“Psst!”

I look up from my laptop to see Hillary Youngman, one of my youngest customers even if she’s normally just in for costume jewelry, giving me huge eyes.

“Yeah, Hillary?” I ask, minimizing my browser where I’m shopping for some new dresses to stock. “Why are you whispering?”

“Is that . . . you know?” she says, tilting her head slightly to her left. I glance over to the tall, leggy raven-haired woman who’s currently looking through racks of coats. “From Westworld?”

I nod. “She’s staying up at the resort,” I comment. “Just taking a break from filming.”

“You mean,” Hillary says, her eyes going wild, “she talked to you?”

My celebrity customer glances over at Hillary, whose voice went up a bit too high at the last comment, and smirks. I get it. I’ve had enough celebrity customers in the boutique over the past six months that I’ve gotten used to it. Some want to live the celebrity lifestyle. They want their asses kissed, but only in the ways they want them kissed.

Thankfully, most of those avoid my boutique. I get the others, who are either normal people who work a rather unique job, or better yet, those who understand that their public persona means people might go nuts like Hillary is and are happy to interact with fans.

In this case, my customer is the best kind. “Excuse me,” she says in that lilting British accent that I find charming, “I could use some help.”

“I’d be happy to,” I reply, but I see her shake her head slightly. I get the message. “But . . . Hillary, would you mind helping me out? I think you might understand what she needs more than I do.”

Hillary goes over, and I know I should be excited. She’s going to have a great story to tell, and probably a little bit of gossip to share later. Win-win for the boutique. Instead, my brain has swirled on Brad’s parting words last night over and over, and I’ve been perusing the sperm donor site every time there’s a lull in the shop. Thank God for multiple tabs in a browser.

I’ve been looking at it so much that I’m actually starting to think it might be a good idea.

God help me.

I’ve picked out a couple, but one is really the front-runner. The guy that Brad and I both agreed looked like Superman just keeps popping up in my mind, and I checked the website. They’ll deliver nationwide. During lunch today, I even went down the rabbit hole of a few recipient forums where they talk about the whole process.

“Hey, Rose?” Hillary calls, submerging herself fully into her role as ‘assistant’. “What’s the price on this one? The tag fell off.”

I glance over to see her holding up a faux leather jacket that I think is way too thin for when we get into deep winter, but right now, it should look chic and sexy up at the resort in the evenings. “Hundred and seventy-five, but it’s faux leather.”

“Perfect for me. I’ll take it.
