The Actor's Contract
The freak steps forward as if he’s getting ready to grope me, and I shield my sister behind me again.
Then luck throws me a little bone, and my apple green suitcase comes traveling around the corner, rocking like a boat on the conveyor. I let out the breath I didn’t even know I was holding, and lean unladylike over the carousel, my thick-soled converses barely touching the ground, as I reach for our luggage. I feel uncomfortable, infiltrated, violated, as if the whole world is eating up my behind. Or worse … taking pictures of it.
I feel sick, and nearly throw out my back just to get the bloody suitcase on the ground.
