It was a chilly winter morning and I was on my way to Starbucks. It was a daily thing to get coffee and meet up with Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi.<p>
As I passed by some stores, I looked up at a billboard. The billboard was advertising the Annual Taisho winter fashion show/ball in Tokyo. <p>
A few minutes later I opened the door to Starbucks and found Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi waving at me. I quickly ordered a mocha frappinchino(sp?) and went over to sit with them.<p>
“Kagome, have you heard te news?” Eri asked me. I sighed. “ Did Paris Hilton get arrested for rape?” I guessed. They all stared at me.
My friends were the experts on what went on in the celebrity world. I'm pretty sure they knew about the updates before even the paparazzi. I was shocked when I found out there college classes weren't on photography or journalism for the Hollywood newspaper.
It had seem like they had all just recovered from the shock of my answer.
“No silly,” Yuka coughed. “This year there having try outs for the Annual Taisho winter fashion show!” Yuka raised her voice in excitement and then let out a shrill squeal of delight.
“Their main model left for America because her grandmother died and she had to attend the funeral. They said she'd be gone for a month, and the fashion show is in two weeks.” Ayumi filled me in on.
“And…” Eri pulled out her little calendar from her purse. “The tryouts are this Friday. If we take a train tomorrow at noon we'll be there by 3:00 p.m. and then….”
The cashier came over to the table and gave me my frappinchino and asked me how my morning was going. After that she quickly left to get back to making more coffee for other customers.
“KAGOME!” I heard Yuka yell at me.

”Hmmm?” I managed quite bored and uninterested in the whole fashion show topic. Its not like she had any odds of ever winning, and she seriously doubted that Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi were the ones Taisho company was in desperate need of.
“We were wondering if you'd come along when we go to try out.” I sent Yuka a sharp look.

”You don't actually think you could win! I mean no offense but theres thousands of people trying out and the odds aren't likely.” I turned my head to look at the window.
“So we still wanna go! It'll be fun.” Eri said. She had an irritated look on her face.
“But you don't have to come or try out. We know that with your mangled hair and dry looks that they wouldn't even let you in!” Yuka spit at me.
I could feel my blood get boil. HOW DARE SHE?! Even though I knew I was playing right into there trap, I readily went in.
“Alright! All prove to you guys and to the rest of the world entering that: I WILL WIN.” I got up and picked up my empty star bucks cup. “See you tomorrow at the train station at noon.” I smiled at them and left. They just grinned back.
As I walked into class the next day a bunch of people were staring at me when I entered. A girl by the name of Keiko Iganaka walked right up to me.
“Hey, Higurashi, I heard you going to be the next top model.” The whole class burst into laughter. Even Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi were laughing.
I knew it was wrong to make that bet. Id be the laughing stock of practically the whole town of Kyoto. I mean I'm not famous but I'm pretty well known in Kyoto. But I had already decided that I would go, I'd be an even bigger laughing stock if I were to chicken out.
I went to class. I saw several people whispering and just by reading their lips I knew, they were talking about me. By noon their wasn't a single person who didn't know I was entering the Taisho fashion show. I really planned on killing Yuka, Eri, Ayumi and their big gossip mouths, when we got to Tokyo.
They walked up to me. And smiled like they were the oh-so-innocent by standers. I gave them my meanest look I could, which really didn't look mean at all.
“Train leaves at 1:00p.m” Yuka slipped me a train ticket. “We thought that should make up for it.” Boy, were they wrong.
I just took the ticket, it was one less problem anyway. And left for home.
I waited quietly by the train station entrance for my friends. They arrived at 12:57p.m. Typical them to make it barely. We almost had to run after the train it was about to start moving when we got on.
On the way there I took out my laptop and got on MSN, and searched through my contact list.

I clicked on my brothers name:
*Kagogurl* Says: Hey, Sota tell mom we'll be there at 3:00
_total_genius_higurashi_ Says: K
_total_genius_higurashi_ signed off.
Koga tried instant message me but I wasn't in the mood for Koga's stupid nonsense. I was sure Id see enough of him when I got home. After all in Koga's eyes, as Kagome's best friend, when she came home…you partied.
And sure enough, my phone started buzzing and I had just received a text from Koga.
'Par-t @ club myth 2nite @ 11:00pm. Come.'
Koga was the party hardy man, without parties his life didn't exist. I sighed and set my phone down. It was going to be a long day. I took out my book called “Just Listen” by Sarah Dessen and read the rest of the way home.
