Owen

  We were walking around with Sang and Shadow. Shadow on Sang's right as always. I am walking behind her on the right with Sean behind on her left.
We have slightly  ahead of Sean on her left is Gabriel and Luke. Slightly a head of me on her right is Victor and Jason. She seems ok so far.

   Shadow has on her  'Emotional Support Animal Please Don't Touch' harness. It has a handle that Sang can hold. She is so patient as we walk through the store. She automatically sits next to Sang when we stop with her body pressing up against Sang.
  We were just walking around the mall right now, letting Sang get use to the people before we tackle the shops. We did stop at the Annies Soft Pretzels shop for a 'Cinnamon/Sugar' one. According to Luke, Sean, and Jason it right of passage or something when going to the mall. Of course those 3 had to get a whole big pretzel. I'm not  sure where they put it, after the breakfast we just had. Me, Sang, and Victor shared one. Sang got half and me and Victor getting a ¼ each. Good thing North wasn't here.
  We stop at a Victoria Secrets store.
  "We need to get her fitted. I called ahead to the Manager yesterday and told her about Sang needing a fitting. But that she dont like wemon touching her. I told her her doctor agreed to come and do the fitting itself with her assistance. You 4 will wait out here while we are in the back. Look at sleep stuff and stuff for her." Gabriel saids as he, Sean and Sang go in the back.
Short time later they came back. Sang was watching the middle age woman nervously, but didnt seemed to overwhelmed.
  "Ok we got her sized. Pick out small adult in the clothes." Gabriel saids.he then takes Sang asking to point to the colors she liked. Shes learned her colors but she didn't seem to have a favorite color itself, but the shades or tones of the color. She liked the more bright or bold color not really liking the pale colors. She liked gem tones like turquoise. She liked hot colors too. Like hot pink, bright pink, magenta.
  After we payed for undergarments, night cloths, sweat cloths, and Bathing suits at Victoria Secrets, we went to a teen clothing store. A older teenager was behind the counter chewing gum and doing something on her phone as she was talking to 4 teenage boys and 3 other teenage girls. They didn't seem to notice us so we looked around. We heard them talking as we shopped.
   "I'm telling you Greg I dont know why my Mom is making me work a summer job. She made Dad stop giving me my allowance. She saids I need to value the money and learn to live off what I make. Shes making Jay do the same. She was so mad when I was fired from that hospital." One saids. Where have I heard her voice before?
  "I know but once school is back in, you can make alot of money. Just think how rich we will become." One the boys saids. He had that superior voice.
  We stayed around Sang. She looks contentedly at the outfits.
  "Excuse me gentlemen, DOGS are not allowed in this store. You need to leave." A high pitched voice said. We looked up at the girl behind the counter giving us a glare.
  Victor pointed out the dogs vest as Sang hid behind Luke.
  "Ma'am this is a service animal for emotional support. We have her certificate though with the formal service animal vest you are not allowed to question us." Victor saids calmly.
  "Well you cant be in here with a dog it could get hair all over the clothes." The girl saids. Her name tag saids Whitney. Her friends were all watching us. The boys sneered and the girls were looking at us boys like candy.
   "Well if you would ask your manager to come out I'm sure we can solve this." Victor replies still calmly.
   "There is no manger right now. You need to leave before I call security." She responds angrily.
  "Then I will call my lawyer to call the owner of the mall right now. I'm sure they will they know the laws." Victor saids still in his calm voice. He pulls out his phone.
  "My aunt who owns the store said no pets, no food or drinks. I'm calling my aunt right now." Whitney argues. She gets her own phone out.
  "Aunt Cecile I have a group of guys in here with a dog and will not leave. Ok see you in a few minutes." She hung up the phone as one her friends moved to see around Luke's body.
  "Oh look a little girl. Hi little girl are you sleeping with all these guys. Cum with me and I can show you how a real man treats a girl." He saids with a sneer. Sang shakes with fear. Shadow gets between the guy and Sang. Shadow is staring at him.
