“Zinnia, you’re so stunning! If I’d known, I would’ve picked the same outfit too,” Maisie exclaimed. Zinnia, with her makeup done, was sipping her juice while waiting for Maisie.
Lydia kept her makeup simple–just a few quick touches and she was done. With glasses and a side braid, she looked every bit the studious type. To match her student outfit, she carried a book in her hand, completing the scholarly vibe.
After finishing makeup, Maisie turned around and nearly gasped. She wanted to pounce on Zinnia and shower her with kisses. Zinnia, delicate in a gorgeous dress, had her hair all pinned up, revealing her full, beautiful face.
The makeup artist had shaped her brows. Hairpins sparkled in her updo, delicate ear cuffs adorned her ears. She was an ethereal beauty–like a fairy who had stepped down from heaven.
Zinnia had never worn makeup before, but with jus
trying to catch her glow from every angle.

little touch–up, she looked impossible to look away from. Lydia, camera in hand, kept circling her,
As soon as the girls stepped out, Ethan’s eyes lit up. Ethan gasped, “Holy moly, Zinnia! How are we supposed to protect you when you look this gorgeous? Seriously, we’re worried someone might just kidnap you!”
“Tonight, our main job is to protect our little princess,” Ethan said dramatically, drawing his sword and stepping in front of Zinnia. His eyes scanned the crowd, watching for anyone suspicious.
He thought, ‘She is stunning. No way we are letting any creep
snatch her away!‘
“Ethan, you’re such a drama king!” Maisie laughed.
Ethan rémarked, “Maisie and Lydia look amazing too. I’ve never seen Maisie with long hair before–she almost blinded me with how beautiful she is. And that outfit is just perfect for Lydia’s scholarly look–she looks so cultured.”
“Seriously, the clothes you both picked are perfect. I can’t wait to see how awesome our photos turn out. We’re just killing it with these looks.” Ethan made sure to compliment everyone without missing a beat.
“Alright, enough of the compliments. We all look amazing. Why not take a photo to remember this moment?” Brian chuckled.
“Come on, everyone! Let’s take a group shot to capture this wonderful day,” Ethan called out.
They stepped out of the shop and set up a camera in front of them.
Ethan wore a guard’s uniform that was tight at the waist, with a sword hanging at his side. His strong eyebrows and confident smile showed his youthful energy–like a young hero.
Brian picked out a lawyer suit. Tall and good–looking, with nice features, he was standing there relaxed, with a casual smile. He looked sharp without trying too hard.
Maisie wore a red rope that fit her slim waist and tall frame perfectly. She looked like she was born to wear it. Her short hair was neatly tucked under a fancy updo wig, decorated with delicate hairpins, giving her a refined and neat look.
In her hand, she held a wooden flute, adding a classic touch to her style. Passersby couldn’t help but glance at the five good–looking young praising their youthful energy.
“Here we go. Smile!” Ethan set the timer and ran/back. The five of them smiled brightly and happily, their joy frozen in the photo. It was a beautiful memory they’d keep forever.
“Let’s get these photos printed–one for each of us!” Maisie said, pulling Zinnia and Lydia into the shot with her phone while calling the boys.
“We still have the carousel and Ferris wheel to ride. After that, we can watch the show and call it a day,” Maisie cheerfully said after taking a bunch of photos. The group got ready to enjoy the rest of the fun.

When they reached the carousel, all the spots were full, so they had to wait a few minutes. While waiting, they took more photos in front of the enfortit
ride.
After riding the Ferris wheel, the last ride of the day, the group headed to the performance area.
The staff had set up a big open space just for the show, but when they arrived, it was already full of people watching.
“Over here, guys. We got VIP tickets. We can watch from the top deck,” Ethan called out happily, waving everyone forward.
“Wow, this is amazing!” the group said as they reached the top deck and found the best spot, just as the artist stepped onto the stage.
The crowd watched, breathless and amazed.
Just as they were about to leave after the show, they heard music drifting over. The group paused, looked at each other, then turned toward the music together.
They then saw a stage decorated with many

Ethan tapped the person in front and asked, “Hey, what’s going on?”
That guy explained, “They’re holding a music contest, and the prize is the Opaline Lamp. It took a whole year to make the lamp, and they’re giving it to the winner, who gets to keep it.”
Ethan pointed at the lamp above. The patterns were so detailed, and the craftsmanship was amazing.
Zinnia’s eyes shined as she looked at it. “Wow, it’s so beautiful!” she said excitedly.
