Hurry, we're running late,” Amber's voice echoed along the hallway. “We don't want to miss the event, do we?” while looking at herself in the mirror. She wore a white silky-smooth dress, simple and elegant, her hair tied in a bun and used a red bold lipstick ‐ one she reserves for special occasions. “I'm coming!” Zara responded as she ran towards the door where Amber was standing waiting for her. “How do I look?” She twirled in her glittering black dress with silver straps. “You look like trouble, let's go,” Amber giggled as they both headed out while she locked the door from behind.
