At nine o'clock in the evening, Lina was on her way to Sara's house. As soon as she arrived, she found Sara busy getting ready, already dressed for the occasion. Lina looked at her in clear astonishment and asked:
"Sarah, are these really the clothes you're going to wear to the party?"
Sara glanced at herself calmly and replied,
"Yes. Why not?"
Lina burst out laughing, which confused Sara. In response, Sara carefully examined Lina's appearance. She was wearing a bold outfit that revealed the contours of her body, her hair styled neatly, and her face adorned with makeup. She looked completely different from what Sara was used to.
Sara frowned and said disapprovingly,
"Why are you dressed like this? It's inappropriate. We'll be around people, and you're almost half-naked!"
Lina interrupted her confidently,
"This is party attire, Sara. Don't exaggerate. You're the one who needs to change. What you're wearing is only suitable for staying at home. Let me pick something appropriate for you."
Sara replied coldly,
"I don't have anything special… I'll wear what I think suits me."
Lina shook her head in disapproval and insisted,
"No, you will wear something suitable. I brought a dress with me that will look perfect on you. I'll fix your hair and makeup too, and I'll even choose your shoes."
At first, Sara refused, but Lina's persistence and persuasive nature eventually made her give in.
After changing into the dress, Lina stood there in amazement, staring at her, and said admiringly,
"Wow… you look stunning! Your beauty was hidden behind those clothes!"
Sara remained silent, but a new feeling began to grow within her. Lina took her hand and started adjusting her look, while Sara admired herself, feeling a kind of confidence she had never experienced before, her femininity now more visible in a way that was new to her.
Once Lina finished, she said excitedly,
"Come on, we're late!"
She didn't give Sara time to think. They quickly left together, and at the door, Sara was surprised to find a car waiting for them. Without asking any questions, she got in with Lina. The driver was a stranger she didn't recognize, but he drove them straight to the party.
And that was when the shock began.
Sara found herself in an atmosphere she had never seen before, neither in reality nor even in her imagination. Loud music, colorful lights, men and women dancing, and a wild ambiance similar only to what she had seen in movies.
One of Lina's friends warmly greeted them, interrupting her astonishment entirely. that? It's inappropriate. We'll be around people, and you're almost half-naked!"
"Welcome to my birthday party! I'm so happy you're here, Sara and Lina!"
The celebration began with a short speech from the host, thanking the guests, and soon the night was filled with dancing, laughter, and conversations.
After a while, Sara found herself being offered drinks she was not used to. She hesitated at first, but under the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, she gave in and drank, even though it went against the values she had been raised with.
Moments later, she began to feel slightly dizzy. At that time, one of her classmates approached her, spoke gently, and led her away from the crowd to a quieter place.
He confessed his admiration for her, and Sara, disoriented by the effects of the drink, did not resist much. He held her hand, placed his arm around her waist, and began dancing with her. As the moment intensified, they exchanged kisses while she was not fully aware of what was happening.
Meanwhile, Lina and her friends watched from a distance, laughing.
The hours passed quickly until six in the morning, and the party began to come to an end. Sara looked completely exhausted, barely able to keep her eyes open. They helped her back to the car that had brought them and took her home.
But inside her, the chaos was far greater.
She didn't know who the driver was, nor why she felt she had lost control of herself, nor how she had drifted into moments that had never been part of her world.
So many questions began to clash within her mind…
And all the answers are yet to come…
In the chapters ahead.
