“This can be tricky. Italians are insane drivers so don’t let go of me.” She warned me.
“I’ve noticed.” I said.
Before I could protest she was dragging me into the chaos.
Taxi’s honked at us. Natives yelled words that didn’t sound so polite. Tourists laughed at us like we were crazy. If they only knew what I knew.
We finally made it to the safety of the side walk.
“That was scary.” I said breathing heavily.
“I think it’s fun.” Diana said beaming.
“It probably is fun for you. If you get hit you can get up and walk away unscathed. I on the other hand, would get seriously hurt or worse, I’d be dead.” I said.
She laughed. “I see your point. If a hair on your head is out of place when Jonathon sees you next I’m dead. So it’s probably better that we don’t do that again.” She said as man held the door to Coach open for us.
I walked in ahead of her. The Coach store was decorated with black and white.
“What colors do you like?” Diana asked me.
“I really like the colors in peacock’s feathers. They’re also my favorite animal.”
“Ooh . . . I know the perfect purse for you.” She said.
I was confused, as she ran off to the back right side of the store. I began in the direction I’d seen her go.
Before I had taken ten steps she was at my side.
In her hands she held a medium hobo style purse. The most beautiful purse I had ever seen.
“They just came out with this design. It is of course called the Peacock.” She said with a swish of her hand.
The bag was gorgeous. Turquoise, orange, cerulean, dark green, light green, and a rich dark purple.
“It’s so beautiful!” I gasped. “Oh good, you love it. I was beginning to think you didn’t like purses the way you scoffed at the Gucci ones.” She said breathing a sigh of relief.
“I did not scoff.” I said defending myself.
“Kylie, you looked like you wanted to burn a hole through them.” She said. We looked at each other and laughed.
I took the bag from her.
“I have to have this.” I said hugging it to my chest not about to let it go.
“Okay. Let’s go get the wallet and school bag. Ooh and the key chain. It has real peacock feathers.” She sing - songed as she danced back to where she’d gotten the bag. Diana was one happy person.
Diana ended up buying me all four, the purse, wallet, school bag, and key chain. She was so happy to see me have a decent reaction to a purse, it was hilarious. I took my boxed and bagged items from the check out lady.
We walked down the street a little ways and crossed it to our final destination. Louis Vuitton.
The store was decorated in dark and light browns. A huge chandelier hung from the ceiling over the center of the store.
“Kylie, I must get you a proper luggage set.”
“Diana that’s really not necessary.” I said.
“Kylie everyone must have a Louis Vuitton luggage set. I don’t know what I’d do without mine. The world will end if you don’t have one.”
