Daily Drabble 14: Library Shoe

Shoe found in the library
“I left it at the library.”
“What?” Her mom looked at her daughter with the phone still pressed against her ear.
Celia sighed. “My shoe, mom. I left it.”
Her mom stared with a slack jaw. The person on the other end kept saying hello. “Sorry. I’m gonna have to call you back. Uh-huh. Okay, bye.” She hung up. “Now, what?”
“I left my shoe at the library ‘cause the librarian said the charming prince lives in the books. Now I wait for him to find it.”
“Celia, you don’t need a prince. Be more than a princess who waits.”
