'Even the prettiest doll is just a toy.' Roseanne decided, 'Let whoever wants to play with it, I'm done playing.'-

Stepping out of the hair salon, Roseanne felt a sense of liberation wash over her. Conveniently, there was a sales promotion at the Uniqlo store next door. She popped in and picked out a white tee and a pair of jeans, changing into them right there. They matched her sneakers perfectly.
