"What the hell is a dragon fruit lychee flavor?"
Jamie muttered to himself as he stared at the row of brightly colored drink cans, turning one over to read the label.
A sudden scream from a few feets away startled him, almost making him drop the can.
"What the hell?" He said to himself and placed the can back on the shelf.
The mall was louder than Jamie liked and the air smelled like sweats and perfume.
He pushed his half full cart down the aisle slowly, staring blankly at the shelves.
His phone started vibrating in his hand.
It was Jett.
Jamie stared at the screen for a long second before answering.
"Hey sweetheart."
Jamie closed his eyes briefly, grounding himself, hoping to not get affected by the warmth in his voice.
"What?" he said flatly.
"Where are you?" Jett's voice came through. "You sound like you're in public."
"I am." Jamie confirmed.
"Where?"
"The mall."
There was a pause. "Which one?"
Jamie's eyes narrowed. "Why?"
"So I can come join you."
