Tess hadn't had a child show up this time; part of her was grateful for that fact and part of her missed the son she'd had. That she would never have unless she went home. And while she missed home fiercely, it wasn't missing home so much as it was missing some of the people. But that wasn't going to help her at the moment, so she was just pushing those thoughts aside for the time being and trying to focus on something -- anything -- else.
It would probably come back to bite her in the ass later, she was sure, but that was a problem for future!Tess. At the moment, she was ignoring things in favor of... well, she'd wound up at the bookstore and wasn't entirely sure it was where she'd been planning on going. She wasn't going to complain, though, not when it involved books. She'd always loved reading.
She wasn't looking for anything in particular at the moment, though, which meant that she was just kind of wandering aimlessly -- which in turn meant that of course she inevitably got in someone's way. Well, at least she hadn't actually run into them. Could have been worse.
"Sorry," she apologized with a sheepish little smile as she stepped aside.
