Short story – PART 2: Have You read this
before?
Before you read about Part 2, be sure to read where it all started with Short story – Did you hear about the kids outside the store?
As we had left off in the previous published post all of the
young boys were going into the store.
But you have no idea where this place is or what the store sells not
even an idea what it looks like.
Well that store is just like any bookstore we have read about with the
smell of books, a little dust here and there. There is new book smell in random areas mainly in the front
of the store.
Shortly after walking in the door had closed, that happened
rather abruptly and startled nearly all of us but Lee. He seemed to not bother with anything
going on around him and more focused on what was happening. I say it like that because he was
looking at the man that had welcomed us all into the store. He leaned over and told us in a clear
voice that was just above a whisper.
We all stopped chatting and looking and pointing at things. Seeing Lee looking at the man and a few
of us tapping others to look at Lee.
What stood out was this man dressed in jeans a T-shirt, but
why does that stand out? Because
in this bookstore every thing else is weird and very different than any store
we had seen in the movies or anywhere else. Later we learned that Lee had been a reader and traveled to
many libraries in different states around the world, because his dad travels
for business and they use to move a lot.
Telling my story is going to slow for me, are you all right
if I jump forward? Oh good no
objections then, let’s do that and jump forward. Seeing how the store is and how many books there are they
literally go from the floor to the ceiling and along every wall. As we traveled into the store, it
seemed were half way into the store, but we all said after leaving “that the
store is a lot small than it looks!”
Now where we thought was half way should have been outside of the store
and as we looked around and then back to the front door it was so very far
away. We could not hear the man
and some of my friends talking any more.
We heard the man shout, “Do not go to far back, it will be
difficult to get you back!” We thought
how could it be difficult we just walk back, so we ignored him and kept
going. Soon we realized that we
cannot see the front of the store and we were getting scared.
