Raven had the day to herself. This was first day in a long time that she had total control over what she would and could do. Her loving husband knew the stress signs, and could tell Raven was at the breaking point. Steve and Raven had been married for 10 years and had 3 beautiful children. Two sons 8 and 6, and one daughter 3. Raven was content with her life most of the time, but there were times staying at home and being the perfect wife and mother became too confining. Steve recognized when Raven needed a break, and this was her day. She had the day to herself to do as she pleased.
As Raven drove away from the house waving good bye to Steve and the children, she planned her day. Actually she decided there would be no plan, she would just play it by ear. She would start at the mall, and do a little window shopping, and see what transpired.
The day was cloud covered and windy. It was mild as far as the temperature went. The weather forecast called for rain later in the afternoon, so Raven had brought along her jacket and umbrella. Raven was wearing a nice silk purple warm up suit. This was not for working out but for looking good. Raven was average height of 5'5" and average weight somewhere around 130 lbs. The one part of her anatomy that was not average was her breasts. She had what some referred to as an "ample bosom". Ample being a 36 double D cup. If that did not attract attention, her emerald green eyes did. Especially in contrast to her black hair for which she was given the name Raven.
Being a Wednesday, Raven did not think the mall would be overly crowded. She preferred it that way. A quiet morning of window shopping without any distractions was just what Raven needed. There were a few things that Raven would like to pick up while she was here. Her favorite jeans and t-shirt were becoming rather thread bare, and her lingerie selection needed updating. Anything to spice up life in the bedroom was good, thought Raven.
Raven entered the mall through the JC Penney store. Wandering through the store she stopped in the children's section. Raven admired a little dress that would look so cute on Amanda. "What are you doing?" Raven asked herself. "This is your day out alone! Leave the kids at home." Giggling to herself, Raven let go of the dress and went out into the mall.
The next store she stepped into was the Gap. Here Raven would pick up some new jeans and possibly a couple of comfortable t-shirts. A young male sales person approached her, but before he could ask Raven said "I am just browsing." Raven hated to be helped too much. If she needed something she would ask, otherwise she liked to shop alone. Raven strolled over to the women's jeans. All of the jeans appeared to already have been worn. She giggled to herself again. Picking up 2 pair of jeans Raven went into the changing rooms.
As Raven removed her shoes and then started pulling off her pants, she realized she had not worn any panties. This was force of habit, but Raven usually remembered to put some panties on when she knew she would be shopping and trying on clothes. "Oh wellβ¦" Raven said in a sigh. She continued to pull her pants off and slide the first pair of jeans on. To Raven's chagrin the size she normally wore fit a little snugger than she thought they should. Frowning, Raven stepped out of the fitting rooms and walked to the 3 way mirror between the sock displays on the wall. Looking herself over in the mirror, front to back, side to side, Raven was in deep thought when a voice brought her back to reality.
"They look perfect and accentuate your perfect curves nicely." The voice said. Looking around Raven found the owner of this voice. The voice was that of a petite and very beautiful red head looking at her over a rack of hanging boxer shorts. Smiling at this stranger Raven said, "Thank you, but they feel a bit too tight. I think I will try on the next size." Raven disappeared back inside the fitting rooms. Taking the tight pair of jeans off and then trying the next pair of jeans on, Raven's thoughts were on the red headed stranger with the piercing brown eyes and tendrils of red curls that vanished behind her back. Running her hand down her stomach and over the front of the second pair of jeans, Raven decided she much preferred the comfortable fit of the second pair of jeans, but liked the look she was given by the stranger while wearing the first pair of jeans. Smiling Raven said, "Ok, I will take them both then."
Upon leaving the fitting rooms, Raven looked around for the red headed stranger, wanting to thank her for her help. The store was empty except for a few shoppers who were not the sexy stranger. With more disappointment than seemed warranted, Raven concluded her shopping by picking up two new t-shirts.
Next stop, Raven decided, would be the book store. There was a new romantic mystery out that she wanted to pick up. While perusing the shelves, Raven came across the "Alternative Lifestyles" section. She had never noticed this section before. Looking over the books one book caught her eye. The title was "The Best Bisexual Erotica". This brought Ravens thoughts back to the redhead and a warm volt of electricity shot through Raven. Shaking this off with a sigh, Raven continued on her original book quest. Finding her book, she went to the check out counter. After paying for her book, Raven grabbed her bag and started out into the mall again when a voice down a row of books caught her attention. Backing up a step Raven peered down the isle and there stood the gorgeous red headed stranger.
"Did you say something to me?" Raven inquired. "Yes, I did. I said I have something for you." This stranger then handed her a store bag, which obviously had a book inside. Opening the bag, Raven picked up the book. As she read the title a chill went up her spine. It was "The Best Bisexual Erotica" book Raven had looked at when she first came into the store. Looking up to ask the stranger why she would give her this, the stranger was gone again. Moving out into the main isle, looking up and down the store, Raven saw no signs of the red head. Placing the book back into its bag and placing that bag into her bag, Raven left the book store. Looking anxiously up and down the mall for any sign of this intriguing red head who had stirred feelings deep inside Raven, she was disappointed not to see any sign of her.
Walking down the mall, Raven's stomach began to gurgle. She looked at her watch and noticed it was 11am. Raven had not taken the time to eat breakfast and was getting hungry. She decided to go to the charming cafΓ© at the end of the mall and have some coffee and read her new book that was a gift from this captivating stranger.
