The feeling of being watched would not leave Rita; in fact, the more she sank into the shadows, the more the intensity of the feeling grew. At last, she lifted her eyes from the book she had been reading, putting it down, making its colorful back cover disappear. Can I help you? The less she had to say, the better, so she let her eyes do the talking like usually. Maybe it was her looks that had drawn this stranger’s eye - maybe it had been the book. Not even the fact that the venue was barely known to people could keep company away. Then again... perhaps it was for good. She didn’t mind company.
