Shopping: It's Sam and Carly's shopping day, but what has Carly asked to make Sam act all jittery?
"C'mon Sam just answer my question!" Carly cried as they walked on the sidewalk.
"Hey Shoes R' Us is having a sale."
"Sam!"
"It's 50% off," Sam said in a sing-songy voice.
Carly glanced towards the store, then glared at Sam.
"Alright, we'll go to the store but then we'll continue this conversation." Carly said and walked into the shoe store.
Sam secretly thanked all heaven and her lucky stars for shoes, and Carly's obsession for them.
Too quickly, Carly's mind struck reality once again.
"Are you going to answer my question now Sam?"
"I'm thinking of another excuse, be patient." Sam mumbled.
"It's not that hard!" Carly yelled.
"Hey! Build a Bra sale!" Sam yelled and ran into the store, Carly in tow.
Carly sighed when she lost Sam in a crowd of teenagers. Might as well shop, she thought.
At exactly 7 o' clock, they left the mall and Carly was frustrated. Sam had successfully avoided the conversation over 150 times, but this time she wasn't so lucky.
"Where's Spencer!" Sam yelled.
"He won't be here for a while so why don't you answer my question?"
Sam looked all over for an escape route. When she found none she sighed and looked at Carly.
"What did you want to know?"
"Who was the song written for?" Carly said, refering to the one that she had sung to them for Christmas.
"For Meli, she got her heart broken, plus I owed her a song."
"Second question, why'd you run out."
"I thought you guys didn't like the gift."
"But Freddie told you?"
Sam nodded.
"Last question: What did Freddie give you for Christmas?"
Sam opened her mouth to answer, then shut it. She couldn't think of an appropriate answer for this. She still hadn't opened her present, he hadn't told her to. But he gave her more than the little box. He had given her hope, belief, and a friend when she needed it.
"I don't know. I haven't opened it yet." Sam answered and looked off into the distance.
Carly didn't find that as a very convincing answer, but she knew that Sam wasn't going to talk.
She sighed once more.
Some shopping trip this turned out to be.
