章節 23: Chapter 23: Ricky’s Day

“You must be the only woman in North America who doesn’t like shopping,” said a surprised Ricky. He had planned an afternoon shopping with Laura on a school holiday. He gave her his platinum card and told her to go crazy and buy whatever she wanted. She could pick the spot and he would be happy to come with her and carry her bags.

“This is also the first time I’ve ever dated a woman with so much baggage,” he joked.

“Ha, ha,” Laura responded, “The king of the puns. Did you meet my friend Caitlin? That’s her style of humor.”

“Not really, no,” he said growing serious in tone, “I only have eyes for you, Laura.”

She wanted to hug him right there in front of everyone at the outlet mall. He read her heart where Caitlin, who was becoming more and more of Laura’s frenemy, was concerned.
