After a long two days, Arthur was finally on his way back home, the Big Apple. The days he had spent away were mainly on a business trip, as he says. Arthur wasn't really a salesman, he just was the one who transported things to and from Fairchild's Jewelry Company. He didn't have the brains nor the personality to sell. This particular time, Arthur had been taking specific diamonds down to a trader, three states away. It all went well, Arthur had the money and he took good care of the diamonds.
At the train station, Arthur was waiting with his briefcase for his train. The platform looked fairly empty, so hopefully Arthur could jump himself an empty carriage and maybe take a nap or something. It looked like it was about to rain, so Arthur pulled on the gray blazer, placing the briefcase tightly between his polished shoes. It hung a little over his slim frame, but it would protect his white shirt from getting wet. Once it was on, the train steamed it's way into the platform in a cloud of smoke. Arthur quickly collected the brief case and waited for the train to stop.
Once he was on safely, Arthur looked left, then right to watch where others were going. Most went further up, so Arthur found himself walking in the opposite direction, looking for somewhere empty. In the last carriage, Arthur spotted nobody and assumed it was empty. He finally sat down next to the window and placed the briefcase next to him, wedging it between hiss thigh and the window frame. He opened it quickly to pull out the newspaper and placed it down on the table in front of him. Before he could get reading, Arthur rested his head against the cold glass, closing his eyes. If he wasn't disturbed, Arthur was ready for sleep.
Another day, another half dollar. Evelyn was sitting quietly behind her desk in the library. Her hair was neatly tied back, keeping her long locks away from her face as she read. It was only small, the Public Library was where people went if they wanted a book, not the small time place she worked at. Currently, Evelyn sat quietly, reading Great Expectations. A book she had read before, but Evelyn was pretty sure she had read everything in the library, anything to take her mind away from stamps and paperwork.
She eyed every person who walked in with alight suspicion and interest. Her eyes silently judged everyone who entered. It made her wonder who they were and why they chose to come here. Maybe it was closer, but there was a chance that they wouldn't find what they were looking for.
Nevertheless, it meant business. Evelyn diverted her eyes back to the pages, focusing on the words. She pulled the sleeves of her green knit over her hands as she read. She turned the pages with bitten fingertips, looking up as the little bell on the door ringed, signalling somebody had entered again.
