Alex Distrusts

The old lady with cataract wasn't expecting anyone that afternoon. She was busy dusting her books as usual when the bell chimed, informing her that she had visitors.

The visitor she received wasn't like the other customers she had before. The blonde teenager looked very upper class and didn't seem like someone to appreciate her sad drip coffee brew or yellowing books. In fact, this visitor's sense of style was way too expensive to be found in a humble bookstore like hers. That bag alone was enough to pay rent for an entire month or more and the old lady trembled from the exertion at getting down from her step ladder to attend to this rich young lady.

"How can I help you?" she asked and Alex removed her sunglasses. She looked around at the bookstore and at the hunchbacked old lady.

"Is this Kat's Book & Coffee?" she asked and the old lady nodded.

"Indeed, it is. Are you looking for a book or coffee?"
