Just fine.

Surprisingly, Zoey encountered not a single other car on the way back to the house. She knew this side of the island was more sparsely populated, but it was a rarity to encounter so few people on the road.

Zoey arrived back at the house, and took in a deep breath as she grabbed the grocery bag. In a perfect world, she hoped to dodge the humiliation of being seen like this by her mom, and enduring the humiliating questions and teasing that would follow. Zoey crept up to the back door, and sneaked her way into the house, grimacing a bit at the slight noise the screen door made as it creaked closed behind her.

Zoey saw that nobody was inside the kitchen, and tiptoed her way inside. She opened the fridge, and began putting away the eggs, milk, and cheese. She might have been embarrassed, but Zoey was not going to just leave cold food items laying around, even at the cost of her dignity. She managed to put the items away, and was extremely startled when she heard a voice behind her.

"Care to explain why you're naked?" Zoey's mom asked. Zoey turned around in a panic to find her mom staring her down with an amused grin, and raised eyebrow.

"M-Mom!! D-Don't look!" Zoey stammered, scrambling to try and cover herself. Her face began burning a bright red.

"Why shouldn't I? You seemed pretty unashamed putting away the groceries. And, you didnt even answer my question. What happened??" She asked, narrowing her eyebrows.

"I... I just had a hard day at work! Someone stole my clothes while I was showering, so i had to steal a towel from the lost and found so i wouldn't go home naked! But i spilled milk all over it at the grocery store, so they took it away from me!" Zoey explained, flushing red.

Zoey's mom's expression seemed to relax a bit, offering a sincere smile in her direction. "Well, I'm sorry you had a hard day at work sweetheart. How about you and I make some cupcakes? I have some spare mix in the pantry that I have been needing to get rid of anyways..."

Zoey blushed, but nodded her head. Even in this embarrassing predicament, she could never say no to cupcakes. "J-Just let me get dressed first..." Zoey managed to say, before walking past her mom towards the stairs. Her mom suppressed a laugh at Zoey's expense, grinning ear to ear as she scrambled to finally get dressed again.
