Nathan and the Twelve-Year Gamble Chapter 15

The next afternoon, I accompanied Clara Jiang shopping. Women are born shopaholics. They buy things when they are happy, they buy things when they are unhappy, they buy things when they have money, and they will squeeze out money to buy things when they have no money... They almost never have a moment of peace.

What I hate most is shopping, especially shopping with Clara Jiang. She seems very decisive and efficient normally, but she is like a completely different person when shopping. For the same style of clothes, she can spend more than half an hour choosing because of different colors, and will ask dozens of times "Does it look good? Does it look good? Does it look good?" If you answer "Yes" immediately, she will definitely say "You didn't even look at it"; if you say "It looks good" as if you are thinking, she will put on a provocative attitude and say "You've been looking at it for such a long time before you say it looks good, are you serious?"; if you say "It's just average", she will roll her eyes and say "Anyone can praise me for being pretty, but you think I'm just average"; if you say "It doesn't look good", then it's over. Even if she doesn't get angry at that time, she will find something to fight with you at night.

Despite this, I will still accompany her. First, to make up for the wish I made a few days ago, and second, I feel like I have done something wrong and I have to compensate her.

Actually, I didn't do anything, I just let my mind wander.

Distraught.
