes of Fluttershy, who was a sophomore during this time, and Marble Pie, Pinkie Pie's twin sister, both of whom shared Coco's shy-like traits.

It was getting close to the Fall Formal once again, and Coco was chatting to Rarity, Fluttershy, Marble, Pinkie and Saffron on the matter.

"Who do you think you're going to go with, Rarity?" asked Fluttershy.

"Well, Math Equation and I have been friends for a while, especially during the past year," Rarity told Fluttershy. "And so, we decided to go together."

"Oh, that's very nice to hear," said Fluttershy.

"Cheese Sandwich asked me if I wanted to go with him," Pinkie Pie said. "And while he is cute, I can see he likes Skystar more. I'll see if I can get them to go instead."

"Where does that leave you, Marble?" asked Saffron.

"Pistachio..." she said in her meek tone.

"Oh, the son of Cinnamon Nut and Butter Nut," Rarity realized. "Yes, I know him."

"Doughnut Joe's asked me to go," Saffron went on.

"Aww, two chefs in love," gushed Coco. "How cute."

"That just leaves you, Coco," said Rarity.

"Well... there is a cute guy I set my sights on," she admitted.

"Oh? Who is it?" asked Saffron.

"Noteworthy..." she giggled bashfully. Noteworthy was a senior student at Canterlot High with moderate gamboge eyes and moderate cobalt blue hair. He was one of the top music students at the school, and one of few who could rival Song Cue in her singing abilities.

"I've seen him around a few times during my time here," said Rarity, "but we never became close. He seems nice enough."

"He thought I was very cute," giggled Coco, blushing.

"Aww! How sweet," smiled Fluttershy.

"Hey Fluttershy, do you have anyone you're going with this time?" asked Pinkie.

"Stormwalker, Thunderlane's younger cousin, asked me to go with him as a friend," Fluttershy explained.

The girls carried on with their lunch content. It seemed like things were set. And it only got better when Coco was on her way home from school.

"Hey, C-Coco..." Noteworthy looked at her shyly. "W-will you go with me to the Formal?"

Coco felt an overwhelming amount of joy rush through her. "I will!" she smiled, giving Noteworthy a hug.

"I'll see you then, Coco," said Noteworthy, and Coco practically skipped all the way to the train.

But a few days just before the Formal, Coco was in for a massive shock. Comet's older sister Lyra, who was in her senior year too, was playing her harp, and Noteworthy seemed captivated by her.

"Wow..." gasped Noteworthy. "That's beautiful, Lyra. Er... do you have a date for the Formal?"

"No, I'm open," said Lyra. "Do you have anyone else you're going with?"

"I was going to go with Coco, but... I think you're a much better fit," he replied. Coco felt her heart shatter the moment she heard what Noteworthy had said.

"W-what have I done wrong?" she sobbed, racing away from the scene. While in her haste, she accidentally bumped into Vincent.

"Oh... s-sorry..." she said through her tears.

"Coco?" asked Vincent. "What's wrong?" Coco sadly explained about how Noteworthy turned her down for Lyra. Vincent was shocked that Noteworthy could be so heartless like that.

"D-did I do something wrong?" Coco asked.

"No, you haven't!" exclaimed Vincent. "But the next time I see Noteworthy, I swear I might shove my fist into his jaw!"

"Now I don't know what to do for the Formal..." Coco sighed. Vincent's expression softened upon seeing Coco's sad face.

"I'm sorry for getting upset," he said gently, "but what Noteworthy did was very rude." Coco gave a shy nod and wiped tears away.

"Yes, I agree. W-we'd better get to class before the bell."

I wish I could help out Coco... Vincent thought to himself.

The next day, however, Celestia had bad news for Vincent.

"Sunset has the flu, and may not be better in time for the Formal," Celestia sighed.

"Bother," groaned Vincent. "What am I going to do now?"

"I do apologize," Celestia said quietly.

Soon it was the day right before the Formal, and Coco hadn't found anyone else and Sunset was still sick. At break time, Coco was resting on a bench, ready to give up on going to the Fall Formal, just as Vincent came up.

"Um... Vincent?"

"Hey, Coco," said Vincent. "Any luck with finding someone?"

"No," she said sadly. "Maybe I'm not meant to be with anyone at all..." Poor Coco began to cry again. Vincent didn't like seeing people cry, especially not someone as sensitive as Coco. He pulled her in for a comforting hug, which she accepted.

"Is Sunset well enough to go to the Formal?" asked Coco, trying to distract herself.

