Book Haven, Wednesday 10AM-1PM

Tori opened the bookstore and set out tea, coffee and pastries for potential customers. Taking a seat behind the counter, she sighed.

Yes, she was missing Aiden and Kimberly terribly.

As hard as she tried, she couldn't really concentrate on her notes. Flipping through a notebook, she found a page with colored scribbles and 'I love you, mommy' written on it. Yeah, that just made her more melancholy.

But, she couldn't help but crack a smile at the thought of him running around, safe and sound back home. And to have gotten the chance to known both him and Kimberly made her feel a bit happier. It had been a great few days, that was for sure.

Angela stopped by the bookstore to look for a novel to distract her, and to say hi to her roommate. "Hey, Tori," she said, browsing the fiction.

Something drew her to the children's books.

"Hey Angela." Tori offered her a small smile. "Need any help?"

"It's going to sound kind of silly," Angela warned. "But -- well, do you have any really good children's books?"

Tori smiled brightly when shse heard Angela's request. "It's not silly at all." She shook her head, thinking of Aiden and made her way from behind the counter to help Angela.

Perusing the shelves, she found another section that had children's books. "We have these moddable titles, too. And I believe there's another section towards the back."

"Thanks," Angela said. She began browsing through the shelves, pulling down books she remembered from her childhood. "It's weird to already miss them, isn't it? The kids."

"You're welcome." Tori nodded, smiling slightly. "Yeah, it is." She sighed, agreeing with Angela. "I just wish they could've stayed a little bit longer, you know?"

"I do," Angela said. "I don't want a kid yet, but ..." she sighed. "Having them felt so right."

"You couldn't have said it any better." Tori admitted, with a sad smile.

Angela blushed as she moved to the counter with copies of a Dr. Seuss Book and The Babylon Play.

"What were yoours like?" she asked. "And I think I want these two books. Please."

Tori smiled, "Sure." She rang up the books and told Angela the handwavey amount.

"I had a son, Aiden and a daughter, Kimberly. Apparently she was both Conner and my daughter." Tori laughed a tiny bit at that. "She loved wearing green. It's her favorite color." Her eyes shone with pride and delight. "Aiden was adorable. He was so well behaved and cheerful. And all about surfing and motocross." Tori had to laugh at that. He took after her so much and she was thrilled about that. "What were yours like?"
