If Ari didn't get looks from girls before, he certainly does now. Stella and Ashley are on the receiving end of quite a few jealous looks. They follow him to the most expensive gemstore in the mall. Both of their eyes go wide when he tells them to look around. Stella knows that he has enough gold to buy a small country and kept it running for a while.  She shrugs when Ashley looks to her with a "what do we do?," look. They settle for picking one ring each. Stella, a beautiful emerald with smaller emeralds on the mounting, and Ashley a princess cut saphire that compliments her eyes. "Ari, are you sure you'll be able to pay for these? And what gave you the idea that we needed sparkly objects any?," Stella asks the god, who had taken to watching them from against a wall.
