tw: breaking and entering location: Bait & Switch open to: all @crestlestart
Thalassa linked her hands behind her head, taking a few slow breaths. Once her uncle returned from his short vacation - one she had begged him to go on to - he was positively going to freak. Things just hadn't gone her way ever since she found that dreadful coin. She watched the two police officers examine the glass shards scattered over the entire first floor of the Bait & Switch, windows broken, displays toppled over. She hadn't checked yet whether or not much had been stolen - she had called the police immediately for fear of destroying any evidence. But the sheer audacity of someone breaking into her shop, made the siren's blood boil.
She heard voices behind her and steeled herself to face the crowd of onlookers and well-meaners. "Great, the last thing I wanted. Bad kind of attention", Thalassa said to the first person she spotted, "Can I help you?"
