Thessaly’s Prelude
Saturday, August 26th, 2006
Grammy died three weeks ago today, she died of natural causes in her sleep. She was decent age approaching eighty, and had lived a good life. Raised several beautiful children, and somehow balanced life as one of the Awakened. It must not have been easy but somehow she succeeded.
She ran this book store in her later years after Grandpa Joe passed on. He was a sleepwalker, and a had a talent for telling outrageous stories to most folks, though to those in the know, they sensed a kernel of truth. But now the store was quiet, it was early morning, and the town was quiet. Main Street was quiet, Old Man Peters was walking his dog, the dog was probably as old as Old Man Peters; or so one would think.
The bell on the door rings as it opens. The first customer of the day, a young woman that Thessaly does not recognize. Not a regular, maybe a prospective student? She wore a loose blue top with low cut jeans and tennis shoes. Her dark hair was in braids and she had light caramel colored skin, with soft nervous green eyes.
She walks in and does not make eye contact with Thessaly and instead goes right for a shelf looking totally lost.
