Chapter 235: Chapter 237 Trying on Clothes

James Brown and Sarah Utah finished their cold drinks, then together they arrived at a nearby large shopping mall, after walking a few steps, Sarah whispered to James Brown: "Big Brother Brown, can I... can I make a request?"

"Make a request? What kind of request, let’s hear it?" James Brown looked at Sarah with a smiling face.

Sarah’s pretty face turned red, and she softly said: "Can I... hold Big Brother Brown’s arm?"

James didn’t immediately agree, making Sarah extremely embarrassed, her head lowered, her face flushed as if to bleed, she stammered, "I... I mean no harm, I just want to..."

"Hehe, with such a good thing, how could I refuse? Just as long as you don’t say I’m taking advantage of you." James Brown took the initiative, holding Sarah’s hand.

Sarah’s body stiffened, she raised her head abruptly, looking at James Brown with surprise, seeing the brilliant smile on his face, she immediately tightened her grip on his hand.

James felt a tremor in his heart, regretting having agreed to Sarah’s request. Her request clearly had a hint of flirtation, and by agreeing he was giving her false hopes. But in such situation, James found it too cruel to refuse.

The two walked hand-in-hand from the first floor to the third floor. Sarah remained silent the whole time, not looking at anything. James, seeing her blissfully sweet, almost dizzy demeanor, couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and guilt. To break this overly intimate atmosphere, he laughed and said, "Here’s the women’s clothing section. Aren’t you going to take a look?"

"Ah!" Sarah gasped, her face flushed with embarrassment as she quickly released James’s hand, saying: "Then I will take a look."

James chuckled and said, "Let’s see."

After visiting one shop, Sarah and James walked out and said, "Let’s check another one." But after they took a few steps, she tentatively grabbed James’s arm again.

James could only pretend not to notice. Making a protest at this moment would deeply hurt a sensitive girl like Sarah. Since he had already agreed to accompany her for a fun day out, they might as well fully enjoy it, he turned his head and smiled at her.

Sarah immediately felt greatly encouraged, boldly sliding her arm through James’s, hooking it together.

"I think that store’s clothes look nice, should suit your style, let’s check it out," James pointed to a dress shop.

Sarah was even happier, not only was James accompanying her shopping, but he was also giving her advice, which was truly rare.

Walking into the shop, Sarah was immediately attracted; the store sold long dresses and sundresses, which she liked to wear.

At this point, James fully played his role, helped Sarah choose dresses, and his taste was actually quite good; Sarah really liked a few styles he picked out.

After telling the salesperson her desired sizes, the salesperson found several pieces for Sarah. But because the store was crowded, Sarah had to try them on by herself.

The fitting room was almost full, only the farthest one was free, so Sarah had to go into that one to change.

The fitting room didn’t have a door, just a long curtain, but it completely covered the inside view, which means there was no opportunity for any peeping tom to sneak in, so, women were quite free and comfortable trying on clothes here.

Sarah just went in, then quickly came out, waved at James, looked around, noticed that the salespeople were all busy, no one attended her, then looked at James again, her face blushing, she waved at him again.

James came near Sarah and asked, "What’s up?"

Sarah with a red face said, "Big Brother Brown, there are no hangers inside, nor any chairs, so... you have to hold my clothes."

"No problem." James readily agreed, taking a few pieces of clothing Sarah was holding.

Sarah took one set from James’s hand, then swept back into the fitting room, soon sounds of rustling clothes could be heard.

These sounds instantly made James picture Sarah changing, his mind filling with all sorts of jumbled thoughts, wondering about Sarah’s features and skin tone.

Shaking his head, James chased away these thoughts. Even though Sarah had feelings for him, he considered her just as a good friend, and such thoughts felt like disrespecting her.

Not long after, Sarah came out wearing a light green dress, her long hair smoothly spread over her shoulders, her delicate, tender face complementing the light green dress perfectly. The outfit matched her beautifully, embellishing her ordinary appearance to an even lovelier degree.

"Big Brother Brown, does it look good?" Seeing the admiration in James Brown’s eyes, Sarah already knew how fitting the dress was, but she couldn’t help asking.

