Mikayla used to go shopping and buy things, but it had never been as crazy as today.

Could she be under some kind of stress?

Mikayla smiled and asked, “Do I look like there’s something wrong?”

Celeste nodded. “Very wrong.”

Mikayla patted Celeste on the shoulder. “Relax, I’m fine. I know what I’m doing.”

Finally reaching the men’s section, Mikayla was already laden with purchases.

Celeste began to pick out ties and clothing seriously. “Kay, do you want to pick something for Jerome too?”

Mikayla refused. “No, he doesn’t deserve it.”

Celeste felt speechless.

And she said she was fine?
