It's raining. Christ. Why is it always bloody raining? 221B Baker street isn't a very appetizing place to spend the summer cooped up anyway but when it's raining-...
Of course, on the way to the store for some candy (and milk and jam. Her fathers must think there's a fairy in the house now for as little as they run out) to occupy herself, the wind blew her umbrella inside out and a cab splattered her with mud and really, candy, milk and jam aren't worth the horrible mess.
Her Papa is always giving her the stink eye for slamming the front door (he thinks she's going to give Mrs. Hudson a heart attack) but she thinks her current state is reason enough to do so. Plus, Mrs. Hudson is at bridge and her fathers are on a case, so it's not like he's here to know. Dropping her ruined umbrella in the tin, she sighs and tries to ring out her hair before heading upstairs. "God awful mess today was..." Her first time out in 3 days and she's gotten completely ruined. Fabulous.
