THE SHOPPING MALL

“Lock down the shopping mall” Leonardo shouted to his guard next to him.

He rushed into the changing room.

“Arya….”, he said.

She looked at him with fear.

“What’s wrong? You screamed”, he said.

She pointed at the wall and a spider was nearby.

Wait! A spider!

He never knew Arya had fear of spiders.

“Come here”, he said, pulling her to him and held her as they walked out of the changing room.

He signaled the sales representative to check out the spider and do something about it.

“I thought it was something else. You scared me half to death”, Leonardo said as he kissed her head.

“Did you see that spider? It was huge”, she said.

“Sorry princess, we could check out the other places”, he said to her.

She gave it a thought.

Leonardo ran his eyes over her again looking for signs of anything that might have hurt her.

“Chill out, I’m fine. I was only frightened”, she said as she noticed his worried look.

“I can’t help but worry about you”, he said.
