Autumn began that very Saturday with the temperature 17 degrees exactly. My (call me Ralph) grandfather took me and Ffion to 'New Fashion' to buy us some clothes. He was a very rich man and often treated me to nice things-for instance, gems and pearls-that I chose. I hadn't been to 'New Fashion' for ages and me and Ffion were dazed at the beauties on display.
We had stepped out of the silver Porsche when we were frozen with awe. I grabbed Ffion and we ran up to the clean, clear windows. Pressing our hands against the cool surface, we admired the dresses and shoes. Ralph dragged us into the shop and we just literally turned statue-still. There were gorgeous dresses and beautiful accessories. It was as good as 'Ciao Bella!' but more expensive, a lot more!
A pretty red-haired assistant walked over to us and asked the usual 'Can I help you?'. "A dress, a necklace, an earing, shoes." I stuttered, feeling butterflies flying in my tummy. Ffion had gone quiet, eyes staring at the assistant. "Danique! Is Clea here? S'il vous plait revenir! (Please come back! in French)". Danique swept Ffion into a reunion hug and gave a nod which came with a reply, "Oui(Yes)! Clea is here working!" also accompanied by my confused glances. So it went on until Ralph cut in.
Happily, Danique and Clea checked our sizes, eye colour, hair colour and skin colour, then, went off to hunt out some perfect dresses, earrings, those sort and shoes. Meanwhile, Ffion explained that Danique and Clea left home after an argument with their mum. They switched mobile numbers and stopped letting on where they were on 'Facebook'. In fact, they just stopped contact. The police searched for a while, then, gave up. It was all over the news, Ffion and her family's faces plastered on the papers. Finally, Clea and Danique were found here.
Just then, they arrived with two dresses, two earrings, two necklaces and two pairs of shoes. Danique and Clea were also dressed beautifully; they were the fashion stars. The three sisters had peachy skin with red hair. Their lips were cherry-red and Ffion's eyes were emerald green, Clea and Danique's eyes were sapphire blue. Clea was dressed in a honey coloured tunic with black leggings and azure pumps. Danique was dressed in a hang-y silk, cream top with denim shorts. Her shoes were brown, low woven wedges. Totally different styles.
For Ffion, she had a deep emerald green top that was matched with skinny blue, knee-length denim shorts. Brown peep-toe sandals were easily matched. I had the most gorgeous off-shoulder yellow top with turquoise shorts and sky-blue sandals. We went away, satisfied and now the beach girls have fashion goddesses to help them. Perfecto!
No more Beach Girl-... series to come. This is the last one.
