Kanta Blood

By the time all the hats and scarves were finished the weather had improved considerably. Al and I headed out using clothes we had borrowed from the servants' wing and set up shop in the part of town that held the public market.

I had already enacted the first part of my plan by having all of the other hats and scarves being sold bought up and delivered to the orphanage earlier in the week. We were the only ones selling and with our low prices they were clearing out pretty quickly.

Al went off to find us some lunch while I held down the fort. I made three sales in the first five minutes he was gone. I knew this idea would work!

"Miss, do you have hats in children's sizes?" a female voice asked as I was finishing up with another customer.
