Knock Knock

Ah, Carrol, the car was probably ready.

“Come in,” I said and the door opened, revealing Carrol in her too tight shirt.
“The car is ready sir,” She said, “The butler is ready to drive you to the mall.”

I nodded, “Thank you.” I said in my formal voice. As I left I heard her say, “Have fun!” A little too hopefully. I’ll make note to fire her later.

I walked to the black SUV at the front of the building and opened the door and got in the passenger seat. The butler never spoke and had always been uncomfortable whenever spoken to, so not a word was passed as we drove.

“We arrived,” The butler said, he had a fancy British accent, “You can go back and relax now, I’ll call you when I’m done shopping.” I told him. He looked at me, surprised that I didn’t want to drag him around the mall.

He nodded hesitantly and got back into the car, driving off.
I watch him go before I entered the mall, looking around for stores to go into.

I was about to go into a clothing store, but stopped, I didn’t know what George would want, or would like to wear.
“Fuck…” I mumbled to myself, pulling my phone out of my back pocket and dialing Darryl.

“Pick up, pick up, pick up…” I muttered, urgently staring at my phone, I probably looked like a madman.
I heard the phone pick up and I sighed in relief, “Hello?” Darryl asked on the other side of the line.

“Hey Darryl, I want to get a gift for George to make it up to him, but I don’t know what he likes and what his clothing style is, do you have any ideas on what George may like?” I said, wearily looking around, almost as if George was going to jump out behind a manikin and stab me.

“Hm, you should get him hoodies or something, that is normally what he wears, but I do recommend getting him actual clothes, hoodies and jeans are all he wears these days.” Darryl answered after thinking for a moment.

“Okay thanks, helps a lot.” I said quickly before hanging up. Newsflash, that didn’t help. I sighed, might as well figure it out on my own.

I first went into a store to get George some hoodies. I didn’t know his size so I decided to get him my size hoodies, I hope he liked WAY oversized hoodies because that is what he was getting.

“Okay… time to get him actual clothes, like Darryl suggested…” I muttered to myself, heading into one of the more fashionable stores.

I looked around, but I didn’t know what to get him. I stopped for a moment, if I didn’t know what he would like, what’s the harm in getting him what I think would look good on him? I smiled to myself before pulling out my phone and typing a list of things to get George.

- A bunch of graphic tees, different colors
- Plain button through hooded shirt
- Button ups
- Crewneck sweaters
- Black and Tan cargo pants
- Sweatpants
- Solid corduroy loose pants
- Rings

I smiled at my list, I knew for a fact that he would look good in those items.

I ran to a couple of stores to go pick out the items and before I knew it, I was carrying ten bags of clothes. I fumbled with my phone before calling the butler to come pick me up. When he arrived, he saw all of my bags and his eyes blew wide. He helped me get all of the clothes into the trunk of the car and we drove off to my mansion.
