Albert squinted and looked over, a bit unsure. He was used to Bonnie's usually casual, neutral style, so seeing her dressed up like this was almost unrecognizable.
Seeing Albert hesitate, Cynthia quickly linked her arm through his and rushed over. After sizing Bonnie up several times, she exclaimed in complete astonishment,
"Darling, don't tell me you're Bonnie?"
Bonnie couldn't help but roll her eyes dramatically. Cynthia, in her excitement, stammered in disbelief,
"My God! Bonnie, you look so beautiful! You're like a heavenly beauty—"
After all these years of being friends, Cynthia had never realized Bonnie had such an amazing, feminine side. She just stood there, mouth agape, eyes wide open, staring at her without blinking.
Albert bent down to kiss Cynthia on her soft lips and, in a low voice, reminded her,
"Darling, I think it's time we head inside."
