Bound By Chaos
So I finally look up and see an eight-year-old girl annihilate my front display like she’s reenacting Fast & Furious: Bookstore Drift.
Books everywhere.
Glorious chaos.
Behind her is a woman. A beautiful woman.
A diner-uniform, exhausted beyond salvation, mascara-smudged, hair-falling-out-of-the-bun-but-still-somehow-sexy beautiful woman.
She stops dead when the books hit the floor.
“Oh my God—no, no, no—I’m so sorry—she’s just—today has been—I—please don’t kick us out—”
The panic in her voice is pure, distilled chaos.
