– Miss Spikes, there’s a letter for you. – Frank-the concierge at our building-stopped me when I opened the front door and strode briskly to the elevator.

– Me? I walked over to Frank. – Thank you.

– What are you reading now?

I tucked the letter into the inside pocket of my bag and turned the book in my hand and looked at the man.

– Roman.

– Fascinating? It looks like a children’s book.

– Maybe. I just got it from the library, so I don’t know if it’s exciting or not yet. Thanks again for the letter, Frank.

The man nodded back at me, and I stepped into the elevator.

Aunt Jo called me just as I took off my cherry-colored wool coat and hung it up in the hallway.

– Yes?

– Hello, Violet! – My aunt had the soft, purring voice I’d grown to adore.

– Hello, Auntie.

– I finally got through to you. You’re not ignoring me, are you?

– No, you don’t!

– When loved ones avoid communicating with their relatives, it is very bad.

I went to the refrigerator and took out a bottle of water and took a big sip.
