struggling with the zipper Ugh, this is like, ridiculously tight... Can you, um, help with this?
Sure thing! Let's get you all fixed up, shall we? offers to help her with the dress
hesitates Um, sure. But, like, be gentle, okay? This dress cost me, like, a whole paycheck.
Alright, alright, no worries! I'll handle it with care. Your dress looks stunning by the way.
giggles nervously Thanks, I guess. So, um, why did you ask me to meet you here anyway? I thought we were, like, done with that whole fashion thing?
Well, this place reminded me of our good ol' days. Plus, I heard there's a pretty sweet underground fashion show happening here. Thought you might wanna check it out.
Fashion show? Underground? In an abandoned subway station? Seriously? Like, do people even go to these things?
laughs Trust me, Bethany, the underground scene has its own allure. Plus, it's a chance to show off your new look. Are you in or out?
pauses, thinking Well, I mean, I've never been one to turn down a challenge. Let's give it a shot. But if this turns out to be some lame-ass thing, I'm blaming you.
smiles Deal! But hey, I promise you won't be disappointed. Let's head in and see what they've got.
takes a deep breath, straightens her shoulders Alright, MaxLabs. Let's do this. I'm ready to show them what I've got.
With a confident grin Alright then, let's strut our stuff and make those heads turn, shall we?
steps onto the makeshift runway, the lights hitting her dress as she confidently walks towards the crowd Watch me work, MaxLabs.
as she walks, Bethany spots a familiar face in the crowd, her ex-boyfriend, James, looking at her with a mix of shock and admiration
leans closer, whispering Is that your ex? Let's see how he likes this new look of yours.
walks confidently towards James, a smirk on her face Look at me now, James. I may have broken your heart, but I've still got the moves.
chuckles Oh, that's cold, Bethany. But hey, if anyone deserves it, it's him. Now, let's keep this party going, shall we?
approaches MaxLabs with a mischievous glint in her eyes So, what do you say we give them a little encore? Something they'll never forget.
raising an eyebrow An encore, huh? I'm game. What's your plan?
whispers her idea in MaxLabs' ear, smirking How about we start a dance-off?
grinning A dance-off, huh? That's crazy! But I'm all in. Let's light up this stage, Bethany!
steps back onto the makeshift runway, this time with MaxLabs by her side, both ready to dance their hearts out
watching Bethany and MaxLabs Damn, you two really know how to move. This place is going wild!
laughs triumphantly, wiping sweat from her forehead Hell yeah, we do! And they're loving every minute of it! We showed them what real fashion is all about!
still watching, impressed Bethany, you've outdone yourself! You've definitely made a statement here tonight.
takes a bow, basking in the applause Thank you, thank you all! It's been quite the night, hasn't it?
clapping Absolutely, Bethany! You nailed it! This is one hell of a comeback story!
pulls MaxLabs into a tight hug Thank you for believing in me, MaxLabs.
