Venturing Out and Trying Not To Freak Out
#1
((Continued from here))

Cadence was covered as much as she could be. That was the nice thing about winter was that it was easy to hide your appearance.  It wasn't that Cadence didn't like her fans seeing her.  The issue was she was close to having anxiety and panic attacks that the attention might trigger it.  It was a miracle she had left the house in general.  She wore a thick coat and a scarf covered the lower part of her face and nose.  She wore a hat as well.  She found herself at the GUM, and was going to spend the day looking at stores, not really planning to buy anything at all.

She found herself in a bookstore and began to peruse the stacks.  Perhaps she would buy a book after all.  She was in the sci/fi-fantasy section, and saw lots of familiar titles.  Tolkien had never lost it's luster - even after nearly a century.  She saw the Ender books by Orson Scott Card as well.  Star Wars books were still a thing.  Cadence smiled beneath her scarf, feeling better as she thought of how these books told of a magic and wonders.  She knew that magic existed.  Some of the technology in the sci-fi stuff existed, but still - not as much as they thought. 

It was strange what brought people out of their funks.  For Cadence, merely looking at books had made her feel good.  She took her scarf down, feeling hot, and willing to engage with fans if she saw them, but she continued to look through the books, wondering what book she could start.
