The day was winding down at last, much to Ophelia's relief as she swept away the dust by the front door; after all, it was not going to sweep itself. Now Ophelia did not enjoy doing things like cleaning, but a clean store was good for business, as who wanted to give their money to a place that was dirty? She decided tomorrow morning she would mop the floor seeing as it had been a quite a while since it had been given a good scrub with hot water and soap. She would have done it today, but felt rather tired from the rather long day she had experienced and as well as closing time was very near. Ophelia would have locked the door, but she wasn't totally aware of when her baby sister Raine would be coming back and did not wish for her to pound on a locked door and give Ophelia a scare.
After finishing sweeping the doorway, the girl went behind the counter and began to put things away for the night, humming slightly as she worked away. As it got darker, Ophelia began to get an eerie feeling, seeing as the front door was unlocked and she had no idea how to use any of the weapons. She gave a quick peek out the window before locking the front door. Ophelia said to herself, "Where the bloody hell are you, Raine?", before sitting down behind the counter and opening the page to the latest book she was reading.
