[After several days…]
A week and a few days had passed since then. We got our invitation to the party, the secret letter from Chief Zeus, and Agent Helios received the schedule of his private meeting with him. Finally, we were on our way to little Tiffany Young's masquerade birthday party. It was dusk at that time since the birthday celebrant wanted it that way.
For my dress, I chose a gradient pastel to midnight blue one that had tiny sparkly thingy on it, making it appear like stars in the evening sky which turned out to be real diamonds—and here I thought they were simple glitters. It had tiny but intricate flower embroideries on the chest, shoulders straps, and back, with the diamonds as their center. The fabric was smooth and flowy, very comfortable to wear—especially the skirt. It wasn't tight, so I could still raise my leg and kick someone in case something unfortunate happened.
