Turtle & Canary; Monday [04/26].
It was with great trepidation that Summer went into the store that day, unable to shake the feeling that when she walked through those doors, something awful was waiting for her. Granted, she felt with Apu and his obsession with wierd holidays, and the store's tendency to stock itself with an excess of whatever, this was a very understandable and well-founded concern.
What wasn't nearly as understandable and well-founded was the fact that she was extremely worried that, whatever it was, she wouldn't be able to handle it herself, and that, of course, the one time she needed Shunsui to step up and actually be responsible for this place because she didn't have the ability, it was while he was back in his weird afterlife world or whatever it was for the next two weeks because the semester was over and that meant he actually had to go do his other job for a little while until the summer session started.
Which was, of course, ridiculous, because Shunsui not being here for two weeks meant absolutely nothing in this place being able to run smoothly, because Shunsui didn't actually do anything around here except drink all the sake and mess up the backroom, but that kind of logic had no place in Summer's brain that day, apparently.
And of course it was the end of the semester, so something was definitely going to happen. She just knew it was, it always did, and it was enough to make her wonder if she should head home for the next two weeks, too, but the logic inherent in the fact that she was significantly more likely to die tragically and horribly and in ways no one would ever realize or care about back home than she was on Fandom, at least, was very present and accounted for.
She figured there was maybe a 92% chance something horrible and tragic might happen to her if she stayed here.
If she went home, that percentage, was, like, a hundred and ten.
When she got into the store and found that nothing weird was going on and everything was in order and seemed to be working fine, that only made her suspicion worse, because that clearly meant whatever it was, it was building up to it, and she was so not ready.

Turtle & Canary is open! And maybe a bit paranoid...
