#45 - Challenge Week 3 – Radiate confidence

Lily steps into the café, feeling… different. Not in a who-even-am-I way, but in a yes, I did this, and I look good way. She’s actually wearing her new outfit—wide-leg trousers, a chic trench coat, and the bright green sweater. Bold. Stylish. A little bit cooler.

Her sister Lisa, already seated, raises an eyebrow as Lily approaches. She sets down her coffee and studies her sister.

“Okay… what’s going on?” Lisa asks, squinting. “Did you get a promotion? Win the lottery? Have a midlife crisis?”

Lily smirks, draping her coat over the chair. “I went shopping.”

Lisa leans in. “No. You went shopping? Voluntarily?”

Lily orders a tea, trying to play it cool. “I had a plan.”

Lisa narrows her eyes. “It’s not just the clothes. You’re—wait.” She points. “You radiate confidence?”

Lily laughs. “Maybe.”

Lisa grins. “Well, it looks good on you.”

Lily leans back, smiling. Yeah. She thinks so too.