"No, she's still sick in bed," said Vincent. "She called me to say that she was okay with me going with someone else as a friend."

"Do you need help finding someone?" Coco went on.

"I suppose I do," said Vincent.

"I guess we're in the same boat," sighed Coco. Vincent was quiet for a moment. The way he and Coco got into the situation was very different, but the outcome was the same; neither he or Coco had dates for the Formal. And Coco was a very nice girl too...

"Coco," said Vincent at last, "will you go with me to the Fall Formal?"

Coco felt tears of happiness prick her eyes. She started to hug Vincent tightly. "Thank you, Vincent..." she said softly. "You've made me the happiest girl in the world."

"You're welcome," said Vincent quietly.

When the Fall Formal rolled around, Coco and Vincent were enjoying themselves, and they saw that Flash, Song Cue, Comet Tail and Flitter were having a much better time than last year.

"Looks like Orange Sherbet got the same idea you did, Vincent," Coco said. "He's asked Flitter to the Formal as a friend."

"That's good," said Vincent. "I'm glad Flash got to go with Twilight this year." Then he remembered. "Is Math okay?" Coco then gestured toward Math and Rarity having a good conversation together.

"Does that answer your question?"

"Well, I guess it does," Vincent chuckled. "Good for him and Rarity."

"Maybe they will become romantically involved after this," Coco giggled.

"I'm not sure if that's how it works, Coco," said Rainbow Dash, who came over with Soarin. "You may have listened to too many love songs recently."

"Well, we are at a formal, Dashie," Soarin pointed out. "Are there any love songs you like?"

"N-no!" Rainbow stammered. "Love songs are not my thing at all!"

"Sure they're not," said Vincent, rolling his eyes.

"You two are lucky to have found each other though, Soarin and Rainbow," Coco smiled.

"Thanks, Coco," said Soarin.

"It was tough going though," Rainbow put in. "There's this one guy who I knew through my friend Fluttershy who just wouldn't accept Soarin and I together."

"Who is it?" asked Coco.

"Fluttershy's younger bro, Zephyr Breeze," Rainbow muttered in disgust.

"Oh, I see," said Vincent.

"And... oh, shoot," groaned Rainbow. "When I'm a senior next year, Zephyr's going to be in his freshman year and Soarin's going to be at college."

"At least it's only one year and not three," said Vincent, hoping to cheer her up. He was also referring to Blossomforth being overbearing around him, but didn't mention it out loud.

"I just hope he doesn't try asking me to the Formal during next year..." Rainbow said quietly. But Coco couldn't help but wonder why Zephyr didn't approve of the relationship.

I think I'll chat with Zephyr when I meet him, she thought to herself.

SEPTEMBER 2013

The following year came and the Fall Formal was coming once more. Unfortunately, since Flash and Soarin were in college by now, Twilight and Rainbow couldn't ask them to go. Twinkleshine couldn't ask Brawly Beats either because he was expelled from the school system entirely.

"It's a shame," sighed Twilight. "Flash and I had such a good time last year."

"Same with Brawly Beats and me..." Twinkleshine added. "Why did he have to be expelled? It wasn't his fault he didn't know Mr. Doodle was allergic to fish."

"I was lucky to have a chance to go with Big Mac at all," said Fluttershy. "He was only in high school for one year the same as I was."

"At least Vincent gets to be with Sunset at long last," said Twilight.

"Yeah, good for him," said Rainbow Dash. Before she could say anymore, the group heard a voice.

"Rainbows! Guess who wants to go to the Formal with you!"

"Oh no..."

"I'm finally with you in high school, Rainbows," Zephyr said smoothly. "I can't wait to dance the night away with you."

"She's already got a boyfriend, Zephyr," said Fluttershy firmly.

"But... he's not in high school now is he?" Zephyr argued. "And didn't you go with Stormwalker last year?"

"He asked me as a friend," Fluttershy told her brother. "That's different."

"What do you see in Soarin anyway?" grunted Zephyr to Rainbow Dash. "I could be a good boyfriend."

"He's hardworking, friendly, humble and sometimes he can be a bit goofy but lovable at the same time. And so sweet..." Rainbow smiled to herself, remembering when they danced at the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Fall Formals together. If was as if she'd forgotten everyone else present.

"Ugh! Fine, just go on about Soarin then!" Zephyr groaned, storming off.

"Oh dear..." sighed Twilight. "Not another love triangle."

"How many of those are going to happen?" asked Twinkleshine.

