Chapter Three
Kari and Zoe were in Rika's room, helping her decide on what clothes to wear to the dance with Ryo.
"Okay...what about this one?" Rika showed herself in a blue tang top and white flare jeans with a chain around the waist. Zoe and Kari sat there thinking of what to say.
"It's so so..." Zoe couldn't finish her sentence.
"So plain," Kari finished off for Zoe.
"Yeah, what she said. You can't show up wearing like that," explained Zoe.
"And why not? It's just a dance," Rika said.
"It's not just 'a' dance. It's 'the' spring dance with Ryo!" Kari pointed out.
"She's right you know," Zoe agreed.
"You guys! What's the big deal!" Rika asked.
"The big deal is that you don't know how to dress yourself at all for a dance," Zoe answered her.
"So...what now?" Rika fell onto her bed.
Zoe and Kari both looked at each other with wicked grins, knowing what the other one was thinking. Rika got up from her bed and saw two pairs of eyes staring at her.
"Oh no you two don't!" Rika got in motion to run but quickly Zoe and Kari grabbed her just in time.
"No! You can't do this to me! You guys!" Rika screamed.
"Stop complaining Rika!" Zoe struggled with her.
"Besides...it's not gonna kill you or anything," Kari pointed out.
So they dragged Rika out to the mall and to the most popular clothing store...LIGHTS! Rika tried on every clothes Zoe and Kari picked out.
"That one!" exclaimed Zoe after Rika came out.
"This one?" Rika asked confused. "Hell no,"
"Come on Rika! It looks great on you! Don't you think so Kari!" Zoe turned to Kari, hoping she would agree.
"Ummm...I don't know...it looks plain...not really Rika-type," Kari said.
"Good point. Next!" Zoe sat right back down as Rika annoyed by all of this, went back in for the other one.
"Okay...now what?" Rika asked the two friends.
"It's beautiful Rika!" Zoe cried.
"Abosolutly! Ryo will just die when he sees you wearing this!" Kari agreed.
"You think?" she asked, not sure.
Zoe and Kari nodded their heads and Rika decided to take it. After that, the girls went to go get lunch. They went to a fast food restaurant in the mall. Each one got what they wanted. They got a table near a plant.
"You're gonna get fat if you eat all of those Zoe," Kari pointed out, drinking from her coke can.
"So...I don't wanna be skinny like you Kari," Zoe teased.
"Say that one more time!" Kari started.
"It's always the same with you two," Rika ordered, taking a bite from her big mac.
They stayed and ate for awhile until they saw Sasumi, Yuri and Lina. The girls stop in front of each other.
"Well well well, look who's here," Sasumi crossed her arms and cocked her head to the side with an evil grin.
"What do you want Sasumi?" Rika asked, already annoyed by Sasumi for the past couple of months.
"Nothing. Can't a friend stop by and say hello?" she raised an eyebrow.
"Since when were we ever friends?" Zoe wondered.
"Tch. Very funny Zoe. Oh...and one word of advice to you...you seriously need some fashion tips," she added coldly.
"Hmph! I'll show you!" Zoe aimed forward Sasumi but Rika and Kari held her back. Sasumi stepped back a few spaces. Rika let go of Zoe's arm and walked up to Sasumi's face.
"Back off. You got that?" Rika warned.
Sasumi grew silent. "Tch. Just because you're Ryo's girlfriend, that doesn't mean I can't hurt you...but since you're just a punk, I guess you might go crying so I'll hold that thought for now," Sasumi flipped some of her hair back as Rika held a fist. She got real mad and BAM! Rika gave Sasumi a big punch on her cheek! Sasumi fell on the floor as people scurried away.
"Sasumi!" Yuri and Lina cried, helping their friend up.
Sasumi held her hand to her bruised up cheek.
"You bitch! How dare you punch my beautiful face like that!" Sasumi barked. Yuri and Lina held her back while Zoe and Kari held Rika back. Crowds of people stared and some walked away from the area.
"It's not my face so I don't really care for an ugly face like yours. You got that?"Rika said.
"Sasumi...there's too many people in here," whispered Yuri.
Sasumi flung them off and walked up to Rika's face.
"You better watch your back Nonako, or else, you and your little friends will get it," she warned and walked away with her friends following right behind her.
"Ohh, I'm scared," Zoe acted sarcastically.
"Come on...let's get out of here," suggested Kari.
"Good idea," Rika still had her eyes on the back of Sasumi though.
"And you better watch yours Shidou..."