  "Ok my niece said people has a dog in my store and will not leave. I have mall security with me." A middle aged woman saids with a annoying tone of voice. She comes in to the store wearing clothes more fitting a young teenager with heavy makeup. I see Gabriel wanting to tell her she had to much on. Less is more is his point of view.
   She also had 2 security guards with her.
  "Ma'am I'm on the phone with my lawyer. The dog is a emotional support animal and against the law to ask us to leave. My lawyer ask are you telling us to leave because a service animal is in your store." Saids Victor still calmly and respectful.
   "I am. My rules are no animals or food and drink in the store. I don't want anything to get on my merchandise." She responds.
   "If I may." I say. "When we came in your employee ignored us. She was chewing gum, talking to her friends, and all 8 were talking while eating and drinking sodas. Then that boy made suggested remarks to a minor. So we will also be getting police involved. We were actually about to go as our minor friend, who we was looking to buy a whole new wardrobe for she didn't like your clothes. She has had a bad past and has PTSD, which is why she has the dog. Look how traumatized she is. The first time we bring her into public to buy her clothes. Victor see if we can sue her for damages. Our friend is going to need more therapy." I say. Not that we will but it may make her think first.
  "I have him on the phone. He is getting in touch with the malls owners. See if they approve this lady breaking the law. I say we go to some of the little mom and pop type stores. They have better stuff. It might cost more but it's not like we can't afford it." Victor saids. I nodded and we turn to leave.
  One of the guards phone went off. He answered and talked quietly. He holds his hand up for us to wait. He then finished talking to who was on the phone. Without hanging up he comes to us.
  "I'm sorry Mr Phoenix Victor Westmoreland for all this trouble. The owners would like use to offer you 10% off at all the stores today. Just pay like normal then take the receipts to the the customer service." The guard saids.
"Unfortunately we may need to go now. Our companion is having a panic attack. Her service animal is trying to keep that guy that made sexual suggestions from getting close to her and not calming her. Non of you have pulled him away from her. I'd trespasse him. We would call the cops if it wouldn't traumatize her more." I say. I watch as Jason, Gabriel, and Luke talking to her.
  "Mr Vanile please take these kids and trespass them from the mall. Ms Hasheem the owners has asked me to tell you that you have until end of the month to relocate your store. Not only for this, but you haven't paid you rent in 4 months. They were going to wait until school started back to see if you would be paying your back rent. Also their lawyers will be getting with you about the back rent. Please have a good day." He saids to the shop owner.
  "Mr Westmoreland our owners will find away to make it up. If you will follow me. We are sorry about that. Maybe the owners can talk to the young lady. See if they can do anything for her?" He asked.
  "Unfortunately she can't talk and she doesn't trust many people. We will see if she calms enough to keep shopping. Also we have to be done by 11pm we have other business somewhere else for lunch." I say. He leads us to a sitting area that was quite. I went over to Sang and kneel down in front of her.
   "Miss Sang, my dear you are ok. Sorry I didn't comfort you right away. We needed take care of that first." I hold my hand out to her. Letting her touch me when she is ready. Shadow is licking her hand. I see her calming down. She puts her hand in mine.
   "Good girl. With your thumb up if you want to stay or down if you want to leave." I say. I can see she was thinking then she put her thumb up. She wanted to stay.
   "Ok let's do some more shopping. Its therapy for Mr Gabriel Lee." I say. She smiles and keeps holding my hand. Gabriel leading the way. Gabriel was having fun as we went store to store. We got her all kinds of outfits. I could see she was getting tired. Not only was she trying clothes on, Luke was also signing different names and colors of things.
"Ok Mr Gabriel Lee we need to start to head out. We all getting tired and might want a nap before heading to Victor's house." I say and we finished up. We took all our receipts to customer service. They added everything up and sent the amount to the owners who will send us a refund of 10%.
  We get back to Uncles. A sleepy Sang lets her dogs and bird out to do their businesses. She came back in and curled up on the sofa between Victor and Jason and fell a sleep. We all just relaxed and rested.
