That rickety white house on the corner of Elm and Main, wasn’t a general store like the sign on the porch said.

Her gold-plated spoon clanked against the hand-painted cup as visible steam rolled into the air. Hot tea was her favorite though most of the household preferred caffeinated coffee.

I was careful not to spill my coffee as I slid the glass door open. I walked across the faded wooden deck, the creaking noise didn’t bother me, not even at this height.
