Zoe smiled and looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was actually a kind of honey blonde, rather than the dark brown she was used to. She also had rather fair skin for someone who grew up on a desert planet. She smiled at Jaina, then looked down at her naked body before looking back at Jaina with a curious expression as if to say "What am I going to wear?"

"Yeah...clothes. I've already got that all planned out."

Jai wrapped her up in a towel, and put her hair up in one also, turban style, and lead her to her room. In Jai's immense closet, she picked out an old pair of shorts, a tight belt, and a baggy shirt.

"Put these on, they'll work till we can get downtown. We're going to go shopping. We'll get you new underwear, shirts, pants, shorts, skirts...the works. We'll get you a haircut and everything. It'll be fun."

Zoe once again did as she was told, actually making the over baggy clothes look presentable. Even though the close were too small for Jaina, they were still seriously baggy on Zoe's undernurished frame

"Hey, by the way...", Jai called out as she searched for more old clothes.

"Are you hungry...would you like to eat before we go downtown?"

Zoer's stomach grumbled in response

Jai smirked and trudged out of the mountain of clothes she dared to call a closet and lead Zoe to the kitchen.

"Ok...good news: I have a kitchen and it has food in it. Bad news: I have no idea how to cook."

"Does PBandJ work for you? I can make that."

Zoe smirked and walked past Jaina into the kitchen. Having been a kitchen slave she was a very good cook. She looked through the contents and started putting things out on the counter, then started cooking, humming as she did so. She looked over and Jaina and made a motion to shoo her out of the kitchen.

Jai quirked an eyebrow.

She can't take a bath worth a frell, but she can cook....that's screwed up.

She sighed and shruged her shoulders, retreating to the living room. Once there, she promptly plopped down in a oversized, plush armchair and groan with her tiredness. It was only 5 P.M., but still....it had been a long afternoon.

"Hey, Kid....try not to mess up any----aw forget it."

About an hour later, Zoe came out of the kitchen with a plate of food. She had chicken in some kind of cream sauce over steamed white rice. In her other hand was a glass of wine. She smiled as she presented them to Jaina.

Jai looked at the little spread Zoe had brought her and sat up in the big armchair as the young girl placed it all on the coffee table before her.

"Wow, Zo' this is......actually, it's disturbing."

Zoe gave her a puzzled look, and jai explained..."It's disturbing because...this, all this wonderful food and wine, was lurking...waiting in secret somewhere in that kitchen, and I had no idea."

She smiled at Zoe, "Thank you. It really looks great...but...you need it more than I do. Go ahead. We'll not the wine, though, that's mine."
