After about a couple of hours of rifling through racks Chang came upon clothes suitable for her new job. She got an old faded Rolling Stones tank to with the iconic mouth and tongue across the front, it bagged low in the front, so for her modesty she got a small black lace camisole to go underneath to conceal some cleavage. She also got dark navy blue sleeveless top that while was very clingy, it covered her from neck to navel. Sexy without leaving everything hanging out on main street. She also got a pair of tight high-waisted black jeans and a skort. She had grabbed it thinking it was just a cute pleated skirt that looked to be a good length and was pleasantly surprised to find it had a pair of shorts hidden underneath. It was comfy, had a cute twirl when she spun, and was a perfect length for work without being slutty.
Chang especially felt successful when it rang all up at under 20 dollars.
'Succesful bargain hunting! I'm gonna get something nummy to munch on to celebrate before work.'
She looked at the time and saw she had about 3 hours before work, and so sauntered to a little cafe to get a sanwich and a café latte.
Chang leisurely took her time, effectively killing almost another hour. She saw that it was still early but with nothing else to do, Chang decided to head to work early and help out with anything if possible.
Chang took only about a half hour to reach La Vie En Rose and went to open the door like last time to find it locked.
'No one must be here yet,' she sighed to herself and resigned to wait. After about a half hour Eric, the boss, came out from the parking garage on the other side of the street.
"Well hello there early bird. How can I help you?" Eric was a quiet, polite man, easily approachable with his kind demeanot. He had brown hair and eyes, and a face easily lost in a crowd.
"Thank you for last night, I actually came early as thanks for that to see if I could lend an extra hand with set-up." Chang liked him and decided to use her situation to butter him up just a little more.
"How thoughtful, you're definitely a keeper! I'm sure there's something I could have you help me with! Actually I've been working on a few new specialty cocktails for our bar, would you care to try them?"
At the mention of alcohol though, Chang felt almost queasy, this morning was punishment enough! She didn't want to turn him down, but definitely couldn't stomach more liquor. Her eyes grew wide as she debated internally.
Eric saw her look of horror and consternation and chuckled a little, it was nice to work with someone so animated.
"You know what I actually remembered the walk-in1 needs a good deep-clean. think you can handle that?"
"Yes, sir" 'Easy-peasy' she thought, grateful for the switch.
Chang went to town cleaning the inside of the walk-in wiping down shelves, checking all the products, and wiping down the walls. Chang was enjoying herself, immersing herself into scrubbing the walls, and didn't notice someone was standing just inside the entrance watching her.
When she straightened up, struggling to lift a giant tub of cheese, she noticed Brandy standing there, having been watching as she was bent over. Chang swayed holding the tub and almost lost hold of it, Brandy rushed forward though and helped her put it back on the shelf.
"Never fear the calvary is here!" Brandy cried out fearlessly helping Chang put everything back on the shelves, now that they were clean. They chatted a little, Brandy more so, as they sorted it back in place as soon as they did Eric poked his head in and whistled.
"Looks great in here, thanks a million! Are you gonna change before work, we're getting ready to open the front house.." Eric was almost hesitant to mention the attire, they had an open dress code, sans showing up nude, he wardrobe would stick out like a sore thumb later on.
"Oh I didn't realize it was so late already, I have a change of clothes in the bag I brought with me!"
"Ok then, well I'll see you ladies out there." Eric left to continue on after checking the walk-in.
Chang then thought of the clothes Brandy lent her yesterday, and turned to Brandy.
"Thank you for lending me those clothes yesterday, I need to wash them still, I will return them to you tomorrow!"
Brandy laughed and waved her hand dismissively. "No worries, keep em if you want they looked much better on you, much.." She added the last but after a pause in a darker voice. Her eyes slid oily up Chang for a second as she said that. "I'll see you out there." With a wink and a snap of her finger, she walked out leaving Chang feeling a little uncomfortable and worried, especially after Justin's warning to her last night. She slapped her cheeks, and put on her game face,
'It's showtime!'
