"No," Andrea shook her head, glaring at her manager. "No, that's not what happened. What happened is that the guy was a prick who just couldn't believe anything that a woman told him. I said a hundred times the scope he was trying to buy wasn't going to fit his gun, and he bought it to spite me. So if I was you, I'd tell him we won't accept a return on the grounds of being a pig. But what do I know?" She caught sight of a familiar face coming through the front door and smiled, excusing herself.
Her lingering aches were worse than usual and she used a cane as she walked, but all in all she felt like she made quick enough progress. "Hey, Carlin. You so bored that you're visiting me at work now?"

"Hello, sister of mine." She said with a bright grin. "I absolutely needed a break from my own stuff so I thought that I would come here and deal with some of your stuff." She really, truly, did love her job; but there were days when everything became too much and she really needed to step back and just focus on herself and not who she was at work. And spending time with Andrea was always a perfect way of doing that.
"Everything okay around here?" She asked, taking a quick look around the store and noting that the manager seemed to be eyeing them.
