As Christmas approached, all shops, decorated with lanterns and streamers, offered discounts to attract customers.
“Christina, what are you going to buy for Christmas?”
The weather was fine today, and the sun was shining brightly.The winter sun was not dazzling, and it only made people feel warm.
The two women were walking side by side on the shopping street.
Crystal was light-footed and in a good mood.But the other woman was absent-minded.
Christina hesitated and asked, “What did you say?”
Crystal found her weird today.
She glanced at Christina suspiciously and asked, “Christina, who are you texting to on the WhatsApp? Your phone keeps ringing.”
A flash of guilt went across Christina’s beautiful face.She said hurriedly, “Nothing important.It’s just a normal friend.”
She stuffed her phone into her bag, zipped it up, and the WhatsApp prompt faded.
Christina collected herself, looked around the shops, and casually changed the subject.
“The Christmas turkey is actually not delicious.I’m more willing to have roast duck and goose.”
Crystal was puzzled and she said, “I didn’t talk about the turkey.I just said that you behaved strangely these days.”
For example, this morning, Crystal called Christina to go shopping together, and she heard Christina muttering on the other end of the phone that she seemed to have quarreled with someone and was shouting to poison that person.
Christina was embarrassed by her stare.
She quickly changed the subject, “Did you say that you wanted to go to the toy store to buy a gift for Chandler’s son?”
When Chandler’s son was mentioned, Crystal became interested.Not happy, she was furious!
“That little rat.I kindly asked him what he wanted for Christmas.He dared to despise my tastes.”
Christina had fully the same feeling and echoed angrily, “You’re right.How dare these stinky men to ask for so much? What a pain in the ass!”
“What? She said a pain in the ass?”
Crystal was dumbfounded.
Christina, a beauty, even said such vulgar words.
“Who provoked you?”
Crystal was suddenly interested, but Miss Dickens obviously didn’t want to say anything more.
Her beautiful face was flushed with anger.
But she seemed not that angry.
“I remember a big toy store over there”
Crystal had always been considerate and did not continue this topic.
Instead, she took her hand and went in the opposite direction.
This international chain toy store was very big, and there were all kinds of toys for all ages.
The store was decorated like a fairy tale world, colorful and attractive to kids.
On the right was a dazzling display of girls’ toys.
There were lace toys, barbies, and other cute plush toys.
“The boy’s toys are on the left.Please follow me.”
The shop assistant said with a smile and led them there.
The left part was decorated in light blue.
Christina was very surprised to see all kinds of toys, including electric cars, huge Transformers models, and the latest Al electronic pet dog.
“Buy this! I want this!” Christina was excited.
She thought that all boys liked high-tech gadgets.
These electronic dogs didn’t have fur or pee.
Moreover, they were artificial intelligence.
Crystal glanced at this familiar dog.
