Most Expensive Item In Her Shop

Be careful with the head vase someone said.
I had no idea what a head vase was.
I walked past it several times, not really seeing it.
That’s it! My girlfriend pointed out.
That hideous thing?
Yes, that’s the most expensive item in her shop.
I thought someone must be smoking pot.
Five hundred and twenty-seven dollars for this ugly thing?
I imagine it will stay in this woman’s shop for a long time.
