“Seriously?” Letty asks, shocked.

“Yes,” I answer. “I went through my closet today just to be prepared, and there is nothing date -worthy there. I didn’t even have a short little black dress.”

To be honest, this is surprising. I remember that one memory I had of Ethan. We went on a date and I had a pretty tight red dress. Not that I was planning to wear it, but it wasn’t in my closet. I had nothing but some pair of jeans and sundresses.

“Worry not, our dear friend, we will help you… In fact, I think we should go shopping,” Corrine beamed in a sing–song voice.

That sounded exciting, but I couldn’t help but wonder about Iris. I didn’t want to bring her along because we all know that shopping is a long and tiring process, but I also didn’t want to leave her here.

“I don’t know,” I murmur, biting my lips.

It’s not that I didn’t trust Teresa, but I just didn’t feel comfortable leaving her with her. It would have been okay if Noah or Rowan were around, but they weren’t.

“It’s about Iris, isn’t it?” Letty asks while searching my eyes.

Instead of answering, I just nod my head. I really wanted to go shopping. I’ve been cooped up in this house for so long that it’s driving me crazy. Besides, I wanted this experience. I never had girl friends growing up. No friends to go shopping with or talk about boys and such stuff. This was all new, even though I know we’ve probably done this before, so I wanted to

experience it.

“If it troubles you so much, I can lend you one of my dresses so that we can bring Iris with us. We can always go shopping at a later date,” Corrine suggests, and I smile.

I’ve only interacted with these two a couple of times, but so far, I like them a lot. They’re kind, lovely, and pretty great friends. No wonder I became friends with them.

“Glad to hear that… Is the matter concerning shopping the reason you called? You do know you don’t need my permission to go anywhere. Provided you have a bodyguard with you, then I don’t mind.”

I never thought I would ever be in this position. I hated being followed around by a bodyguard as if I were someone important, but I also understand that until they catch whoever tried to kill me, then this is my life.

“No, that’s not the reason… I don’t want to take Iris with me, but I also don’t want to leave her here with Teresa.”

He’s quiet for a while. I sit down on our bed as I wait for him to speak up. Maybe he could give me a solution to my dilemma.

“How about you give me some time to come up with something?” He asks, and I nod, forgetting that he couldn’t see me.
