While Adam and Flora were discussing Gogo, "Miss Gigantic Juggs" herself was meeting the younger girl's mother and aunt...if by meeting, one means staring.
To begin with, Gina and Heather were black. There were, of course, no black people in Mastonesia, and while Gogo had seen many black people since her arrival in the states, she'd had yet to interact with them in any social context. More signficantly, they were in their forties. In of itself, this was no novelty; Gogo had meant many women in the forties. But they were all dowdy and...old. Gina and Heather, however, were lovely and stylish.
But the most startling thing about them, the thing that was the cause of her gape-mouthed awe, was the fact that they were twins. Intellectually, Gogo had known identical twins existed, and Adam had told her that was what Gina and Heather were. However, it was a whole thing entirely to presented with that fact, to see two women who looked completely identical, down to their hairstyles. Thankfully one wore red and the other blue (Gina and Heather, respectively, although Gogo didn't know that yet), otherwise Gogo doubted she'd ever be able to tell them apart.
Normally, Heather and Gina would've been amused at Gogo's reaction to them, but they themselves were too busy gaping at her own astonishing twins to notice it. There was a brief, awkward silence, as Gogo stared at the twins while they stared at her chest.
And then then the twins simultaneously managed to gasp out, "Are...are those real?"
There was a brief pause, while Gogo processed this, followed by "Uh, yes. Yes they are, ma'am...uh ma'ams."
Another pause, as the unintended pun sank in...and then all three women broke out laughing.
