"Tell me about these shoes"
He asked the woman leaning across the back of her chair, looking utterly bored.
"Please" He continued
"I don't have them in your size" She sneered.
"I don't want to wear them. But would you tell me about them if I agree to buy them?
forget it you don't need my patronage, I'm sorry to have bothered you" Turning toward the door, opening it and walking out

The bored woman goes back to leaning over the back of her chair, staring at the clock and waiting for her shift to end.
"Old freak!" She huffs,
A few minutes pass, bringing
her a few minutes and dollars towards the few minutes of escape from her real life and she imagines
A woman walks past the shop's window with the bored expression on her face that she is just now aware of. The woman stops
at the window and looks around, fixates on a pair of shoes that are just out of the sales woman's line of site. The woman at the window
pulls out her phone and snaps a picture of the shoes she's focused on. Looks at the image on her phone, and snaps another one.
Looks at that one, smiles, closes her phone and walks away.
The young sales woman, looks up at the clock and realizes that it is time to go. She locks the door, turns off the "Open" sign
Closes out the register, checks in with her manager, signs her time sheet, puts on her coat and waits by the front door to be
let out for the night.

While she's leaning against wall, she notices a note card stuck in one of these shoes.
Will the woman who wears these shoes, please tell what they intend to do in them.
