The fight

Mark's pov

It has been a couple of days since I saw Amy in the truck stop. I have been watching them from a far. Amy is trying so hard to keep everything together.

"I will take over," Tyler said getting into the passenger side.

"Thanks, I have a few things that I need to do."

"I already know what you are going to do, get me something to eat while you are out."

"Will do."

He handed me his keys then I got out of the car, he parked next to me, so I didn't have to walk far.

I drove to the closet mall so I can get everything I need here; good thing Tyler's car has a huge trunk. I am getting a shit ton of stuff.

I went into the children's store and loaded up on winter gear and some more clothes, she is going to need winter boots as well. I got her a few pairs not knowing her size. Whatever ones don't fit they can donate to someone else. She has to wear a uniform for school since she is going to a private one, so I got her some more uniforms as well. As I was checking out, I was tapped on my shoulder, I turned around and saw Viviana.

"What are you doing here?" She spat out.

"I donate winter clothes to kids in need."

"Are you sure they are not for that little girl you are after?"

"Why would I do that? You know that I donate to shelters and why are you here?"

"I have my reasons."

"Are you following me?"

"I have my reasons to be."

"They are the children of parents who are the only people who escaped the deadliest gang in the world. Trust me when I tell you that they know how to hide and blend in. IF you want to keep your job I strongly suggest that you back the fuck off and leave me to my work."

She went to open her mouth but walked away.

"I am so sorry about that," I said to the cashier.

"It's okay, she doesn't seem like a nice person."

"Not at all."

I paid her the money then took the bags to Tyler's car, I went back into the mall and headed to a store that looks like Amy would shop there. I got her full winter gear as well and some more clothes. She looks to be a small, but I got her all mediums just in case anything shrinks.  I walked over to the area of the shoes looking for a great winter boot for her, she does a lot of walking and needs something that will not let her fall.

"Go for this one," Mika said pointing to the boot on the left.

"How did you know that I am here?"

"Please, anyone who knows you can tell that you have made it your life mission to protect these girls. This one here has great tread on the bottom, and it will keep her feet warm."

"Thank you."

"I can keep Viviana busy if you want."

"Please, she is trying to take Abbie away from her."

Mika rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, I can talk to Ethan and tell him that I need Viviana's help on a case, but you owe me."

"Name your price and it is done."

"I would love a pair of these boots to start." She said walking over to a pair of knee-high boots."
