The Author's POV

After leaving the train station, we arrived at Remolan street. A rather famous shopping area located in the central district of Ashton city.

Stepping into Remolan street, I was left in a daze.

People roaming everywhere, massive buildings, giant fountains, fancy restaurants, massive stores, and even arcades. This place had everything.

Glancing at the busy streets, I made a pledge to myself.

Right after buying a suit, If I still hadn't sold my kidneys, I had to treat myself to something fancy.

Similarly looking at the streets, Kevin asked, "I've only been here once, so are you going to be the guide?"

Emma, who had heard Kevin, pridefully nodded her head, "Of course, I've been coming here ever since I was a kid. I know this place like the back of my house. Not only do I know where most stores are located I also know who..."

Walking through the busy streets, Kevin and Emma continued to chatter. From time to time Amanda would join in on the conversation as Emma would forcefully drag her into it.

Kevin did try to bring me in the conversation multiple times, and when he did I half-heartedly replied.

"Ren, you've never been here before right?"

"No, I have not"

"Well, I've only been here once so I guess I'm just as clueless as you are"

"I guess so..."

While Kevin and I were talking, Emma's footsteps halted. Following her example, I along with Kevin and Amanda also stopped.

Looking up, I soon noticed that we had stopped in front of a large transparent door. Behind it were countless mannequins wearing different sets of clothes.

From suits to regular shirts, the mannequins wore different matching sets of clothes that perfectly complemented each other.

Taking my eyes away from the mannequins, the first thing I noticed as I took a closer look at the store before us was a large sign with the words [Shiplen tailor&clothing] engraved on it.

"This the place?"

"Yup, I know the manager here, so he can help you with regards to the suit, Moreover..."

Looking at Amanda, Emma excitedly said.

"...this place doesn't only sell suits but also sells other types of clothing"

"Women too?"

Nodding her head in confirmation, Emma placed her hand on the door handle and casually pushed it open.

"...Alright, let's go in"

Soon, the interior of the shop become became visible for anyone to see.

Just like Emma had said, the shop was divided into many different sections as there was a woman section, a male section, and a kids section.

Each section had different types of clothes with different prices on them.

"Where are the suits?"

As I entered the store, I was a bit on the fence.

The store didn't look like a store that made suits. Although I did in fact see some suits on display, they weren't anything fancy nor were they of high quality.

I'm sure Emma wouldn't just bring me here without reason.

Casually looking at the store, Emma replied.

"Before we get you a suit, why don't you choose some clothes first"

"Me?"

"Yeah, I first want to see what types of clothes you wear. From there we can choose a proper suit for you"

"Sure"

Realizing her intention, I nodded my head.

That made sense.

Since Emma was choosing a suit for me, she had to get a better idea of my tastes. After all, this was a suit for me not for her.
