She had warning him earlier that she would go out, even thought about her credit card in her purse holding the money that she she had been earning with daily chores for years by now. She was never a big spender until recently, when she had decided that shopping was so much more worth living that doing so in the depths of her bedroom or small home.

She sat at the edge of her bed, which she had just freshly made as if using it as an excuse for more time to think.

She itched to reply to his texts, knew that if he was texting and not blowing her phone up with calls, he wasn't able to call at the moment. She managed to turn her phone off completely and bury it within the contents of her purse before tipping the cab driver and stepping out into the heart of the city, stopping in among a group of people as she tried to make a decision on which way to go first.
