Career Change

Mama Lai looked me over with a critical eye and decided that the dress I was wearing did not suit me:
"It highlights all of your disadvantages.  It exposes too much of you -- you need a dress that hides more skin."
And as Mama Lai got more into the reasoning of why I should never wear this dress again, she became more and more delighted and carried away.  Then she had a "eureka" moment:
"I should become a fashion consultant.  I would be so good at it.  This looks BAD ON YOU.  This looks HIDEOUS.  That would be the best job ever!"
The Little Prince, overhearing this exchange, cleared his throat and simply said "NO, I don't think so."

Mama Lai smiled and said:
"Then guess what, sir?  You will be my first guinea pig!"
