The lost mafia princess

Chapter 11

It made me self coincious as I saw how easily the tape measure coiled around my body.

I knew I was too skinny but this was brutal.

She whispered words to her assistant and walked over to Athena saying the clothes would be done by the end of the day.

That's very quick. But great for me I guess.

We all exited the shop and received the same treatment as we did when we came in.

"Where do you want to go next Alina?" Athena asked me.

"I don't know. Wherever you think is best"

I don't know the area. I also didn't know where I should shop.

I followed Athena as we went into Louis Vuitton.

I felt so out of place.

Here I was with my tattered sneakers and clothes in a luxurious store.

My family got right on with their elegant suits and dress.

I stayed behind them as we entered as I was embarrassed.

Again everyone bowed.

I most definitely think they do it to everyone who comes into their store as a sign of respect.

The boys went together to look and so did Athena and Salvatore.

I guess that meant I was free to look around.

I saw a really cute and fluffy jumper that I fancied. I went over to it to see how much it was.

€540

No way, for an item of clothing!?

I knew it was expensive but I didn't know it was this expensive!

There's no way I can ask my parents to buy this for me.

They've already taken me in and they said they'd buy me clothes but I can't ask for these types of clothes.

I stepped away and just looked around, trying not to wince as I caught the prices of items.

I'm hoping there's a store around here that's actually affordable.

I continued to look around at the shirts when a member of staff came up to me.

Did I look that lost?

I didn't need help.

"Ma'am I'm going to have to ask you to leave the premises."

"Oh, I'm sorry but why?" I asked.

I wasn't doing anything wrong.

"Only paying customers are allowed in the store, and you are not one of those" she said whilst eyeing my clothes and me in disgust.

I looked around for my family but we were behind a little corner.

"But I haven't found anything I like yet. If I do I will pay!" I tried telling her.

I might have bad clothes but she shouldn't assume anything.

She scoffed.

Plus my family can afford the stuff in here.

"Yeah, right. You either need to escort yourself out or I will be forced to get security" she threatened.

I didn't want to cause a hassle. I didn't want to embarrass my family and tarnish their name so I let her escort me out.

I tried finding one of my family's eyes but they were all facing the opposite direction.

I was too scared to call out for them.
