Bad Omen

Bella was very happy… beyond any words, walking on those familiar market road… but this time it was different, these moments were special. She was getting strangely emotional, this sudden love was dawning on her the fear if she would lose them too. She watched Susan's lips, intently trying to catch her every words. In past, nobody bothered to explain Bella anything. They just told her something crisp and short. But Susan was having a comfortable chat with her, a totally normal and cheerful conversation. She was indebted to this woman who readily showered happiness in her life.

As they reached the market, the sweet elegant lady suddenly turned to become a voracious customer. Her bargaining had no loopholes and the shopkeepers had no other way than agreeing to whatever prize Susan fixed. Bella admired Susan's ability to mould herself so well at the right occasions.
