I grabbed my purse and we left to buy clothes. The first place I stopped was Harrods to purchase a diamond necklace and a bracelet. Dodod’s dad came out to greet me, we were old friends.

“Hi my dear…it has been a long time… how can I help you?”

“I need a 30 carrot diamond shaped in the form of a tear drop on a necklace with a bracelet to match”.

“Well…I can get that for you…can you come back in 5 hours? It will be ready” he said.

“I will see you when I return”.

The next place was Marc Jacobs store. I purchased a Silver gown with the back out v shape, a slit up the side, with some clear 2 inch heels.

Next I had Ed take me to a small bistro. I ordered a club sandwich and a cup of soup and some soda. It took 20 minutes but it was worth it, I loved their food.

Grabbing my order, I ran, into someone, spilling my soup and drink all over them.

I looked up. The lady was beautiful. Her hair was a chestnut brown, and her eyes were green. I started apologizing profusely. She was standing there with a very annoyed look on her face, not saying a word. The soup was turning into a paste on her blue oxford shirt. A guy came out of nowhere and stood next to her. She signed to him to get my name so I can pay to put her shirt in the cleaners. He turned to tell me. I looked at her and signed directly to her my name.

“Wow! I didn’t meet many people who sign already”. She told Steve he could go back to the table, we didn’t need him to talk.

“What is your name” I asked?

“Jai” she told me, “and your Marina right?”

“Yes…I am so sorry for ruining your shirt. I was in a hurry and was not looking were I was going”.

Jai smiled slightly and say “hence the mess on my shirt”.

“I have a car and a driver outside, we can go purchase you another shirt right now if you will come with me”.

“How do I know you’re not a axe murder?”

“Do I look like one?” I answered.

“Did Hannibal Lecter? No, he was unassuming… but once he got you alone he would heat you for dinner”

“Well…I only eat people for dinner when they want me too…” I told her.

“I will go with you cause you owe me a shirt, don’t eat me” she said, laughing.

We both got up from the table. She told Steve to join us.

“I have to go purchase her a new shirt” she said.

So we all headed to the car and went to Ralph Lauren.

I looked at my watch and realized that I needed to go pick up the jewellery from Harrods.

“Would you mind if we stop at Harrods first?” I asked, “I will only be a few minutes”.

“Fine” she said.

I ran inside to get the jewellery, and came right back out.

“Ed, take us to Ralph Lauren store”.

“So Jai…is that your real mane or your artist name?” I asked.

“My real name is Jodie, Jai is what the art world calls me” she answered,

“Marina what do you do?”

“I owned a coffee shop back in LA”.

Ed informed us that we had arrived at the store. We got out. Jodie went in walking slightly ahead of me. She turned around and said “Stop staring at my ass, come and walk next me”

“So I can at least look at your rack touché” I said.

We reached the section she needed. She browsed and came back with a black and a blue shirt.

“We will not leave here until you pick some with some colors I told her.

She came back with a purple and a red one.

“Now I want to see how you look in each one”.

She turned and went into the dressing room.