"Who knows, girls?" sighed Fluttershy. "I thought they were crazy enough in The Sims 2 computer game in the town Pleasantview."

Back with Zephyr, he was not taking the sting of rejection well.

"Maybe I'm not good enough for anyone..." he sighed, sitting on the floor.

Just then, who should come up but Coco Pommel.

"You're upset because you got rejected, huh?" Coco said quietly.

"What do you think?" Zephyr muttered.

"I'll take that as a yes," said Coco, placing a hand on Zephyr's shoulder. "It can hurt, I know."

"I don't know who I'm going to go with to the Formal now..." Zephyr sighed.

"I... don't have anyone either," said Coco. "Maybe... you and I could go as friends."

"You?" Zephyr gasped. "I... I didn't think anyone would be willing to ask me to go."

"Why not?"

"Well, outside of my family and friends of the family, most people tend to avoid me," Zephyr explained. "Heck, there are times where I feel overshadowed by my sister and my cousins. Fluttershy is so good at tending to animals, Song Cue and Heartsong share their love of singing and it also turns out Fluttershy's singing talents got her in the Rainbooms, Song Cue and Heartsong aren't half bad with animals either, and Orange Sherbet and Butterscotch are top-notch cooks."

"Zephyr..." Coco gently held his hand. "Everyone has a talent deep within them. Including you. That's what Rarity helped me to see."

"But what could my talent be?" Zephyer sighed. "I've tried all the things my cousins and sister are good at and I'm hopeless at those things."

"Maybe... something about fashion?"

"I suppose I could try," said Zephyr.

Later, Zephyr was over at Coco's house and she was showing him how she made new clothes.

"It takes time and effort," Coco explained, "but it's worth it when it's all made."

"You really make all this yourself?" gasped Zephyr. "Wow... that's amazing."

"Sometimes Rarity helps me," Coco explained. "And... there was this time where I worked for Suri."

"Who's Suri..." Zephyr began, before remembering.

"It was a dark time for me," Coco said sadly.

"No one should be forced to work under those orders," Zephyr said firmly. "You have real talent, Coco. Suri's just a jealous bully."

"Y-you think that?" asked Coco, blushing slightly.

"I can just tell by all these clothes you've made and the ones you're planning on making in this book," replied Zephyr. "Don't let mean people hold you back."

Coco gave Zephyr a tight hug. "I won't," she whispered. "Thank you for the advice, Zephyr."

Soon, it was time for the 2013 Formal. Coco and Zephyr went as planned, and they saw Vincent dancing with Sunset.

"Vincent looks so happy to be with Sunset at last," Coco smiled.

"You went with him last year?" asked Zephyr. Coco gave a shy nod in reply.

"Vincent was so kind in letting me go with him."

Zephyr was shocked. Didn't Vincent like Sunset? he wondered. If so, why on earth would he ask Coco?

Later, Sunset and Vincent were crowned Princess and Prince of the Fall Formal.

"Aww, Vincent looks so handsome with a crown on," Coco whispered. Zephyr looked cross.

"I... I'm just getting some punch," he muttered, walking away.

Twilight was chatting with Moon Dancer, Twinkleshine, Rainbow and Fluttershy just as Zephyr stormed past.

"Gee, what's up with him?" said Moon.

"Who knows?" said Rainbow Dash. "Not really my issue."

"Zephyr said he was going to the Formal with Coco," Fluttershy told the girls. "But I don't see her with him."

"Coco?" asked Rainbow. "If I couldn't stand Zephyr, then a quiet girl like Coco would never get along with him."

"That's not what I heard," said Fluttershy.

"What are you saying, Flutters?" asked Twilight.

"Coco said she saw Zephyr upset from being rejected," Fluttershy explained, "and he was impressed with her clothes making."

"Then what could have happened with Zephyr and Coco to make the former run off?" asked Twinkleshine.

The group tried to think about why, but no ideas came to them. As the 2013-2014 year carried on by, Fluttershy couldn't help but notice that Coco would often blush when she saw Vincent or even give him compliments every once in a while. She became especially concerned when Vincent and Sunset officially became boyfriend and girlfriend.

"Oh my goodness..." Fluttershy said quietly. "What's going to happen when Sunset graduates?"

The answer came soon enough.

When August came, Vincent, Fluttershy, Twilight, Song Cue, Comet and the rest of the students in their year level were seniors. During the 2014-2015 year, Coco's crush on Vincent only became stronger.

One particular day in February, Coco was in one of her good moods. She saw Vincent eating his lunch with Twilight, Comet and Song Cue.

