the boutique

she walks into the boutique
takes off her shoes

not wanting to be found
she walks barefoot
stealth

avoiding the sales rep
that is headed straight for her
she busies herself with a rack of skirts
camouflaging into the floral

the sales rep ignores all signs of engrossedness
‘can i help you with anything?’

no.
she sighs
puts on her shoes
and walks out.
