LA Mom is shopping at Costco with her 3-year-old when her daughter locks eyes on something she can’t see: ‘I don’t want to say mommy’

Imagine being at lunch, or in any public space, only to have someone come and hover a bit too close for comfort. That is exactly what happened to Mari, a Los Angeles-based author, nurse, and TikToker. While at a Costco, she was grabbing pizza and soft serve with her children when she noticed a man standing behind her. While she chose to ignore it, the video she uploaded to TikTok captured the moment her daughter chose not to.

The post is captioned, “My 3-Year-Old called out a creep at Costco/ Real Time spiritual protection.” It starts with Mari chatting with her daughter, Phoenix, who is babbling happily over her soft serve. As they are joking and laughing, the mood shifts quickly when she spots a man hovering behind her. Now, it should be noted that the man doesn’t do anything. Mari’s instincts kick in. Her smile dies, and she looks uncomfortable, noting on-screen, “Peeped it, Ho IS U Coo?” She just ignores him.
