บท 134: Chapter134: GABRIEL

It was almost impossible to keep up with her while keeping an eye out for our would-be follower. Even knowing that the others were around somewhere didn’t give me any relief because I couldn’t leave her care in anyone else’s hands. So, I ended up being dragged from one end of the mall to the next until she was damn near ready to drop.

I didn’t complain, though, and let her do her thing as she seemed to come out of her shell more the longer we were there. I did have a few moments where my heart beat like a twelve-year-old cheerleader’s when she slipped her hand in mine without thinking while prattling on about something or the other.

I don’t know why, and I’m almost certain it has something to do with falling in love, but her reactions were making me almost weepy. It was obvious that she’d never done this before, that even her friend Chantal had more experience with this, a simple thing like shopping, something I thought every young girl her age was an expert at.
