"There's a spider back in the fiction." The large man visibly pales and assumes a defensive position behind the desk.
arach·no·pho·bia: pathological fear or loathing of spiders.
"I'll take care a lot of things but spiders are not one of them."
His female coworker went to take a look. There it sat, at eye level, comfortably waiting on a display book- The Unwelcome Guest, like a furry black and yellow gumball. The spider made its escape down the back of the shelves, free to terrify and harass another day. Until our eight legged friend is apprehended, the man will not go into the fiction section.
