Walter was sitting down in a chair, holding a bouquet of flowers. He stood up when Lily entered. "My dear Lily! How good it is to see you!" He practically shoved the bouquet in her arms.
"How thoughtful of you, Walter," Lily said, trying to sound pleased.
"I am here to take you shopping. Remember?"
"That's very kind of you."
"Time among civilization will do you good. Go get dressed, and we'll take my carriage into town."
"But I am dressed."
Walter let out an amused laugh. "You intend to go out in those clothes? They are far too undignified to go out in public in."
Not wanting to argue, Lily went upstairs. Sebastian followed. They heard Walter say, "Isn't it inappropriate for a man to be in a woman's bedchamber?"
"Sebastian is my butler. His gender is irrelevant to his duties."
Later, Lily came down dressed in a fancy dark blue dress. Walter nodded in approval. "That's more like it. Shall we go, my dear?"
Lily nodded, frowning, but the teenage boy didn't seem to notice.
Sebastian put on his hat, and Walter said, "You're not needed. I shall take Lily by myself."
"Sebastian goes with me wherever I go."
Sebastian took his hat off. "It is quite alright, my lady. I shall stay here and tend to things."
Lily's expression became more displeased, and she simply went outside. Walter followed. Before the two got in the carriage, they saw Baldroy, Mey-Rin, and Finny running around, shouting about the mouse. Walter asked Lily what they were doing, but Lily brushed it off.
They rode into town, and they walked around, looking in shops. Whenever Lily saw something she liked, Walter insisted on her buying something more expensive and loudly declared that nothing was too good for his fiancee. Lily wasn't impressed.
After they got done in the shops, Lily and Walter headed to a restaurant for lunch. It was a short distance away, so they decided to walk. As they turned a corner, a man walked out in front of them and pointed a gun at them. "Well, well, well, what do we have here? Two little rich kids carrying goodies. Hand them over, and no one will get hurt."
Walter almost screamed, shaking, but Lily put a hand over his mouth. "Are you insane?" she whispered. "He'll kill us if we cause a disturbance."
Walter got away from her and said, "Please, sir, don't harm us. Here. Take everything." He picked up a bag. Lily picked up the heaviest bag and threw it at the man. It hit him in the face and knocked him down. Lily yelled at Walter to run, and they raced away from the man. They ran into a building and slammed the door behind them.
The sign above the building said Undertaker.
