Going to See Kim

She takes the time to change back into her own clothes before she goes upstairs. Fairy tale dresses, she has decided, are very lovely in book illustrations, but rather less than practical for everyday wear.

She doesn't exactly rush.

She also stands outside her sister's room for a long moment, turning the key Kim left over and over in her hand.

And then she squares her shoulders, takes a deep breath, and knocks firmly on the door, two sharp raps that sound ridiculously loud to her, in the empty hallway.
