'Seriously? Harry, we've just been in' I sigh as he pulls my arm into the toy store. I mean, I do love taking my little brother shopping, because I don't see him much, but it costs a fortune. We walk into the huge colourful store and Harry eyes gawp at all the toys. 'Emmy, can I have a totoro?' I smile, it reminds me of something.'show me where they are and we'll see.' I smile. He's still clutching tight into my sleeve and leading me towards the many sizes of the stuffed totoros. 'ah, I thought I realized the name.' Its from that Japanese animae I used too watch. 'can I have the big one?' of course he wanted the BIG one. 'oh its buy one get one free I can get one!' I stand on my tiptoes trying too get the last two on the top shelf when a tall gentleman brushes past me, grabbing one of the totoros. 'erm, excuse me?' I tap him on the shoulder. 'I believe your holding my totoro?' the guy turns around, brushing back his curly brown hair with his free hand. he turns around with a stern look on his face, he takes one look me and smiles. 'oh sorry, were you getting this?' 'yes, me and my brother wanted them' Harry swiftly hugs my leg pouting. 'aww, your cute aren't you?' he smiles, ruffling Harry white chocolate hair. 'sorry mate, here have it, I'll get the smaller size' 'no, its fine, it doesn't really matter because we were only getting two because of the free one' I say handing him the large toy back.
'unless I buy the two and you can have the free one?' he smiles, looking at Harry. 'are you sure because I'll buy on..' 'its fine, I was going too have to pay for one anyway.' he grabs the last toroto on the shelf and drops them on the counter. The old lady lookes up and smiles. 'anything else?' she says scanning the two items and putting them in two separate bags. 'no thanks' pj says, his voice as happy as ever. 'that's 17 pounds please.' she says, pushing her purple rimmed glasses further up her nose and tucking her graying hazel hair behind her ear. 'ah! thank you!' pj replies handing over a twenty pound note. 'that's three pound change and your receipts in the bag' He takes the bags and gives one too Harry. 'there you go kiddo' 'aw what a good father you've got there!' the cashier coos at Harry. we look at eachother awkwardly before I reply 'yes but he's a monster at home, come on hunnie, were meeting mum at 5' 'oh okay babe, bye' we both wave at the woman before he put his hand around my waist and walk out the door, trying too contain our laughter, whilst Harry still clings onto my wrist looking confused. after leaving the shop we both fall into laughter. 'sorry I panicked' I blush. 'it was fun though, do we really look that old too have a 5 year old?' we both laugh off the awkwardquestions brewing in our minds. 'i'm so sorry, but i've got too get Harry back to mums for 6 and they live in Manchester, but I'm back tomorrow so let me buy you coffee, its the least I can do for the toroto.' his beautiful smile returns too his face. 'i'd love too, oh I never caught your name?' 'its emmy, and this is harry, yours?' 'pj' 'cool name!' I suddenly fumble around in my bag for some sticky notes. 'text me?' I smile handing him over a note with my name and number on. 'okay, well have a safe trip, and see you soon kido!' again ruffling Harry hair and letting Harry ruffle his. Harry waves, he can never really find his tounge when around strangers. 'cya tomorrow.. pj' I awkwardly stick my hand out and we shake, his hands are so soft. I turn after waving and grab Harry hand and wonder too the car clicking the button to open the doors. I srap Harry into his booster seat in the back of the car and set off to mums in Manchester.
