Friendship on the Rocks: A Makeup Misadventure
In a world where late-night coding sessions meet raucous ‘guys’ weekends’, a beauty battle royale ensues. After a drunken night leads to a makeup massacre, the protagonist demands compensation for her ruined cosmetics. All but one friend agree to pay up. Enter Kole, the defiant friend who not only refuses to pay, but also questions the value of her makeup. His belated apology and payment, however, do not sit well with our heroine, leading to a ban from her home and a friendship feud. As the drama unfolds, accusations fly, blame is assigned, and pleas for peace are made. But with friendships hanging in the balance, the question remains: is she being too harsh, or is she simply standing her ground? The internet weighs in on this beauty blunder…
