Wrapping Paper
I looked at my reflection in the mirror as I fastened a small diamond earring into my ear with a click. I smiled, fondly remembering when my sister, Jen, bought them for me 3 years ago for Christmas. A sharp pang seized my heart at the thought of her. Ignoring it, I scowled as I tried to smooth out the annoying wrinkles in my modest black dress. If only I owned an iron. Oh well. I left my vanity and went towards the front room and grabbed my purse from where I discarded it on the couch the night before. I was checking the contents and readying myself to leave for the memorial service when the doorbell rang. Throwing the bag back to the couch, I opened the door.

I’m in a checkout line. I’m sweating. The two go hand in hand. But this checkout line in particular is worse. To start, it’s long and I’m at the front. The cashier is overwhelmed and so am I. Being here makes it hard to breathe. It’s time to pay and I miscalculated the cost. I don’t have enough cash, and my card is in the car.
