"What's wrong with overgrown adult clothes," Sammy said with a smile. "You two could go as the incredible shrinking women."
Claudia turned to Sammy with a sour look on her face. "No one likes a smart ass Sammy," she said before smirking.
The girls began to giggle before brainstorming ideas. Eventually the group decided on an old Snow White costume for Karen while Claudia could wear the Tinkerbell costume she had purchased for the college party they were considering going to.
Tricia pulled out a Harley Quinn costume for Samantha and a cat costume for Mika, Katie and Mary already had a Witch and Nurse costume for themselves. The Snow White costume they gave to Karen fit her well and Claudia's Tinkerbell outfit now fit the young blonde girl like a glove after Katie adjusted it for her age. The girls happily talked now and tried to engage Karen in conversation. Karen was still shy nut was slowly beginning to come out of her shell. The group agreed they liked this version of Ms. Morgan and were looking forward to a night of trick or treating.
Tricia then found the phone ringing and when she answered, she was met with a minor speed bump in the plan which she mentioned to Katie who then relayed the news. "Well, my moms coming, Guess adding a nugget of a smaller shape was just too much to leave alone with someone who'd likely book it to a college party at the slightest sight of a sleepy set of shoujo."
"Even if the set of shoujo in question can be boosted through puberty for the aforementioned college party." Mika moaned.
"Hello, Mary, Katie are you in here?"
The girls turned to see Kellie standing in the doorway. "Come on in mom," Mary Elise said.
Kellie entered the house and began to look around. Smiling she looked at the five ten year olds and their two seven year old companions. "Hello girls hope your ready to go trick or treating." The group enthusiastically responded with cheers as they hustled towards the door.
"Is my mom coming along, Ms. O'toole?" Samantha asked.
"She's right behind me Sammy," Kellie said. "She picked up Jake on the way over. She mentioned that the two of you were planning on meeting up later on to go trick or treating. Now let's start trick or treating we don't want all the houses to run out of the really good candy."
The girls squealed with delight as they ran outside into the brisk October night. Katie smiled, their evening was about to begin.
