Accidentally Married

Chapter 34

There's nothing I hate more than confrontations, they make me uncomfortable and I don't like it when people bring out the worst in me but this woman is out of pocket.

The woman laughs and speaks in Italian to her employee. The employee walks up to me and looks at me pitifully before trying to take the dress in my hands.

" no im buying this, " I say to her and she looks at her boss and steps away.

Only I try to walk to the counter is when I realise that the other customers in the shop stopped to watch the drama that's happening. Feeling more embarrassed than before I look at Reah. " let's just go, "

" no, it took you forever to find the perfect dress and now that you found it you don't want to buy it because she said you can't? "

" I just don't like all this drama, it's uncomfortable, "

She scoffed at me and takes my hand leading me to the paying booth and puts the dress on the counter. " you are getting this dress, "

The manager just watches like she is waiting for something to happen. The cashier scan the dress and the price almost makes me laugh. Who would ever pay so much for a dress.

I look at Reah. " are they sure this is the right price tag?, " I whisper.

" are you going to pay it or not? " the manager asks

I look at her, than the dress and the price and than at Reah. I would probably be paying this dress off for the next 2 years. I hand them my credit card but the cashier shakes her head, " ma'am we only take debt or cash, "

" Uhm okay, " I look at the card in my wallet contemplating my next move. Sighing I hand her the Gold card.

She swipes it and starts packing the dress into the bag before handing. The manager quickly rushes to the counter and the shock on her face is evident as she sees that the payment is successful.

" call the police, " she's says to the cashier.

Now I'm the one too stunned to speak. Police? Why. The security escort everyone out of the store before locking the doors. " what the hell is your problem lady?" Reah shouted angrily.

" watch how you talk to me because you two are in a lot of trouble, "

" trouble for what? I paid for the dress," I exclaimed

" yes you did, with a stollen card, "

" the card isn't stolen it was given to me,"

" you can explain all that to the police when they get here, " she says before walking off making a phone call.

" Amanda, are you okay? " I feel Reahs hand on my shoulder. " you are shaking, "

" yeah I feel like I'm going to vomit" I tell her as I take a seat.

" you know there's nothing to worry about right, the card is your husbands, " she tries to comfort me.

I nod and take out my phone to call him. I try to think of what to say when he picks up, I really hope he doesn't get mad.

Call...

" hello. " I say nervously

" Amanda, " his voice coming out more raspier than usual. " you okay, "

" yeah I'm okay, there's just been a issue here at the store you recommended, "

" what issue?" He asks, I hear him moving around before hearing the engine start. " I'm around that area, give me 10 minutes, "

" Uhm ok, " I say before the call ends

....

The police arrived a few minutes ago and started talking to the manager before making his way to us.
" ma'am can you please tell how you got hold of this card? "

" I didn't steal it I swear, " I start to say as my eyes start to tear up. " my husband gave it to me earlier today, "

I dont like situations that make me mad because when I'm angry I don't shout, I don't get dramatic.... All I can do is cry, it's pathetic I know.

" sei un bugiada" you're a liar. The manager shouts. " you are a thief there's no way you could have gotten this from your husband, "

" I swear I'm not, " I try to explain

As I'm explaining I see Daniel enter the shop, he immediately walks to me and cups my face. " Tesoro , why are you crying?"

" they are saying that I stole your card, " I tell him but I can barely look at him because of the tears in my eyes. " I've been trying to explain but they don't believe me,"

"Grazie a dio sei qui" thank God you are here. The manager rushes to Daniel. " this woman somehow got a hold of your card and tried to buy clothes with it,"

" good thing I saw your name on the system or otherwise she would have gotten away with it "

Daniel sighs and walks towards the manager. " E mio moglie, tutto cio che possiedo le apportiene " She's my wife, everything I own belongs to her.

" Moglie?" Wife?. she looks shocked at what he said. She looks and Daniel than at me than back at him. "you have to be joking, "

" you married her? She's the one you decided to marry after all the beautiful women I've introduced to you," she says making Daniel visibly irritated.

" I suggest you apologise to my wife and her friend for the inconvenience you have caused them, " he says seriously.

She laughs." Intend questa opprofittatrice? " you mean this gold digger?.

Daniel curses under his breath. " You will remember this day Antonia"

" let's go, " he walks towards me and Reah and picks up the bag from Lear's us out the door.
