Aliee Jung
Luau Outfit
The day went pretty well. Being with her friends really brightened her day to say the least. It was nice to be around Keo and not fight with him. Now she was back at her house getting ready for the luau of death. Not really death...no it might as well be put that way. One she would have to see Noa. Words could not describe the dislike she held for the other girl. It gave her a head ache just thinking about it. She did not like the reason she near hated Noa for, but nonetheless she could not stop those feelings from arising. Not to mention Noa probably has seen her child more and just doesn't even know it. Quickly pushing that thought out of her head, Aliee went through her closet and picked out an outfit to wear.
She had no intention on swimming, so she just found a cool dress for a summers eve to wear. She left her hair alone, liking the way it looked down today. Time to go out there and fake smile at everyone. As she was about to leave her small home, she contemplated on getting a drink. 'Should I?' She shook her head deciding just to get some free alcohol from the luau. Aliee went to her vespa feeling as if each step she took there was something pulling her back. Back to what? Her trusty bottle. There was another reason she didn't want to go tonight. More than likely Kani was going to be there. Now they were good friends, but she always felt a little paranoid. They were keeping such a big secret from the group. Ugh she didn't even want to think about Keo possibly knowing about the whole child thing. That was a bridge she wasn't ready to cross yet.
"I can do this." She mumbled starting up her vespa and taking off down the road. A nice ride always seemed to calm her nerves. It was definitely assisting her this time as well. She got to Mano's place just in time. It was a little after 6:30pm by the time she arrived. She saw the people in the crowd, some natives others sadly haole. The music kept changing and the atmosphere was almost overwhelming. Though she normally enjoyed parties, this one not so much. She worked her way to the bar and flashed her stamp. "Give me your strongest drink please." She smiled. Aliee looked up hearing the sound of Noa talking. She held back a snicker at the thought of the girl singing. She turned her back the stage as her drink arrived. "Thank you."
The bartender did not know just how badly this drink was needed. She quickly downed the alcohol and ordered another glass. This time she was going to save this fruity drink. It was going to get her through a long night. There were two options right now. Leave and make Keo mad that she ditched on a meeting, or suffer through it. She was going to have to suffer. Aliee worked her way through the crowd once the song was over. Aliee walked out to the bonfire and didn't even say two words to Noa as she sat on the ground by the fire. Drink still in hand she took a sip and contemplated on speaking. Nope she wasn't going to. It wasn't worth it. It was best to just ignore the other girls presence and hope the rest of the group came soon. Kani, Keo, or anyone really.
