Explanation

Both sisters enter the admissions office. Lauren immediately heads for the counter, eager to quickly take care of her admission and the room's logistics, but Claire stops her.

-Hold on a second.

-What? - Lauren questions.

-Was the talk we just had in the car of no use?

-What do you mean? - Lauren asks a bit nervous, knowing that they have just been talking about her naked "adventures". That gets her embarrassed and nervous.

-I mean this, Lauren! - she lifts her right hand, showing Lauren's sneakers that she had left behind - Why the hell are you barefoot? - the older sister asks with a mix of worry, mocking and teasing.

Lauren opens her mouth to respond, but no sound comes out.

-Well? Hey! - Claire waves her hand Infront of her younger sister's face - Already stripping and preparing for a naked streak?

Those words almost make Lauren squirm - Shhhh! - she tries to shush her sister. With her face quite red, she looks around, only seeing the young woman at the counter. They cross eyes and Lauren, just imagining that this stranger might have heard her sister, feels like she is completely naked under the gaze of the counter woman - Please, quiet down Claire!

Claire notices the other woman and speaks a bit lower - You are worried she might hear us?! By the looks of it, she will see you completely naked in less than an hour hahaha!

-Claire... - Lauren blushes.

-What? Am I crazy in assuming that?

-Ye...

-We just spend God knows how much time talking about your previous "accidents" and you told me you didn't do any of it on purpose and that you have no intention of doing anything of that here. Less than 5 minutes later, you are already shoeless! - Claire states her thoughts.

-It was an accident! I swear! - Lauren strongly tries to appeal to convince her older sister.

-You stepped out of the car and walked into a building. Where was the possibility for an accident in such a short walk hahaha?

-I don't know! This is always happening!

-Ok... let's assume you are telling me the truth.

-I am!

-Shush! Let's assume that. Why didn't you put the sneakers back on? Or at least picked them up? These are good ones - Claire asks while checking out the footwear.

-I... M... I... We had just been talking about my past unlucky moments a...

-Correction! Your past purposeful strips and naked streaks - Claire mocks - Continue.

Lauren blushes and looks to the counter again to see if the woman had heard any of that. They cross eyes again and Lauren, red faced, turns back to her sister - Just stop saying those things, Claire! I think she can hear you!

-Just continue your "plausible explanation", Streaker.

-Please, stop calling me that! - Lauren pleads blushing red before taking a deep breath to calm down - We had just talked about my - she lowers her tone - naked streaks. And when I lost my sneakers I just started panicking and imagining I would be losing the rest of my outfit.

-So... your explanation is that you managed to get out of your shoes "accidentally" without noticing. But then you noticed. And then you didn't pick them up because you were afraid of loosing more clothes. You left clothes behind because you didn't want to be naked - she says while mimicking doing math counts in her head - Sounds like a good plan to me! - Claire says in a mocking tone.

-It's true! - Lauren says, very frustrated.

-I'm sure... Just put these on, Streaker hahaha - she says, handing Lauren the sneakers.

-Don't call me that - Lauren says, once again frustrated for loosing so much time explaining and still not being able to convince her sister.

Lauren finishes putting the sneakers back on and stands up.

-Now, let's take care of your admission, lil sis. Just try not to loose any clothes in the 20 steps to the counter hahaha.

Lauren blushes.
