Half an hour later. Rose had only picked clothes that caught her eyes. All through the entire time Louisa kept briefing Rose about each clothes and their quality but only a few caught Rose's attention. She'd prefer to dress in much more simple dark color clothes rather than those childish clothes
“Are you deaf? Didn't you hear that I was calling you?" Tegan, who was none other than the person who had grabbed Rose's hand, spoke. She was already pissed off at the fact that Rose ignored her calling which resulted in her running a bit in her high heels to cover the distance. Rose let out a tir

They began the game in silence, the soft clink of chess pieces the only sound. Frank’s moves were calculated, deliberate, but he quickly realized Rose wasn’t an easy opponent. Her strategy was sharp, her responses precise, and it wasn’t long before she had him on the defensive. Frank leaned back in
