Business had been going well, so far, though it was quiet, today. Polly perched on one of the counters, legs dangling as she read a book, a cup of Earl Gray steaming beside her. Even with it being a slow day, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride--when she'd arrived on the ship two years ago, the idea of running her own business had never occurred to her.
