Smoke curls up from her cigarette, rising to be dispersed by the fluttering fan, as Van leans forward in her chair and peers out the open window of her small shop. The heat and humidity have combined today to make this a tropical special. It takes the barest of effort, before sweat is trickling from her skin, everywhere, soaking her light, white cotton top and dampening the waistband of her floral shorts. It’s the middle of a hot spell-- high summer. Everyday has been the same monotony as the one before it and, Van expects, will be the same as the ones yet to come. However, beneath the restrained tension of this scorching stillness lies the stirrings of a sultry tempest and, all morning, Van has been praying for relief.
