Covent Garden Flowers, Friday
It was probably silly to keep coming back here, but Peter really did like taking care of things, and the smell of greenery. His nerves were a bit on edge today; there was weird, and then there was screaming. He'd heard enough of that to last several lifetimes, and being in a place with enough of a seal to block it out and things to soak up the rest of it helped.
He was cleaning off the counter with some polish he'd found when a man, looking a bit harried but still with a huge smile, came in. With boxes. And a delivery slip. Peter tried to explain that no, he really wasn't the owner, and he hadn't ordered anything, but every time he protested, the guy opened the door to confer with someone outside, and there was screaming, and in the end, Peter just gave in and signed for whatever it was.
It turned out to be a lot of flowers and a good assortment of plants and herbs, too.
Well, he couldn't just leave them in the boxes, could he?
It looked like the flower shop was open for business. Sort of.
