A&F

guan! this post is solely dedicated to you.

this was what happened when we went to get your sweater from A&F.

we walked into the store ( i don't understand why A&F shops have to be so dark and overflowing with cologne. ) and started looking at the tags of all the sweaters and realised that there's no name to these sweaters. they all go by number codes! so we went to ask a lady if she could help us.

she told us that she had no idea what we were talking about cos all stuff that comes to the store don't come with a name on it. so we were about to give up when my mom decided to ask the lady if they had a store catalog. she told us no. at that same time, one of her colleagues came over and told her that she suspects that two guys were trying to steal something from the store. so our lady told her to watch them but she refused to. ( why? i don't know. ) so our lady told her to help us and then she would go and watch them.

lady #2 went into the back to look for the catalog that the staff use to check stock while we waited outside. we saw the two guys that she was talking about and they really were acting kinda shaddy. when she came out with the catalog, she had to slowly search that thick file ( which was thicker than a dictionary guan! ) to look for the matching sweater to the matching name you gave us. took a while.

i think while waiting, one of the two guys tried to leave the store but got stop by one of the guys working there. they took him to the back and searched him. when his friend saw that he was taken, he immediately tried to leave the shop but lady #1 was hot on his heels. when she stopped him, she shouted at him that he was forever banned from the shop. then he went on to defend himself and all which was totally stupid cos EVERYONE ( not that there were many people, just the four staff, my mom, sis and I ) knew he was sooo guilty. turns out that this guy used to work at that A&F and everytime, he would bring friends to the shop. probably always attempting to steal something.

turns out, his friend did steal a bracelet and something else. what happened to him after that, we don't know. but they were kinda dumb. it was at a time when the mall was super empty. there were so few customers, duhhh the staff was going to notice if you were to do something wrong, especially when they know you and are wary of you! the best part was the accessory section was right in front of cash register so someone can always see you! with such odds against you, you've got to be pretty stupid to steal right?!

so anyway, back to the part which i think that guan, you would be most concerned with, the lady #2 did manage to find that Abby sweater in her catalog and they did have it in the store. so my mom is bringing it back for you. nice sweater by the way. just so you know, we got you the red one. but it was placed so high up that one of them had to get a ladder to get it down. you basically got the whole shop working for your little sweater. haha. one to look for the catalog, one to ring the sale up and one to get the ladder. the forth one was busy watching the thief. hope you like it!!

sam i'm so sorry but i've yet to find your dad's casing. I haven't finish searching the stores yet so if your dad still wants it in may, i'll go look for it.
