She felt a hollowness in her chest, a feeling that had settled deep within her after all the errands she had run that day. She'd been on her feet all day, she wanted to sit. She massaged the bridge of her nose, her eyes scanning the scene before her.

Maybe just one time, maybe she just wanted to sit and relax without needing to do anything.