"Mind if I sit with you guys?" asked Coco.

"I don't mind," said Vincent.

"The more the merrier, Coco," Twilight smiled. "What's going on today?"

"I've been making some clothes based on some research I did on the Beatles," she said. "There was a time where they wore suits and mop-tops as I recall."

"Yeah, they were quite the influence back in the 60s," said Vincent, brushing some hair that had gotten into his face. Lately, it had been getting longer, almost down to his shoulders, and a mustache was beginning to grow on his face.

"I can tell by their photos," said Coco, and looked over toward Vincent. "I think there was a photo where they grew mustaches for one of their photo shoots."

"Actually, I read somewhere that Paul McCartney wore a fake mustache during the Sgt. Pepper's photo shoot," Song Cue said. "Though I can't remember why."

"It's all a rumor," said Vincent. "Just something people made up because they're crazy like that. Far as I know, Paul's alive."

"I think she meant something else entirely, Vincent," Twilight put in.

"Oh, I think she was talking about the motorcycle accident when Paul chipped a tooth," Coco realized. "He wore a fake mustache to cover up his stitches."

"Oh yeah," said Vincent. "I forgot about that."

"Heh, glad I reminded you," Coco giggled. She tried to hide her blushing by putting a hand on her cheek. Zephyr was looking on from another table where he, Fluttershy, Heartsong, Chip Mint, Saffron and Doughnut Joe were eating at.

"I don't believe this!" Zephyr growled. "First Rainbow rejects me, now Coco too?!"

"Coco doesn't like Vincent in that way... does she?" asked Heartsong.

"She's been blushing a lot since he asked her to the 2012 Fall Formal," Doughnut Joe explained.

"Not helping, Joe," Zephyr grunted.

"Should we jump to conclusions like that?" asked Chip Mint. "We don't know what's going on from Vincent's end of things. Maybe he just sees her as a friend and no more."

"That does sound like the best explanation," said Saffron. "Vincent's devoted to Sunset, no matter how many girls had crushes on him in the past. Maybe he even sees Coco as a sister figure."

"He's trying to ruin my chances of being happy with someone, that's what he's doing!" Zephyr groaned.

But just then, the students heard the sound of the bell.

"Not again!" Chip Mint sighed.

"That's getting really old," sighed Fluttershy.

"Let's get to class," Saffron got up and everyone walked off. "I've got writing right now."

"Same here," said Comet. "Let's sit together."

"See you after school, guys," said Song Cue. "I'm off to gym class."

"So have I," Coco said suddenly.

"I'm off to gym too," said Vincent.

"Let's all go together then," said Song Cue. "Spitfire says we may do a game if we're really good." Zephyr looked at his schedule again.

"Oh... I've got gym class too. Hmm... I can get Vincent then."

Later, in gym class, Spitfire was putting everyone through their paces, and she was impressed by their efforts.

"Looking good, students," she called. "If you keep this up, I think we can play dodge-ball later."

"I love dodge-ball," said Song Cue to Vincent. "Though, I am terrible at it. Give me thirty seconds and I'd be hit."

"I'm usually agile in avoiding being hit," said Vincent, "but that normally means having to use my classmates as a shield, which I do feel bad for."

"Well, I think you'll be far better than me," admitted Song Cue. "Just don't use me as a shield, okay?"

"Okay, Song Cue."

Later, Spitfire decided for the game to go ahead.

"Okay, everyone!" called Spitfire. "You know the rules. If a ball hits you below your shoulders, you're out!"

"But what if they hit you above the shoulder or on it?" asked a student.

"That would be foul play and the person who threw the ball is sent to the principal's office, Button Mash," Spitfire explained. "Unless, of course, it was an accident." Spitfire put the balls out on the court and blew the whistle.

"Let's play!" she called. Quickly, some of the students went to grab a ball or two.

"Here we go!" said Coco, and she threw a ball toward another student.

"Look out!" said another student, but the first student got hit.

"Good job, Coco!" called Vincent.

"Thanks, Vincent." Zephyr, meanwhile, didn't look happy.

"I'll show him."

He tried to hit Vincent with his ball, but it hit Button Mash's foot instead.

"Aw, man, I'm out," he complained.

"Missed..." Zephyr tried to get another ball, but they were all being used by other students at the moment.

"How am I gonna get him?" he said to himself. Zephyr barely avoided another ball but it hit Song Cue instead.

"I said I'd be out quickly," she muttered.

