Ignore them.

Elizabeth stepped down from the ladder. She kept her cool and walked to the other side of the store.

"Did we make you mad?" taunted one of the guys.

"You going to send me a copy of that?" said another.

"Yeah. First let me get a face shot so everyone can match an ass with face."

He held up the phone and followed Elizabeth. She stuck her hand out to block her face. The flash went off.

"I can't see nothing," said the guy with the phone. "She can't block her face for long."

"You boys leaver her alone," said a middle-aged woman near the shoes.

"Shut the fuck up!" they retorted. "Mind your own damned business!"

Several customers left the store. Ashley, the cashier, ran to the back in search of Paul.

"Motherfucker!" the guy with the phone yelled. "You just had to get us in trouble."

All three of them ran out of the store as Paul reached the sale's floor.

"What's going on?" he asked Elizabeth.

"They were taking picture up my skirt and then they started hollering at customers."

"Were you hurt?" he asked.

"No, but they said they were going to post the picture on the internet."

"I'll have mall security track them down," he said. "Why don't you head on home? We're probably going to lock up early to avoid any further scenes."

"Thanks Paul," she said with a smile.

"No problem," he smiled back.

Elizabeth gathered her belongings and drove home. It was a quiet drive, but she worried what might happen if Sam found out what had happened today. She wasn't going to tell him anything, but it was all a little too weird even for Elizabeth. She prayed that mall security confiscated the phone and that the picture wouldn't wind up on the internet for all to see. She also hoped he didn't find out about anything else.

When Elizabeth got home, she remembered that her parents were out of town for the weekend. She was looking forward to her date with Sam and he wondered if they would come back here later. The thought brought goosebumps to her arms.

It was only 3:00 and Elizabeth had a couple of hours before Sam would arrive.
