"Jesus Christ, Su Bin, I told you I could prepare myself just fine."

"Hey, now, I am the birthday girl. I should be allowed to make you all pretty!"

Kim Su Bin's 23rd birthday finally arrived and it was about time to get ready for the extravagant party for tonight. What Ji Eun didn't expect was the birthday girl to barge into her room right she had finished her quick shower. So the poor towel-clad girl was under Su Bin's demands, who was doing absolutely everything for her, from picking her clothes to fixing her makeup and hair. Ji Eun couldn't couldn't do anything to stop the birthday girl. Just for today, she'll let Su Bin do what she wants. 

"Did you get bored waiting? You're already all dressed up and everything," Ji Eun quipped as she watched her best friend flutter about her bedroom. "Did you change into your outfit right after our brunch?"

Su Bin returned to the shorter girl, dropping clothes and beauty supplies on the empty spot next to her. "I might have, but I'm just excited! I feel like something special is going to happen today," she chimed, a seemingly permanent smile on her face. She held up two dresses to compare for Ji Eun. Making up her mind a second later, she handed her the violet mini dress. "Put this on."

"You know, you say something spontaneous is going to happen every birthday," Ji Eun pointed out as she grabbed the dress. "The only birthday worth noting as special was your 21st when you puked all over the bathroom floor after drinking shit tons of alcohol."

Su Bin reached over and pinched onto her arm, earning a high pitched squeak from the stinging pain from the shorter girl. "Yeah, thanks for bringing that up again, bitch. C'mon Eunnie, get up and put on the dress. You know I'll force it on you myself if you don't move your butt."

"Yeah, yeah. I got it." Ji Eun quickly changed into the chosen dress which hasn't seen the light of day since the day Su Bin bought it for her. She smoothed out the creases of the fabric before fully facing her best friend.

"So hot," she commented with a thumbs up and a wink. Su Bin then gestured over to the desk where most of Ji Eun's beauty products were. "Now to work on your face and hair. Come sit down here, my child."

With a roll of her eyes, Ji Eun obeyed, shuffling over and sitting in the very seat. Her eyelids closed and a heavy breath, she was ready to be to be dolled up to the best of her friend's abilities. "Don't worry about a thing, honey. I'll even put on some jams to keep you entertained!" Ji Eun pricked her ears to the sound of Step by F(x) blasting throughout her room.

Ok, this was going to be a little hard for Ji Eun, the urge to dance inevitable. And sadly, every time she moved was a smack to the arm from Su Bin.

. . . .

"My fucking arm is stinging, douchewad."

"That doesn't matter because you look smoking hot right now. Just look at yourself." Su Bin practically dragged her puppet over to the full body mirror.

Ji Eun gawked at her reflection as she rubbed on her poor arm. It had been months since she dressed up for anything so the effect of all that Su Bin had done for her was a little alarming but in a good way. The dress she wore fit her petite figure, showing off the curves she would usually hide under baggy clothing, and the dark violet color complimented her milky white skin. The make-up was thicker than what Ji Eun was used to, her doe eyes looked fiercer than before with the smooth slicks of eyeliner and hazy eyeshadow and her lips were painted in glossy pink. Her short hair was in soft curls, which framed her baby face perfectly.

Su Bin was right; she did look smoking hot right now.

"Hoo boy, you're going to be breaking hearts tonight!" Su Bin chimed with a pleased smile. "I did a damn great job. Now you look almost as good as me!" Ji Eun shot her a stern glance. "Okay, you do look as good and that is all because of me!~"
