"Sure. Why don't you kids get out and do a little window-shopping. I'll meet you back here in about an hour. I got to check on my boat."
Mr. Pryde pulled over to one side of the road and the three children got out. He waved to them before he took off down the road, disappearing around a corner. Samantha stood with Prudence and Wendell on the side of the road, in awe of how large and grand Seabrooke appeared in comparison with Eternity.
A sharp pain stabbed Samantha's head. She cried out, Prudence and Wendell grabbing her by the arms before she fell. "Samantha, what's wrong?" Prudence asked.
"I'm not sure," Samantha said. The pain subsided and they pressed on to a shop. Prudence threw herself against the display window to gape at the mannequin dressed in a glittering black dress. "Designs by Suzie," Samantha whispered. She looked up at the sign over the door, which read, 'Designs by Suzie.' The pain in Samantha's head returned.
"Can we go inside?" Prudence asked.
"I don't want to go in there. That's for girls," Wendell said. "It's not like they'll have anything for you anyway."
"They will so!" Prudence shot back. "We can probably find you a nice dress too, Wendy."
"Don't call me that!"
"Can't you two be quiet?" Samantha said. She rubbed her temples, the pain growing worse, to the point where she could hardly see. "Stay here and wait for Mr. Pryde."
"Sam-" She didn't hear the rest of Prudence's question. She bolted down the sidewalk, trying to escape the pain.
