Marzena Choi stepped onto the sidewalk; there was the sound of high heels clicking against pavement to herald her arrival in the Garden District. The celebrity was followed by two suited men, her guards for the day. She generally liked to pretend that they weren’t there, but today it was something of a comfort to know that she was not completely alone. The celebrity had dressed in a classic trench coat, a pair of nude heels, and dark glasses. Her dark tresses were styled into long waves, her makeup was pristine and her signature red lipstick completed her look. She smiled and nodded to a few passersby, looking very much like a happy woman, but few knew the torrent of emotions she had experienced during the past few days.
At least she looked pulled together on the outside.
She had come to the Garden District for a bit of shopping, on a good day, it was merely a favorite pastime. However, on a bad day, shopping was a cure-all, at least temporarily. And today, she felt that some retail therapy was definitely in order. Marzena would forget about her troubles for now, there would be plenty of time to dwell on them later. For now, she would simply enjoy the serene sounds of the fountains, taking in the lovely city sights, and spending a few credits. She ducked into the first boutique she spotted, and after about fifteen minutes, she had a few bags dangling from her arm.
Of course, she wasn't going to stop there...
Another shop, another few things purchased – by the end she could have had a completely new wardrobe. Now feeling somewhat satisfied, she started to walk down towards the art galleries. She turned into a small gallery space, her dark eyes taking in some of the artist’s sculpture work. Marzena removed her sunglasses to get a better look, also revealing that her eyes were a bit tired and sad... but she hoped that no one would notice.
