Yvette dashed into the fating room, all smiles.

The clerk looked at Sienna, a little anxious. “Ms. Shaw, maybe check out some other dresses?!
Sienna shook her head. “Nah, I’m good. Gotta split.
She headed out, feeling a load off. No dress meant no party tonight. She wasn’t about to rock up in her workout gear. Zaid met her as she stepped out. “Done and dusted, Ms. Shaw?”
“Yep, Sienna replied with a smile. “Gotta hit the dance troupe first. I’ll make my own way to the party. Don’t sweat it, Zaid Zaid smiled, “Oh, okay”

Once the paperwork was wrapped, Sienna went to Rosie. They liked up and strolled out of the stations, heading back to one place
Sienna at the pharmacy nearby and snagged some disinfectant stuff. Once they were back in the apartment, she opened the bug danced over at Rouir, and then went to grab a comb She whipped Hostes hair into a tidy ponytail

“Sure thing “Rour nodded, leuing Sienna work her magic.
All gentle–like, and Rosie barely felt a thing, except for that tiny s
sting from the meds.
Afterward, Rowe pouted a little and murmured, “Sienna, thanks”
“No need for that,” Sienna chuckled, waving it off as she tidied up. “You’ve got my back too, right? No need for all this thank you business between
“Got it” Rosie grinned, realizing Sienna was all about that friend vibe. They hadn’t been hanging for long, but they just meshed really well. With everything squared away. Rosie looked a bit down in the dumps. Sienna pointed at Route’s mouth. “Eating’s gonna be a chore for you like this. What’s your dinner vibe“”
Just like Sienna figured, Rosie shook her head. “Nah, not feeling it. My stomach’s not talking
“No appetite, no prob Sienna uid, helping Rosie lie back just chill out. I can tell you ain’t in the mood to yap, so just take it easy and dont stress about anything”
“Sounds good” Hosie agreed, pressing her lips together and settling down.
Sienna quietly got up and closed the door behind her, but didn’t bolt just yet. She headed to the kitchen and cracked open the fridge.
Rotie could pick up on the soft rustling from outude her room. She knew Sienna was up to something, but sleep wasn’t happening for her.
After a bit, things oude got all quart. Then, Rosie’s phone dinged. It was a text from Sienna (Whipped up some pumpkin soup in the bowl and
