Lola told Sami early one morning as Sami arrived to help get Beneath the Sheets ready for customers. “You’re in charge.” Sami gulped. She’d never been left alone in the store before. It seemed as if just as many of the customers came for Lola’s advice as came to buy lingerie. She was certain they would turn and walk out the door the minute they realized Lola wasn’t there. “But I don’t know if I can—” “Of course you can,” Lola said, slipping her purple-and-blue poncho over her head. “And, anyway, I won’t be gone long. Can you imagine me being chosen as a member of a jury of peers? Who could possibly be my peer?” Sami laughed. “True. No one’s like you, Lola.” “I’m definitely one of a kind,” Lola agreed. “Okay, I’m off. I’ll be back around five. Have fun, kiddo. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.” “That gives me plenty of room.” “You know it,” Lola agreed. After Lola left the shop, Sami busied herself putting together a fall display in the middle of the store.
