"Shhhh, Emma! We don't want to get caught again!"
"But I'm hungry, Bubby! Hurry up and open it!"
This was the conversation I overheard as I walked into the restroom of the store where I work. Peeking into an unlocked stall I am shocked to see two small children with a tiny bag of chips.
"Uh-Ummm, hello" squeaked the bruised little boy, as the tiny girl with him cried silently, "I-I can explain!"
"Shh, guys. It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you... Why don't you hand me the chips and we can talk?" I spoke quietly, trying not to frighten the poor kids any more than they already were.
A/N:
Very short, I know. Sorry... But at least it's a start. I'll get the next chapter up ASAP.
