As he stands before his closet, Christian sifts through his wardrobe, carefully selecting the perfect ensemble for the evening ahead. After much deliberation, he settles on a sleek black suit, accented with a crisp white shirt and a subtle splash of color in the form of a silk pocket square, hoping it will satisfy his mother's standards.
With his attire chosen, Christian moves on to grooming, meticulously styling his hair and attending to every detail until he is satisfied with his reflection in the mirror. Despite the weight of the evening's obligations, there's a sense of pride that comes with presenting himself as the epitome of sophistication and charm.
"Just another night in the social circus," he mutters to himself while buttoning his shirt and adjusting his tie in the mirror.
