Chapter 4: Pop star eye for the questionable guy

The 'love fest' was interrupted by a high pitched voice yelling 'epi-chan!' just outside the house. Ari raced to the window and saw Linda. "Just great," he thought.

There was fear in Epros's eyes, as he said, "How did she find me? This cannot be. Hide me, I beg thee!" Stan chuckled. "ha ha ha. Are you scared of that little girl?" Epros glared at him. "Dost thou know not, if she cannot find me, her target will be thee?" Stan hesitated. "I am the great evil king! I fear no one!" Marlene sighed and thought, "Could he get anymore thick headed?" Ari's Dad directed Epros to the basement.

The front door burst open, and Linda came skipping in. "Hello everyone! Oo, are you having a party?" She paused, "I was sure I heard Epi's voice in here just a moment ago." Then she looked around and saw good-old shadowy Stan. "Stan!" she yelled. She ran up to him and squeezed him.

Stan squirmed and tried to push her away. "Ack get off of me!" She didn't move. "The basement! He's in the basement!" Linda squealed and ran to the basement.

She ran down the stairs, barging in. Epros started sweating, and he stood there stiff. Linda grabbed his arm and dragged him upstairs.

"Wouldn't Epi-chan look so much better if he didn't dress like such a silly-billy?" she said. There was no response. "I know! I can give him a make-over. Hehe. This will be fun. Come on Epi." Everyone starred blankly. No one objected, since they all secretly wanted to see the outcome.

"Ari, do you mind if we borrow your room for a bit?"

"uh…yes?" He answered.

"Thank ya sow much!"

Ari wondered if she was even listening for an answer. Epros could only utter, "alas." Thus the make-over madness began.

Linda dragged Epros into Ari's room, Ari, Stan, Marlene, and Roslyn followed.

Linda went through Ari's closet. All he had was tan pants, blue stripped shirts, and vests. She said, "These clothes won't do! They're all nerdy!" Then she began to go through a draw. Ari looked nervous, "uh…"

Linda dug through the draw, throwing his socks, head bands, and gloves over her shoulder, until she came across a folded piece of paper. "hm, what's this?" She unfolded it, looked at it, and then quickly put it on the ground face down. This made the other curious. Roslyn picked it up and held it so they could all see it. Ari's cheeks turned very red. It was a poorly drawn sketch a naked woman wearing strange head gear holding parasol. It said "Rosy-chan," with an arrow.

Ari was slapped by both Roslyn and Marlene, one slap on each cheek. His cheeks became even redder. He was in a lot of pain.

"Well, we can't make epi-chan over using any of these clothes," Linda said. Epros sighed in relief, and Linda continued, "but don't worry. I have an idea. Be right backies, hehe." Linda left the room, and returned 7 minutes later, wearing one of Ari's mother's dress. She was carrying her dress, a pair of high heel shoes, and a large cosmetics case.

Epros ended up in Linda's dress and the high heel shoes, with blush, sparkly pink lip gloss, pink eye shadow, pink nail polish, and pink bows in his hair.

"Your new look looks so cute with your adorable blonde hair!" Linda squealed. Everyone else laughed and pointed for quite some time.
