Abbie's and Alex's first stop was The Pink Ribbon, a store famous for its specialized cakes. In the past, she could only stare through the window of the shop and look at the cakes that they had for sale. Although she could buy a few slices, it was still way too expensive for a university student like her who had limited funds.
When Abbie became a beta tester, she received funds from the game company. Five thousand dollars may not be a big deal for rich people, but for a university student that came from a middle-class family, it was a lot of money.
'Lily wanted a chocolate cake,' Abbie thought as she gazed at the many cakes for display. 'I wonder which one of them is the best?'
Since her little sister wanted a cake, Abbie wouldn't be stingy. She would buy a whole cake just for her! Actually she was planning on buying two, but her mother was a very thrifty person. She was afraid that Amelia would give her a good nagging if she were to act like a second generation nouveau rich.
