Chapter 140: Halloween II
Chapter 138
I was still standing in front of Pippa, who tilted her head at my last comment, a soft laugh escaping her lips.
"You really think this looks cute?" she asked, gesturing to her chaotic mix of colors.
"I mean, yeah," I replied, still watching her. "It shouldn't work—but somehow, it does. You look like a Lisa Frank notebook that came to life."
Pippa blushed and looked away, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"I told her she'd look adorable," Cara said. "I called her Enid Sinclair—Wednesday's best friend."
"From the Addams Family?" I asked, intrigued.
Lauren jumped in. "Yep. Cara's obsessed with that movie. She even wrote a novel about Wednesday's teenage years. I'm dressed as Bianca Barclay—her rival."
"Lauren!" Cara exclaimed, clearly embarrassed.
"What? You already told him the name you gave to Pip's character," Lauren replied with a shrug.
"Yeah, but I was only going to say it was based on an idea I had..." Cara muttered.
"You should let me read it," I offered. "I've got a few connections in TV. If it's good, who knows? Carly, Freddie, and Sam are starring in a new show next week."
