A tank top and shorts that are too small.

The clothes that Alicia had produced were a tank top and some shorts. She had outgrown them, but Erica wore smaller sizes than Alicia did. Unfortunately, after they two of them went their separate ways to their first class, and Erica had changed into the outfit in the locker room, she discovered that the clothing was so small, so tight, that she actually had trouble breathing.

That was when Lisa noticed her predicament and decided to help. She laughed when Erica tried to speak. "Go. Away." Sometimes, she wished that she had an ally in gym class that she could depend on to back her up. It was unfair to be confronted 2 on 1 since Lisa and Carrie were both in the same class with her.

"Honestly, the way you are now, you won't be able to perform well in class," Lisa retorted. "With these," she continued, brandishing the nail scissors she'd already used that morning, "we can make the necessary changes."

"Not. Necessary," Erica protested. It was the principle of the matter. Lisa had shown that she enjoyed seeing Erica struggle with public exhibition. Maybe she could convince the gym teacher to let her continue wearing the night gown?

Lisa, however, was not deterred.
