It was already September, the middle of autumn. A cool breeze brushed Kaj’s cheeks. She shivered slightly, but just pulled her long brown coat tighter to keep warm.

On her way to work at the cafeteria, flyers were scattered all over the street. Kaj frowned. “Look at all this mess—poor cleaners.” She sighed and kept walking. A strange sensation came from her foot; she had stepped on something. Curious, she bent down and picked it up.

“The Freak Circus of Horror…” It sounded fun. Kaj stared at it for a moment, then stuffed the flyer into her pocket.

“You freak! Get out of our town!” a man shouted loudly, his voice echoing down the quiet street. Kaj noticed and hurried toward the sound. “Hey, that’s enough! Stop being so rude, or I’ll call the police!” she yelled at him.

“May the devil drag you to hell too!” the man snarled and stormed off.

“Oh… your head’s bleeding. I think you need this.” Kaj pulled a pink bandage out of her pocket and pressed it onto his forehead. “There we go. Have a good day.”
