“No,” she told me, her tone softening. “Honestly, I wanted to hang out with you, because I wanted to talk. I needed someone to talk to and I need to reassure myself that it’s all in

head.”

She bit her lower lip and stared at her hands.

“Not here,” she finally said after a brief silence. “Let’s just enjoy the evening first. We can talk when we grab dinner.”

I stare at her for a moment longer before relenting. If she didn’t want to talk right now, then we weren’t going to talk right now. She wanted to take her mind off things and ease her discomfort.

30 minutes later, we arrived in the busy city. Leroy parked the car in front of one of the department stores. He didn’t get out with us as I expected him to, but the guards in the car behind us did get out after they parked. They were wearing casual clothing, but their weapons were clearly hidden beneath their outfits. They were also trying to not make it obvious that they were following us.

I appreciated the effort, but I doubted that mattered to Irene. She was still upset that they were there. “Let’s go into this store,” she said, pointing at one of the high–end boutiques. I’ve only ever walked by this store in the past. Even when my family had money, I never dared walk in here. I wasn’t surprised that this was the first store that Irene wanted to check out though and I wasn’t going to argue with her, so I quickly followed her into the boutique.

“Pick out anything you’d like,” she told me from over her shoulder. “It’s on me.”

“You really don’t have to buy me anything,” I told her, but she was already around the corner and disappeared in a rack of designer clothing.

I sighed and glanced around at all the beautiful outfits and dresses. These were all too fancy for my taste. I slowly made my way around the boutique, wondering what it must be like for Irene who could come here whenever she wanted and buy whatever she wanted. It must be nice to live like that and never worry about money. Being a Landry, she never had to work a day in her life. Everything would always be handed to her.

I walked by the jewelry counter and noticed all the gorgeous designs on display. One in particular caught my eye; it was a necklace with a ruby pendant and a pure cold chain. There were clusters of diamonds around the ruby that made it sparkle under the illuminating light. It was the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen, and I found myself drawn to it.

I reached out to touch the ruby with my fingertips but the black box that held the piece was immediately slammed shut, I managed to pull my fingers away before they were hurt and I looked up at the furious woman that stood before me.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing??” She asked through her teeth.

My heart hammered wildly in my chest.

“I was just looking-”
