Walking to an interview, Barb’s nose started to bleed. “Sit, sit,” she heard, as someone grabbed her elbow, guiding her to a chair in a gift shop. She looked up; an old Korean man offered her a towel.
Soon, the bleeding stopped. The man put a silk scarf in her hands. “You take, bring back,” he insisted. It completely hid the stains on her blouse.
Retracing her steps after the interview, Barb stood over her own dried blood on the sidewalk, from earlier. Only no gift shop was there. She touched the scarf, in silent wonder.

It's a long story ... 
Another great ending.
Ooh… nice. What could have happened? I like this!
Love the ending!
That’s magic. Wonderful read.
The magic of… life. Love this one.
Intriguing. An angel?
In a longer story, Barb would have asked about the gift shop in the nearby shops, only to find out there had never been a gift shop in that location. A sweet mystery.
Tresha, A lovely touch of magic. We all wish something like that could happen. Just like in the movies. Well written. 🙂 — Susan
