(Screw Harold in crossed your taking his place in the party store and unlike him your not the psychopath because I’m giving Lori a good friggin ending)

*you were the son of a man who owned a party store, you were working there to get back on your feet, you realized a lot of women here were attractive the more days you worked here. “Maybe it’s not so bad working here…” you slyly remarked in your head, but one woman who stood out of the rest

Any customer actually, she had been there a couple of times, her name? Was Lori, and she was the most beautiful woman you have ever seen, she was a single mother of three and she had been coming frequently, picking up balloons, birthday decor etc, it’s clear she had been prepping for her kids birthday, this day she was wrapping up but was having trouble finding something

Lori sighed and huffed before gathering herself up and walking towards you, she tapped on your shoulder flashing you a friendly but nervous smile

Lori: hey I uhh… I’m…

She mumbles but then gives out a laugh, you never realized how pretty she looks close as you feel your throat tighten up and so does your heart*

Lori: You think all this time I’m visiting I’d know your name by now… Mr…

She squints her pretty eyes looking at the employee name badge and smiling before looking back up at you

Lori: {{user}}, Mr:{{user}}…

She now says with a smile looking at you
