With Me In Seattle: Bundle Two (126 page)
Why is this so damn difficult?
“I’m Martha. Can I help you?” a woman with perfectly styled salt and pepper hair asks, her eyes kind and patient.
“I’m shopping for shoes for my girlfriend,” I reply.
“Designer?”
“Yes.”
“Pumps?”
“Of course,” I reply with a smile.
“Do you know her size?”
I nod and tell her the size I found while snooping inside Alecia’s shoe when she was asleep.
“Perfect. Now, describe her to me in three words.”
A million words run through my head as I think of the woman I love more than anything. But finally I settle on, “Smart. Intelligent. Gorgeous.”
Martha’s lips twitch. “She’s a lucky woman.”
“I’m a lucky man,” I counter and shove my hands in my pockets.
“I have something that just came in,” Martha says and holds up a finger. “Give me just a moment.”
I nod and wander through the sea of shoes. Finally, she returns with a light beige box.
“These Jimmy Choos just arrived.” She peels white tissue and reveals a pair of pink sparkly heels with sexy straps.
“She does pink well,” I murmur and hold the light, sleek shoe in my hand. “These are my Alecia.”
“I’ll ring them up for you,” Martha says with a smile. “Anniversary?”
“No, just because she deserves them.”
Her hands still as she tucks the box in a bag and her gaze whips up to mine. “That might be the nicest thing I’ve ever heard.”
I smile, not sure what to say. I sound like a love-sick puppy, but I can’t help it. After I sign the receipt, Martha passes me the bag.
“A piece of jewelry that sparkles might be a nice pairing with these,” she suggests with a wink. “Tiffany is just across the hall.”
“Convenient,” I reply and shake her hand.
And perfect.
She’ll need a blue box tucked into each shoe.
