Mariah stops for a moment and gives a sign to her bodyguards to back off....
Burkhard? Is that you? What are you doing here? I recognized you by...you know, your hands full of heavy callouses....
She shivers...
Looks at his hands and grins.
Perhaps I could get the name of your manicurist.
Actually I am here to buy and item like the one you have in your hand. The weeks been hectic and today is my nephews birth day. His heart is set on a Leggo construction set, be tragic if he was disappointed especially since he is suffering through the measles.
Looks more then a little heart broken about it.
Mariah playing the fool, gives a soft smile and says while looking at her watch...
I'm sorry I can't stay longer but I am in a rush...go and look over there if you can see the toy you are looking for....
She quickly starts walking towards the cashier...
Stepping after Mariah he reaches out and taps her on the shoulder. After he can not be shaken off that easily.
Marhiah.... I do hate to impose on anyone, but may I ask you a quick question as it is of the up most importance. I do apologize as I know you are in a rush.
Still with a smile on his face he notes the other gent has been noting the conversation and ponders why; while waiting for a response to his question.

A sound comes over the intercom of the Store:
"Shoppers, we will be closing in the next fifteen minutes!"
GM: Once you reach page six we will close this Story and Vote.
Seeing she is almost avoiding his prompt he braces for a direct assault.
Mariah you are a person of great stature in the community and I bet you would like to get more good publicity. I have and idea that just might benefit us both.... It involves that Lego set under your arm.
There would be no cost to your self at all.
Smiles brightly and has a twinkle in his eye.
Well quickly are you interested? After all you do have an up coming movie right and any good exposer would surely benefit ticket sales at this time right?
I am sure you can imagine photographers hanging on your every word, who knows maybe you could even make front page!
