      A shop? 

      Really?

      Weird? Reece said to herself.

      She read the sign. It said The Husband Shop. 

      Courtney said it was a place where she could meet men, she could choose a man at the end of the day.

      Reece welcomed this new experience, it is better than having to date people then finding out they didn’t really like you. 

      Reece showed the security guard her code. 

      He scanned it on gadget in his hand. 

      His eyes twinkled with mischief. 

      Have a good day Miss Robinson! The security guard said. 

      Reece
