Kaia was dejected to see that the store is open for business with a big sign 'up to 50% discount on selected items'.
She saw three salespeople inside, busying themselves with polishing the glass and chatting in a good mood while entertaining customers who came in. She couldn't hear what they were saying, but they were smiling like yesterday didn't happen.
Kaia felt small and insignificant. Her world collapsed, yet everyone continued with their day, not sparing her a single thought.
She focused on observing salespeople whose faces she didn't see before. It was two guys and one woman, all looking dashing in white uniforms with black accents that all customer-facing employees of Blanc are wearing.
'That was me, yesterday…', Kaia thought while dejection swelled inside her.
