Even though she was 99.9999% focused on the candy up ahead, Maddie was able to hear a little bit of the whistling sound behind her. Out of curiosity alone, she turned to see some older girl get in line behind her. Right as she turned around, the girl began reassuring, which meant she must be able to read minds really well! That was super cool! She'd known just what Maddie had been thinking even though nothing had been said out loud. "There is? Do you know for sure? Did you see them stock it?" she asked, lunging right into her usual stream of questions.

Not being able to help herself, Maddie turned back around and poked her head around the crowd. The line had only moved a little bit tiny bit. Somebody was being a slow poke up there! "What do you think's taking so long? Do you think some kid is taking their dear, sweet time? What if I went up there and suggested things for them? Do you think the line would move faster?" she asked. She needed answers!
