The Hockey Star’s Remorse

Chapter 87

I blinked in surprise. “A makeover? Why on earth would I need that?”

Aria nodded vigorously. “Because you’re going to dazzle everyone! We’ll pick out the perfect outfit, glam you up, and make sure you steal the spotlight.”

I chuckled, shaking my head. “Aria, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I’m not sure if a makeover is necessary.”

Aria put her hands on her hips, giving me an incredulous look. “Evie, come on! It’s not about necessity, it’s about having some fun and boosting your confidence.”

Thesitated, feeling both excited and uncertain about the idea. “I don’t know, Aria…”

Aria playfully nudged me. “Come on, Evie! It’ll be fun, I promise. And who knows, you might even enjoy the change.”

I chuckled softly, giving in to her enthusiasm. “Alright, fine. But let’s keep it simple, okay?”

Aria clapped her hands in victory. “Deal! Now, let’s raid your closet and see what we’ve got to work with.”

As Aria started digging through my closet, I couldn’t help but laugh at her determination. “You really are something else, Aria.”

She looked up at me, a mischievous grin on her face. “That’s why you love me!”

I decided to get up and help her, pulling out various clothing articles until the closet was practically empty. None of it really spoke to us. My entire wardrobe was consumed by dull browns and beiges. Looking at it now, I knew I had to step up my game in the wardrobe department. Aria, my ever- enthusiastic fashion guru, had taken it upon herself to transform my closet into a treasure trove of chic possibilities. However, her efforts had left me staring at a sea of clothes that felt entirely foreign to me.

“Aria, are you sure about this?” I asked, holding up the one blouse that seemed to have more sequins than fabric.

Aria turned to me, her eyes lighting up at the sight. “That looks fierce! You have set of bottoms to match?”
