Karen sailed-through high-school, loving maths & business-studies with the talent of playing the keyboard. Kylie too was accomplished though her musical-instrument was the guitar. Stephen jokingly suggested they should form a band; Karen & Kylie smiled at each other, they both looked good & having graduated high-school their first-priority was that all-important Prom Dress, the band had to go on-hold.

The Prom Dress comes as a ‘package’ & thanks to Stephens good-nature & credit-card they would, as they say, ‘charge it‘.

Having spent hours in the mall they whittled their choice down to a mere 8-frocks; in need of a coffee-break they debated final-selection & proceeded to find suitable lingerie, shoes & Hayley Alexander shoulder-bag. Kylie confided in Karen [her] mom Helen would freak as her outfit was almost UK£300 [US$600] & she did not want to take advantage of their friendship. Karen mobed Stephen; even without seeing the eyelash-fluttering & quivering-lip he readily agreed to paying for both outfits. ‘Love you daddy, thank you‘
