Ellie was too busy making the bed to hear Christine leave. The sound of the door closing jolted Ellie back into the moment. "Miss?" she called out. There was no answer. Ellie went downstairs to the shop. "Miss?" Nothing but empty stacks. A quick check in the back.. nothing except that white fluff ball lay dozing on the desk. Ellie put her hand on the back of that chair with the rich dark fabric. Just one day ago, she was sitting in it hoping for a chance at a job, and now look at her. She had the place to herself for a moment. Filled with joy, Ellie twirled about on the spot before laughing aloud.
