"We shall go to the next location. There is something that I would love to eat. It is something that you will love. I know how much of a sweet tooth that you have. I have an idea of what you get but first, go to the nic nack store that you pointed out." Cedric leads her out of the boutique. "I do not like stuck up places like that. They tend to treat people like peasants and only care if the person looks like they have money. We are nicely dressed but if we were in different clothes they would frown upon us.""If that is that case I will not go back there. I thought that they had some really nice looking items but if they treat customers like that then I would rather not go back." Yuki follows Cedric"s lead happily and they go to the nic nack stand. She looks at everything and doesn"t see anything that caught her eye but was happy that they looked at it.
Cedric watched as she looked at the items smiling. "Do not hesitate if you see something that you like."
"Welcome to my stand. I am sorry that I do not have a lot out. Sometimes people run past and things get broken. I can not afford to keep replacing what is lost." The lady stood up and opened a container on the ground and lifted it up.
Yuki looked in the container and she pointed to a gla.s.s crow. "I will take the crow. It is well made. Thank you for showing me the other goods that you stored away."
"The crow is part of a set. Do you want the whole set of five?" The lady pulled out the two crows in that container then opened the second one and pulled two more out. She opened the third one and pulled out that last crow.
"Wait before you close that one. I will take that silvery white fox as well. I, of course, will buy the whole set!" Yuki reached out and wanted to touch the fox.
Cedric pulled out eighty dollars and placed the money down. "If you could wrap them up well I will pay you extra if need be."
"Oh, no. This is more than they are worth. I can not take this much. This is more than what they are worth. I do not want to rip you off." The lady lifted up only two of the twenties.
"No, please. I want all seven designs. You did such a good job. I love them so much and you should be proud of yourself. Please take it all and I will cherish what you sold me." Yuki touched the nine-tailed fox.
The lady wraps the figures in clothes that match the designs of the figures. She pulled out a bag that showed the nine-tailed fox looking at the full moon, a crow that was flying, and a bat hanging off a tree upside down. She placed the figures in the bag and handed it to Yuki. "Thank you for your purchases." She bowed her head with her eyes closed.
Cedric watched out how carefully she was wrapping the figures and had forty dollars in his hand and he placed it down when the lady closed her eyes as she bowed. "Thank you."
Yuki took the bag. "I will cherish this bag. Please have a good day." She looked at Cedric as he added more money and walked away after it was placed down. Once they were out of her sight Yuki looked at Cedric. "You are kind to her. I am happy that you tipped her. She takes pride in her work. I figured if we did not leave she would try to give you the money back. Where are we going to get you some food?"
"That is correct. I am glad that you understood that much. I figured that we would have a crepe. I can get one that is considered a meal and not a treat." Cedric leads her towards the food area again. Once they reach the crepe stand he looks at Yuki.
Yuki"s eyes were as big as saucers. She saw the display case that showed different types of crepes. "Oh, Cedric! There are so many options. Now I know why you said that I would like this! It is amazing." She was bouncing on the spot excited while standing in the lineup.
"Decide which one you want and I will get it for you. I am going to grab a chicken caesar salad crepe. It will fill me up enough for us to walk around more." Cedric pulled out a twenty and waited.
"I think I want the strawberry deluxe. It looks absolutely amazing!" She looked at him and was all smiles as she bounced in the spot.
Cedric chuckled, "I thought is what you would get." They moved up to the till. "We will get one chicken caesar crepe and one strawberry deluxe crepe. Yes, you can add nutella to the strawberry one and extra sauce on the caesar please."
"Of course sir. That will be seventeen dollars and fifty cents, please." The girl waited for payment.
Cedric gave her the twenty and stepped to the side with Yuki. "You will enjoy the crepe. I know your tastes." He leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
Yuki flushed from his kiss and looked into his eyes. "Thank you. I really am the luckiest girl in the world. If there is one thing that I know. It is that you love me unconditionally and I love you more than any other person has loved someone before."
"I know. That is why I must treat you as well as I can. I may have taken you in a way that I didn"t plan in the beginning but when I bought you as my slave I had intended to use you to relieve my desires. I did not know that you were my beloved. Do you mind the way I took you?" Cedric tucked a strand of hair that was flying loose behind her ear.
