31. Party

And just like that the day of the party drew nearer until finally, it was the day of the party.

The school was granted off till 6 p.m so that everyone could have enough time to prepare themselves to the best of their capabilities.

While discussing, the group had told what they wanted to dress as so they had made their own after renting a tailoring machine and buying the fabrics they wanted.

Now when the time came to wear what they made, they planned to meet up and dress together.

They met up at Shi Qiaolian's house to dress up.

The house was a moderate middle class one with three bedrooms, a combined washroom and a kitchen with attached living room.

The girls occupied Shi Qiaolian's room while the boys occupied a guest room.

...

''Orchid, come here.'' Shi Qiaolian said waving the makeup brush towards Li Zhilan after completing Mu Tan's make over.

''No. No, no'' Li Zhilan said backing away while shaking her head.

''Go on Orchid.'' Mu Tan who was behind Li Zhilan pushed her forward towards Shi Qiaolian and then the two of them trapped Li Zhilan down on the chair before starting the session.

''No please don't. It's too tiresome sitting at the same spot for too long.'' Li Zhilan said as she pleaded to the two girls who really didn't care. Li Zhilan had seen that Shi Qiaolian had taken 30 minutes to complete Mu Tan's makeup so she really didn't want to do it.

''Shut up. It will be done in a moment.'' Shi Qiaolian said in a stern voice. She had stayed dressed and ready just so she could make over her two friends. At first she thought it would be difficult to convince Mu Tan to have her makeup done but who would have thought that the normally outgoing Orchid was the one who had problem with it. And it wasn't just any problem, it was 'sitting still' problem.

''Okay. You can do it but make it quick and light.'' Li Zhilan finally compromised and so with her frequent nagging, the make over was done in 10 minutes.

After a whole three hours, the girls left the room to find the boys waiting in the living room.

The five of them were dressed differently. Shi Qiaolian was dressed as Nezuko from demon slayer while Su Zhaohui as Luffy from one piece. Mu Tan as Myne from ascendance of a bookworm with Hao Zhen as Todoroki from My hero academia and finally Li Zhilan as Ariel from the little mermaid. Yes little mermaid's Ariel.

While the whole school was discussing about dressing as the characters of animes and movies as well as Greek mythologies, Li Zhilan chose to dress as a fairy tail princess.

And her reason was, ''I don't have to dance if I don't have a partner.''

So that was how a princess went with a group of anime characters to the party.
