Rushing to not keep her waiting, Gilbert practically flew to the shop.

Just like before, he grabbed what he needed and was ready to bolt. But as he reached the door, he paused.

The clerk was a bit puzzled. “Mr. Johnson, what kind are you looking for?”

Gilbert’s lips curved into a smile, imagining Jenna wearing them. She’d love them, he thought.

“That’ll do.”

He gestured with his chin, “No need to wrap them. I’ll take them as they are.”

“Sure thing, Mr. Johnson.”