"At least you weren't used as a shield," said Vincent, hoping it'd cheer her up.

"Yes, that's true." Song Cue went to sit down with Button Mash and the other students who were out.

Later, it was down to just a few students; Vincent, Zephyr and Coco among them.

"Vincent's doing great," said Song Cue to Button Mash.

"Yeah, it's amazing he managed to last as long as he did," said Button Mash.

"I wonder who will win," Song Cue said to herself.

But then there was trouble; Zephyr took one of the balls and threw it hard. Before Vincent could see it coming, the ball whacked him right in the nose!

"Zephyr Breeze Shy!" snapped Spitfire. "What was that all about?"

Vincent groaned as he put both hands to where he'd been hit. When he looked down at them, he could see that his nose was bleeding. Song Cue jumped up from where she was and rushed to her friend's side.

"Miss Spitfire, could I take Vincent to the nurse's office?" she asked. She glared at Zephyr. "I can't believe my own cousin would do something as shallow as this!" she growled.

"Sure, Song Cue. You take Vincent," Spitfire nodded calmly.

"What did I even do to you?" asked Vincent to Zephyr. "I know we don't see eye to eye, but like Song Cue said, that's pretty shallow."

"What did you... I saw Coco blushing and giggling when she was with you nearly every day since I got here!" Zephyr retorted. At this point, Coco had joined the group.

"Vincent, oh Vincent, is it serious?"

"I think he'll be alright, Coco," Song Cue assured. "I was about to take him to the nurses' office."

"You're supposed to be paying attention to ME!" Zephyr cried out. "You didn't even try to find me during break time today. Why is it that every time I try to hang with you, you make up some excuse to ditch me? It's not fair!"

"Stop that." The three of them turned to face Coco, who was now giving Zephyr a very dangerous stare which made him uncomfortable.

"He's boned," said Vincent to Song Cue.

"Not the word I'd use, but yeah," Song Cue agreed.

"Zephyr Breeze!" Coco said acidly. "You are by far the most arrogant and self-centered boy I have ever met. You brag to everybody thinking that you are the greatest in school even though you're not. You, for instance, bullied Morning Roast into making her feel like she's unwanted, and flirted with Rainbow Dash constantly even though she was already taken! To be honest, I don't care at all for your arrogant nature! Why can't you be a gentleman like Vincent?"

Zephyr winced at what she had said, but Coco did not stop there.

"Ever since we met," she continued, "I've been wondering to myself what was wrong with you. Why is it that you're always trying to show off and make people think you're the best instead of thinking about other people's feelings? You didn't even show any concern for Vincent when he got hurt because of you! I don't like a guy that's arrogant and doesn't care for those around him, Zephyr Breeze."

Everyone, even Spitfire, stared in silence at Coco's calling out towards Zephyr; never did they imagine someone as soft-spoken as her to be that up with someone like that. Needless to say, Zephyr didn't take very kindly to what she had said.

"I think I get what you're saying, Coco," he said, calmly at first, before getting angrier. "What you're saying is that you have always hated me!"

"Zephyr..." Coco said quietly, any traces of anger gone.

"All this time you've been deceiving me, making me think there was a light in my life when all along you've fed me false hopes to make me think that we'd be boyfriend and girlfriend one day, only to rip my heart in half and crush my dreams just for personal amusement!"

"Cous..." gasped Song Cue, but Zephyr had angry tears coming down his eyes now. Even Vincent was shocked by his behavior.

"I can't believe I wasted two years' worth of high school trying to get a selfish, heartless witch like you to notice me!" he continued, causing Coco to fearfully back up into a wall. "If you didn't care for me, you could've at least had the decency to say so rather than waiting to break my heart! If you want nothing to do with me, then I want nothing to do with you either! I hate you, Coco Pommel! Do you hear me?! I HATE YOU! I never want to see or talk to you ever again!"

"Zephyr Breeze, that is enough!" snapped Spitfire. "Go to Principal McCracken's office!" Zephyr sulked off without needing to be told twice.

"Come on, Vincent, let's get that nose better," Song Cue said quietly. Coco whimpered where she was and started crying.

"Oh, Coco..." sighed Song Cue.

"Do you want to go with someone and get some water, Coco?" asked Spitfire. Coco sniffled and nodded.

"I'll go with you," said Button Mash. Vincent and Song Cue headed towards the nurse's office while Coco and Button Mash went toward the drink taps, the shy fashion lover sadly thinking over what had just happened.

How can I make things right now? she wondered.
