[The People's Market]A First Time for Everything(Caddy)

[Cassidy Finch]

As Caddy approached Velvet, she held out a single glove. The girl frowned down at it for a few seconds before she explained, "I brought you gloves, but one disappeared. I figured you need them today, if you don't want to keep hiding that thing." She practically forced the article of clothing into Velvet's hand, and she slipped it onto the branded hand immediately. The slave knew she would stand out a little with only a single glove, but it was a better choice than being singled out as a slave. The slave accepted the girl's gift with a grateful smile, "Thank you, Caddy." She said as she admired her new glove. It looked very out of place without a mate, especially on someone dressed as Velvet was. That didn't stop her from appreciating it however; the thing would definitely come in handy. She would have to find a way to repay Caddy, both for the gift and for her teaching. Unfortunately, slaves did not have much in the way of wealth, so she was not sure exactly how she would accomplish that. "I hope you have an idea of what you need, because today we are . . . going shopping." Caddy continued on, placing emphasis on the last word. Immediately afterward, the girl turned her head to the side and stuck her tongue out. Velvet followed Caddy's gaze and noticed the man from before glaring at them. She fought the instinct to go hide in the crowd; if she were going to pass for a free woman, she had to act like one. Velvet looked back to Caddy and said thoughtfully, "Maybe a pair of shoes?" That was one thing the slave sorely needed. Though she was long used to the feeling of tramping up and down city streets barefoot, the woman didn't like having to dodge around the hundreds of feet that surrounded her to avoid having her toes trampled.
