Chapter Three: Time To Shop!
"Alrighty-then. It's settled. We're gonna go shopping today for some new clothes and Leon's paying!" "What! Awwwww. Come on Claire, give me a break. I need what little cash I have." Replied Leon in a desperate voice. But there was no use arguing with Claire, when she says something, it's final.
They left for the mall at around 3:00 PM and finally arrived at 4:00 because of traffic. "Well here we are," said Jill, "Now let's get this over with." They walked around the entire mall looking for different clothes to try on. Jill was even starting to enjoy it. While Leon was grieving over the slowly decreasing weight of his wallet, Jill and Claire were having a blast burning up what was left of Leon's credit card.
Claire was having a blast: trying on gown after gown after gown. Jill just stuck to a white one. "Come on Jill what's the point of going here if you're not even going to try on any more this," Claire snapped. "Well I like this one and besides I'm not really in the mood," replied Jill.
They got home at around 7:00 and quickly Jill sat down on her couch. Just then, Rebecca walked in with Carlos. "Hi everyone," they both said at the same time. "Barry walked in at the same time. He and his family lived nearby and often dropped by to visit. Leon quickly sat down with Carlos and Barry to drink and talk about things.
"Boys and there stupid conversations," whispered Rebecca to Jill and Claire. "I remember when Chris was part of those stupid conversations" said Jill solemnly. "Oh come on, Jill. I know Chris is gone and miss him just as much as you do, but you can't keep dwelling on the past," cried Claire with tears in her eyes. She really missed him to. "I agree with Claire Jill," muttered Rebecca, "Well, I'm gonna get some shut eye. See ya in the morning."