"It looks great. You should wear skirts like this more often." James Brown immediately gave an undisguised compliment.

"Usually at work, I need to maintain a certain image. Wearing skirts like this makes me look younger, that way..."

"Hehe, that makes sense. You’re a manager now, after all; you need some authority. But after work, it’s perfect to wear skirts like this."

Sarah smiled sweetly, "Alright, when I go out with Big Brother Brown, I’ll wear skirts."

"Go look at yourself in the mirror." James Brown chuckled and followed Sarah to the shop’s mirror.

Sarah glanced at herself twice, still holding the clothes she had taken off, the effect wasn’t too clear. She turned her head to look at James Brown, somewhat shyly saying, "Big Brother Brown, could you hold these for me?"

"It’s nothing." James Brown took the clothes from Sarah, a slightly loose T-shirt, and a long skirt, still carrying a faint fragrance, easily leading one to stray thoughts.

A girl’s removed clothes, especially the ones worn close to the body like those in summer, would usually only be handled by very intimate people. Sarah is typically cautious with such matters, if it weren’t for James Brown, she wouldn’t have done this.

Having handed the clothes to James Brown, Sarah looked in the mirror again, but her gaze involuntarily drifted towards James Brown. She noticed that his nose seemed to twitch, as if he was sniffing the scent on her clothes. This made Sarah extremely embarrassed, yet a sweet feeling surged in her heart; it showed that James Brown was not entirely indifferent towards her.

"Big Brother Brown, I’m going to try something else." Sarah was in a good mood, and even more lively at this point, pulling James Brown back to the changing room. Although there were other changing rooms available, Sarah chose the one furthest inside.

Having changed into another outfit, Sarah handed the light green dress she just took off to James Brown and twirled in front of him, saying, "Big Brother Brown, how about this one?"

It was a two-piece dress; the top looked somewhat like a little vest, and the lower part was a white long skirt that reached the floor. As Sarah twirled, her skirt flared gracefully like a white-dressed fairy.

James Brown immediately praised, "This set also looks good. Sarah, you really suit skirts. Seeing you in a skirt makes other women pale in comparison."

Sarah, even happier, laughed, "Big Brother Brown, you’re teasing me. If your girlfriend heard this, she’d give you a hard time."

James Brown laughed heartily and said, "She won’t get mad. But now that you mention it, I really would like to see what she looks like in a skirt."

Emma Campbell and Sarah had similar dispositions, both delicate and refined. Emma is a bit taller than Sarah, with long, straight legs and a slender waist. She’d surely look good in a skirt too.

Sarah quickly tried on another piece, but soon after entering, she uttered a low cry. James Brown, clearly hearing it from outside, sounded like it was painful, but wasn’t sure what had happened and quickly asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing... It’s nothing." Sarah responded, yet she didn’t come out for a long time.

"What exactly happened? Why aren’t you coming out?" James Brown asked again.

"Big Brother Brown, can you... can you come in and help me?" Sarah called from inside.

"Go in?" James Brown paused for a moment, then immediately parted the curtain and went in. He didn’t believe that a girl like Sarah would try to seduce him; it must have been some trouble.

His guess was correct; Sarah’s hair and the zipper at the back of her dress were caught together. Because it was on her back, she couldn’t pull it up or down. As soon as James Brown came in, she said in an embarrassed whisper, "Big Brother Brown, I..."

James Brown chuckled, "Stop moving; it will only make it worse. I’ll help you untie it." As he spoke, he stuffed the clothes he was holding into Sarah’s arms and moved behind her.

The zipper was half-pulled, slightly open at the top, exposing Sarah’s snow-white neck and a small portion of her back. For girls in summer, the usual clothes might expose much more skin than now.

But men are like that; when women reveal more, they focus on the unrevealed parts, and when women reveal less, they focus on the revealed parts. The sensory stimulation for men remains roughly the same.

It’s like when women wear skirts every day, you notice their calves, arms, and when wearing swimsuits, I believe ninety percent of men will focus on the bikini. Don’t believe me? Go see for yourself.
