Chapter 23

“You didn’t have to pull my hair,” April grumbled as she rubbed her scalp. Sharon just ignored her and kept choosing clothes for her. She didn’t know why but she felt like someone’s pulling strings on her. “Please know that the only reason you won is because I abhor hurting people weaker than me. And, with you expecting, I consider you weaker.”

Sharon gasped, her emerald eyes sparkling with outrage, taking a step in her direction before Amelia stopped her.

“Good god, you guys are like teenage boys always trying to get a rise out of each other. Can you stop?” she said, exasperated. Then she saw what Sharon had picked and her mouth went wide open in disbelief. April knew she’d be in disbelief if she saw it either. “What are you doing? Why did you pick that?”

“It’s nice,” Sharon said defensively, snatching away the neon pink polka dot batwing blouse.

“On a clown. Seriously, after all those years being groomed by Elliot, that designer you model for, I’d have thought you’d already pick up some styling tips,” Amelia muttered, grabbing everything Sharon had picked and dropping them into some poor store assistant’s arms. April laughed and glanced outside, seeing her bodyguards preventing anyone who looked like a reporter or paparazzi in. Sighing, she wished she was old news.

They were currently at one of the stores in the Michigan Mile. Most shoppers didn’t care who April was, seeing as they were newsworthy themselves, so she was able to walk uninterrupted. Amelia and Sharon were unfazed by the snapping cameras and questions when they’d left the condominium, allowing April to show a strong front as well. In the car, Sharon surprisingly threw her arms around her. Even so, April had drawn comfort from her embrace.

Once they’d arrived, Sharon then dragged them into the closest store and proceeded to take everything off the shelves. Unfortunately, her choices were, in April’s inexperienced eyes, less than spectacular. But who was she to say? She didn’t know what to pick either.

Like ducklings, Sharon and she followed Amelia, trying to absorb whatever nuggets of information she was willing to dispense. Well, April was. She didn’t know what Sharon was doing, apart from sulking. It felt like following her older sister shopping while lugging around their reluctant pregnant younger sister which was really funny considering Sharon was six years her senior.

She couldn’t help but dub her the younger sister since that was the vibe she was currently exuding. Even so, seeing as she had never had a sister, the experience was heartwarming.

“Can we stop? My feet are killing me,” Sharon complained for the fiftieth time, after their visit to the sixth shop. Amelia and April shared a look but agreed to her request. They stopped at a café, requesting a table indoors. April wished they could dine al fresco—it was such a nice day out—but seeing the crowd growing, it seemed prudent to keep away from the public eye as much as possible. Her bodyguards sat a few tables away, far enough to afford privacy but close enough to protect her if the need arises.
