Carrie really shouldn’t have been wearing new three-inch heels. Or rather, she shouldn’t have been wearing new three-inch heels to walk to a class that was at least halfway across campus from her dorm. Curse those shoes that went perfectly with her outfit. She did quite well for the first few blocks, but after passing one of the science buildings it became painfully obvious this wasn’t the best jaunt to break in her new shoes. By the time she reached the theater building, her feet were throbbing and sitting through a fifty minute class did nothing to make them feel better. So Carrie carefully gathered her things and started making the long (at least in these shoes) back to her dorm where she planned on changing into some ballet flats. And perhaps she would throw the heels into the back of her closet, never t be worn again. It was a perfect plan, but unfortunately a raised portion of the sidewalk had other plans. She immediately started wobbling when her toes hit the uneven pavement and it didn’t take long for her to topple forward. Hitting the pavement with both of her knees, the various notebooks and folders she was carrying flew out of her hands and scattered across the sidewalk. Carrie sniffed a few times as she stood up and did her best to not cry when she surveyed the damage: two bloody knees, torn skirt hem, and a mess of important papers. “Oh -- Fudgesicles,” she spat with a stamp of her foot. |
