Unlicensed Babysitter
"Dress red like blood, hair matted down with darkness."
Eyebrow raised, I look at Emma's reflection. "You read way too much."
"Maybe so, but I'm not wrong. You look nice but like you could kill someone."
Turning around, I fix the thick straps of my dress. "Good. That's what I like to hear."
"What about your shoes?" Emma asks as I walk out of the bathroom. "Your sneakers aren't going to cut it."
I look down and wiggle my toes, then look at Emma's feet. She has on a pair of classy black laced heels, the same black as her dress, and they give her a bit of height. I probably should have noticed that her eyeline is above mine now.
