Seeing the gentleman extended his hand saying "I am Mr. Thomas, Shawney lawyer."
"Sir, I asked for Sid and Curtis's address, not her lawyer, but seeing that you are here, it is nice to meet you."
Reaching his hand across to him, "I am really sorry Sir, but this is important?"
"It is alright young man."
"Sir, I know this is shocking news, but I need to know why my wife is unhappy this day, she is normally very cheerful. I know her Uncle died but today holds something very significant."
"You are right Son, this day is her mom's death anniversary and also her birthday." Seeing him sit down with tears in his eyes. "Son are you alright?"
"Can I ask you something, Sir?"
"Yes, anything young man?"
"Sir, do you think any member of her family will remember it's her birthday?"
"I can't say Son, her family behaves very strangely at times I can't say who can understand them?"
"I know, so I will need your help to remove that unhappiness from her face and put on a smile.
You see Sir, it's my first time in Chicago, and I will need a nice cheesecake, a bucket of ice cream and some good tasting food for around five this evening.
During the day I will let you know for how much I will be expecting. And Sir, I will appreciate it very much if you could be here?
She trust and respect you a lot, and please don't reveal this to her when she returns."
"We will not I promise you."
"Now is the car ready?" Torren collecting the keys as he hurried out thinking, 'I have to hurry and get her some gifts and a ring.'
Giving dad the keys, "Dad today is Shawney birthday, I need to get her a dress, a pair of shoes, and a ring?"
Seeing his dad reach inside his jacket pocket and pull out a small box, "Here Son, I brought this thinking you might need it, it's your Mother wedding ring."
"Oh, dad, this is just perfect." Seeing the tears in his dad's eyes, wondering, 'What he was thinking.
When he whispers, "Those were your mother's exact words."
"Thank you so much dad, but how did you know I wanted to get her a ring?"
"Son, Lasandra and Careen told me you told them that you are married, so I had it clean and polish for when you are ready."
Hugging his dad, "I love you so much dad, and all the time I misbehaved with you, I am so sorry."
"Never mind that, as long as you are happy I am happy."
"Okay, come on my precious children, we have to get your mummy a pretty gift."
"Daddy, me, I want cake, daddy and ice cream." seeing how excited Gretta was.
"Okay, honey, and what you want to get for mummy Tray?"
"Daddy, I want to buy a shoe for mummy?"
"Okay, then I will get a dress so let us go."
Watching how happy they were as they drive away, Thomas close the window, giving Sherry a list of things to order, "And young lady informs them that later we will confirm the amount?"
Then he leave, 'He seems to care a lot about Shawney, is this the person Ken was telling me about when he returned?
Ken had approved of the young man, but he said he wasn't well, trying to recall his name,' scratching his head, 'Boy these days I am forgetting so much.'
Train, drive into the town looking for a parking space, then they decided to visit the mall seeing it is a bit early in the day and it won't have a rush.
Torren searching from store to store looking for a beautiful dress and shoes.
Entering DK's boutique in the mall hearing dad saying, "We should get something in here it looks more fashionable than some of the other stores.
When Tray points to a beautiful salmon color dress, "You like this for mummy son?"
"It is a very pretty dress daddy!"
"I need something real pretty so your mummy will smile."
When a young lady came to assist us asking, "If we needed any help?"
"I need a very beautiful dress for my wife, she is slightly taller than you and about the same size."
We have a few beautiful ones in this showcase, how much you plan on spending, so I could help you out quickly."
"Never mind the cost, looking at the dresses in the showcase when I glimpse this cream with brown stripes, it looks good, but dad has been buying for her since she has been visiting us home.
From the time we got married, she did her own shopping for things to wear home. "Dad what do you think about this cream it looks lovely."
"How about that orange it will look radiant in her?"
"Where dad, I am not seeing any orange dress?"
Pointing to another showcase a bit further behind where Torren was standing. Torren asking the young lady to assist him.
When she said, "Sir that dress is over a thousand dollars, as she removes it from the showcase it glitters with the gold treading.
Taking it from the clerk Torren checks the size at the label, "Dad this has our logo on the label."
"Then if it's from the factory we should not have any problem getting her size, what size is it because Mavis always sends an eight for her."
Hearing the young lady saying, "It is a ten Sir."
"My dear search through and see if it have any eight with this label?"
When she returned with this beautiful burgundy with gold treading Torren hears Gretta clapping, "You like this one for mummy honey?"
"Yep pretty!"
"I love it to honey, I am sure your mummy will look very pretty in it, okay we will take this dress and I will like it gift wrap please."
Following her to the cashier to pay as another customer enters the store, "Ma'am can you cash this dress then gift wrap it please, there is another customer."
When she raised her head, "Torren is that you, I didn't know you were in town?"
