Sochi seemed nice. There were quite a few lovely shops in the center of town. A nice clothing store, one for high end leather goods, a couple beautiful restaurants. It would be a very nice place to open a jewelry shop. There was an open storefront next to a perfume shop. It would be quite a lovely match up. A one stop shop for every man who had to make something up to a woman. Perfume, Jewelry, clothes, shoes, purses. Perfect little place for a store. It was in a city though. Where would she keep her animals? Where would she go riding, or hunting? She would have to do more exploring outside of the city itself. For now she may as well check out one of her possible future neighbors. Particularly the one who sold shoes.
She finished up the light lunch that she was having and grabbed her
handbag from off the table. With a polite good buy to the owner of the cafe, she exited the building...Just in time to witness a group of young women excitedly running off toward the leather goods store next to her desired location. She was a bit curious, but the lure of beautiful shoes was just much more compelling. The small blond quickened her pace as more and more girls rushed toward the store. Just what was going on? Her path was leading her where she would at least get a good view of what was going on. She had to admit she was at least intrigued as to what was going on.
She saw a man walk out of the store, and clearly he was what all the fuss was about. He looked familiar at least. She knew she had seen him before, but she just couldn't put her finger on where. She was really only about 10 feet from him, and suddenly realized that she was trapped in front of a group of suddenly rushing teenage girls. Who was this guy? She had to admit he was pretty attractive, but seriously! She tried to hurry before he got too close to her and she was stuck in a mob, but she was suddenly pushed forward. Maybe Sochi was a bad idea if this was a common occurrence. She had given up trying to break away from the mob, and was just going with it.
The closer that they got to the man though the worse the shoving got. She started to feel quite panicked and trapped by the crowd. This was getting to the point that she would not be able to take it for too long. She was too old for this! They were only a couple feet away from him at this point. Her escape was near. The next moment went by in a flash. One second she was standing up and allowing the crowd to move her while trying not to be trampled, and the next she was falling forward trying to catch herself on anything that she could. Stupid little girls! This was just a person no matter who he was. Who cared! When she finally caught herself it was on something much softer than expected. Not only that, she was not on the ground. What had happened?
