The two friends settled into Maureen's car, ready for a day out. Instead of heading straight for their shopping list, Maureen suggested a detour to the salon for a quick hair touch-up.
Lilian, still waking up and feeling a bit groggy, nodded in agreement. She kept glancing at her phone, hoping for a call from Allen, but there was nothing—not yet, anyway.
Although she was momentarily distracted by her anticipation, she found comfort in Maureen's company. They would make the most of their time together until Allen reached out.
To Lilian's surprise, the hairstylist took her look to the next level, opting for a full styling rather than a simple touch-up. When she caught her reflection in the mirror, she couldn't help but smile.
The curls at the tips of her hair added a playful and enchanting touch, transforming her look entirely. She had always appreciated sleek, smooth edges, but this new style made her feel like a princess, radiating beauty and charm.
