The elderly woman , seeing his youthful face contrasted with his snow white hair , teared up .
Son , dont worry , take my phone and make your call , she said gently .
Duncan dialed Audreys number , but it came up as an Invalid number .
Frustrated , he tried dialing again , changing a few digits , convinced that he had simply remembered it incorrectly .
This time , the phone connected , but a mans voice answered , informing him that hed dialed the wrong number .
Panic gripped him , and Duncan started pacing in circles , unsure of what to do next .
At that moment , a woman approached him .
Excuse me , sir , could you please step aside ? Her voice was soft and pleasant , and as Duncan turned to look at her , his heart nearly stopped she looked exactly like his Audrey .
Overcome with emotion , Duncan pulled her into his arms , tears of joy streaming down his face .
Audrey , I finally found you ! Please dont leave me again .
Im so afraid … afraid that Ill lose you forever .
I cant live without you .
The woman was completely taken aback , struggling against him , her face filled with confusion .
Hey ! What are you doing , you pervert ? Let go of me ! Im not who youre looking for ! Youve got the wrong person ! No , I havent ! Youre my Audrey ; I know Im not wrong Duncan held her even tighter , unwilling to let go .
A small crowd began to gather around them .
Girl , dont fight with your husband in public .
Its obvious hes been worried sick about you .
Go home with him , one of the store assistants said , clearly moved by Duncans distressed appearance and prematurely grayed hair .
The woman , now at a loss for words , felt trapped .
No one believed her , and everyone assumed they were a couple in the middle of a spat .
The truth was , she did know about Audrey .
The name was notorious in the city Audrey had died , and after her death , a man named Duncan had married her in a bizarre posthumous ceremony .

But there was something different about him he seemed a bit out of touch with reality .
Well , if that was the case , why not play along ? thought Lucy Clark .
