Wife drove us to CVS, pulled into our parking spot. Almost immediately a 20ish hispanic man pulls in beside us.
Wife took a few extra seconds to gather her things, then we got out. Man beside us is still sitting in his car, head down.
In the store, my wife went down an aisle, I stayed at the end of the aisle near the front of the store. Suddenly I hear "Excuse me," turn to see the same young man waiting to pass by. He had plenty of room, but whatever... I said, "Sorry" and moved into the aisle with my wife.
Seconds later I see him in the adjacent aisle, focusing on us. When he sees me looking at him he turns away and aimlessly walks a few steps in both directions in his aisle before eventually entering an additional aisle over. I moved closer to my wife then looked over again at the young man... looking hard at us again. This time I lock eyes with him, making sure he knows I noticed his stares. He immediately leaves the aisle and I loose sight of him. I moved around a little to find him to no avail. Never once did I see him look at any merchandise on the shelves.
'"C'mon," I took my wife's arm and led her to the back of the store near the pharmacy. She was understandably confused so I explained what was happening while continuing my scan of the store. It was then I saw the young man hurrying out the front door.
Wife asks me, "Are you carrying?"
"Of course."
"On you now?"
"Yes."
We were walking to the checkout counter while I'm giving my wife more details when the same guy comes hustling down the adjacent aisle in the opposite direction. Again I locked eyes with him and he quickly looked away, jerking his cell phone to his ear. We paid, left the store, got in our car. "Hang on, Hon."
Sure enough, the kid comes out the door. When he sees us sitting there, he abruptly stops and again raises his cell phone.
We pulled into the parking lot of a convenience store across the road. The guy waits for a few minutes. The gets in his car and drives slowly past the convenience store. We stayed there 'till he was completely out of sight then left.
Wife asks me, "Call the police?"
"He's done nothing illegal... yet."
We saw no more of him.
I've racked my brains trying to understand what his motives were and why he was checking us out so intently. My wife does irritate other drives when she's behind the wheel, but I was not aware of anything she had done on our drive to the store that would set someone off. And we certainly weren't in a good place for this guy to try robbing/mugging us.
Very confused, and a bit rattled.
