"No? You got a new top or something?", asked Erika and inspected Sarah thoroughly. "Nope, nothing new as far as I can see."
"But, what about my pants?!", she asked, almost shouting. How can they not see this?
"What about them?", asked Erika and raised an eyebrow. "I've seen you wear them dozens of times. Is really everything alright?"
Sarah nodded hesitantly. "Uh yeah... Just joking."
Erikas gaze stayed upon Sarah while she waited for the real reason. When Sarah said nothing she simply shrugged her shoulders and continued to eat her meal, while gossiping with the rest of the squad.
"What is even happening?", thought Sarah confused. "This has to be some cruel joke... It has to be! It's a prank or something... No way that they can't tell... Right?"
But who would want to prank her and more importantly: Why would everyone agree to do this to her? Some people, sure. This is the price of being popular. But everybody? Somebody would have had to laugh at her seeing her in this disaster of an outfit! But no one did. No one even gave a second glance on her pants as far as Sarah could tell.
"And where are my shorts?", she thought while looking around. "If I can find out who stole my shorts I can find the culprit. It was probably someone like these losers Tiffany and Karyn."
