Chapter 84: The Bizarre Encounter
“A storm of weirdness is blowing in!”
I thought that meeting a few quirky characters was part of the deal, but this was beyond my wildest dreams!
“Absolutely not! I’m not wearing that ridiculous outfit!”
“Come on, Aida! You’ll look fabulous! At least it’s not a potato sack!”
Aida, my younger sister, was having a meltdown over what looked like a multicolored marshmallow costume, while our father, Count Bradley Somerset, tried to convince her otherwise.
I stared at the brightly colored fabric draped across the table, thinking that dressing up as a rainbow might not be the best choice for a noble household.
On the chair sat a hat so tall, I half-expected it would topple over and take someone with it!
“Who needs a crown when you can have this!” I declared, waving the hat dramatically.
Surely, this wasn’t what dignified nobles wore… or was it?
Determined to lighten the mood, I tried to put on the sparkly hat, but just as I did—
Poof!
Did I just unleash a shower of confetti?
