CHLOE
I couldn’t care less if I disrupted the business environment or drew unnecessary attention. I just screamed my lungs out.
“Chloe!” Riley called, grabbing my arm. “Stop screaming, okay? You're making everyone stare at us,” she whispered in my ear as she took the ugly-looking plastic from my hands.
I heaved a sigh in relief, still gasping. That was really something.
Tiffany chuckled. “Why did you scream that way?"
“I felt overwhelmed and… I'm sorry for ruining your day,” I apologized with a quick bow. “Can I leave now so I don't ruin this further? You both deserve to quietly shop for gifts without interruption whatsoever,” I said quickly, my words spilling out in a rush.
Just as I retreated, Tiffany called me back. “I think it will be fun with you around. Don't leave, dear.”
