"Taz, let's talk, okay?" Director Sarian addressed Lola as soon as they stepped out. He looked at her face, opened and closed his mouth, then felt his head throb slightly.
Right now, Lola looked stranger than usual. It was why he couldn't blame others because they were not lying.
"I usually don't complain about the looks you go with," he said, "but this…"
"Director, what about today's look?" she blinked, touching the small ribbon on her side. "Is it too much?"
"Well… just a bit."
"Was it the ribbon?"
Director Sarian's breath hitched. "The ribbon?" he repeated, eyes moving to the little accessory in her hair. "You think it's the ribbon?"
If anything, the ribbon was the only decent part of this entire look.
"Taz," he huffed helplessly, "although I don't appreciate Manager Kang's words, he made quite a point. Slater is joining us today, in case you aren't aware. And from what I heard, it's not just a rumor that he snaps at anything he deems ugly."
