When liss and I got to the mall, though, we were met with an unpleasant sight. Tasha. We immediately turned around and headed into the store to our left, funnily enough it was a little Russian boutique we had never been in. as we looked at all the funny trinkets I felt my mind wandering to a certain someone. Just then a voice broke me out my Dimitri infused trance. "Rose, rose!" I heard, I turned and saw him.
"Dimitri" I said, completely shocked to see him, "what are you doing here?"
"My grandmother owns this place," he answered so matter of factly.
Of course she does, ok. The sound of Lissa clearing her throat brought me out of my thoughts.
"Oh, Dimitri, this is Lissa, my best friend."
They exchanged greetings.
"So, why are you two, stunning ladies at the mall, today?"
I try my hardest not to giggle, "Well, if you must know, we're out shopping for the first day of school outfits."
He held out his arm to each of us, "may I accompany you two ladies?"
Me and liss grab one arm and laugh as we leave. Only to run smack dab into the she devil herself, Tasha. She saw our arms linked and you could tell she was trying her hardest not to explode.
"Rose! What a coincidence to see you here. With Dimitri." She said in a forced cheerfulness. "And Lissa too, of course" she added, practically spitting venom from her mouth.
"Well me and rose were out shopping for first day of school outfits and we ran into Dimitri here. His grandma owns this store" liss said pointing behind her at the little boutique.
"How sweet, she said glaring at liss" then she turned to Dimitri and put on a sickeningly sweet face, "so, Dimitri, why don't we go out and get some sushi or something?"
He seemed obviously uncomfortable, "no. thank you. I was going shopping with roza and liss here." Roza? I wonder what that means hmm oh well. She looked extremely miffed. "Ok, well we'll just have to hang out later than. Byeee!" then she turned on her heal and sauntered out.
I was exhausted already, so I proposed we get something to eat. Liss looked worried when I told them I was kinda tired, but it's become normal lately so oh well. Maybe I'm not sleeping enough at night.

When we got to a table, I almost fell down in relief. Maybe Dimitri could tell how tired I was because he offered to get me my food. I thanked him profusely, and attempted to catch my breath. Liss leaned over the table and whispered, "Rose. What's wrong with you lately? You used to be able to run a mile without breaking a sweat and now your gasping after walking in the mall?"
"Nothing is wrong! I'm just tired is all." But I can't help wonder, what if something is wrong?
