Sometimes Souvenirs are not just simple mementos
The signboard above the shop proudly displayed the name “The Classic Lady.”
Without further delay, she pushed open the door, and the bell chimed announcing her arrival.
Upon hearing the bell chime the old lady turned around with a warm smile saying, “Benvenuti”. Spotting Minerva at the door her face lit up with recognition, instantly recalling Minerva’s earlier visit for filming.
Despite not being fluent in English, the old lady possessed the ability to accommodate English speakers and express her thoughts effectively.
Minerva swiftly walked past the vintage wind chimes hanging down from the ceiling, making her way towards the old lady retaining the smile on her face.
“Granny! Could you show me the mirror from before? The one with ornate carvings of flowers and creepers.”
Minerva was attracted to it at first sight. She decided she had to buy that mirror when she saw it before, but had to wait until her filming for the day was done.
At the mention of the mirror, the smile on the old lady’s face slightly faded. The previous enthusiasm in her voice was gone.
“You sure? It very dangerous.”
She looked down thinking something and shook her head
“I no selling the mirror. Placed in display on mistake” and turned to walk back to the counter.
Why did the old lady say it was more dangerous? The answer lies within the pages of the full story on Wattpad. Curiosity piqued? Unravel the mystery now!
