Handbag

I bought a birthday handbag from a department store. Risky.... but my record was good. She loved the bag, but the colour was wrong. To be returned.

Days later, in the same store, she saw a similar handbag in the right colour.... just one... on special offer. But I hadn't brought bag 1, so I bought bag 2. She would take it to a party that Sunday.

But they'd left the security tag on. Today I returned it. The alarm sounded as I entered. Everyone looked at me suspiciously. I felt guilty, but why?

(What if I'd lost the receipt?)
