Who: David Rose & Open What: Random encounter When: Monday late afternoon Where: All Good Things Soaps & Such Rating: Language and TBD
Losing a week, no matter the reason, had thrown David's schedule off. Now he was stuck putting out the display of hibiscus tea soap bars and the salted coconut hand scrub at the same time and it was almost leading to disaster.
Huffing at the indecency of it all, the sleeves of his shirt rolled up on his forearms, David continued setting out the row of soap bars while shooting a wilting glare at the offending jars of salted coconut scrub still in their cardboard box and yet to be put out. Setting the last of the bars down, he dusted his hands off and turned to the jars, sniffing one and moving a little ways down on the counter. The mingling scents were supposed to draw people into the store not have them running for the hills at the first whiff of hibiscus coconut scented torture. Ugh, and with the A/C vent directly overhead it was only a matter of time.
Reaching into the box, he picked out a few jars, and heard the bell over the door jingle and someone start to inevitably head in his direction. "Hello and welcome," he spat out with another sigh, setting the jars in a thick wicker basket. "Just look around or whatever."
