Sitting at a small table in a quaint little cafe Claire gazed out the window. A book sat on the table in front of her, he hand keeping her page. But she became mesmerized when a strong gust of wind blew leaves around in a whirlwind. Claire brought her cup of coffee to her mouth and took a sip, the warm liquid comforting her against the memory of the chilly air outside.
Her eyes slowly feel back to the paragraph she had left on. It was a biography of Marie Antoinette, her third time reading it. The woman's life interested Claire so much, though, that she kept coming back to it. She had a habit of reading and re-reading books, catching different details each time. And the stories got better and better each timeshe learned more.
Again Claire's eyes snapped up, this time facing the front counter. A woman had dropped her tray of drinks she was about to serve, Claire didn't catch why. She thought about getting up to help clean the mess but two other employees were soon on it. The woman responsible was a deep red and apologizing profusely. Cracking her knuckles once, something she did almost subconsciously, Claire sighed. She hated to see people make mistakes like that. It was so public and embarrassing. Her eyes wandered around the cafe, sunlight streaming in. She took in the different people standing around before returning, once again, to her book.
