The afternoon in the mall with Duke was a dream come true.
We held hands and checked out stores, the feeling of his fingers interlaced with mine gave me immense pleasure.
Duke and I decided to pick clothes for each other to try.
We separated to get garments for each other, and we were only a few racks apart when several salesgirls gathered around Duke. I glared at them as my anger swelled, but before I caused a scene, Duke shooed them away.
"Thank you, ladies, but my fiancée is here.", Duke said with a smile while gesturing toward me. "I don't want her to misunderstand."
"We were only trying to help.", one of the salesgirls said innocently and I wanted to scratch that fake mask she was wearing. She was ogling at MY Duke, and she knew it!
