“Nami! STOP!”

“Wah!” Nami stopped, her foot hovering in the air. She jerked her head around to her sister, panicked. “What!?!”

“Don’t step on that crack,” Nojiko explained, pointing down at the sidewalk just under Nami’s raised foot. Sure enough, there was a crack running through it.

The redhead glared at her in annoyance, stomping her foot down just before the crack, hands on her hips. “Why not?” she demanded.

“Step on a crack, break your mother’s back,” she recited in a singsong. “Don’t you know that?”

Nami raised an eyebrow. “That’s stupid, Nojiko. Stepping on a crack won’t break anything.”

Nojiko got that superior look on her face that she used whenever she knew something Nami didn’t. “Taro said the same thing, but then his mother got hurt and had to stay in bed for two whole months.”

Now the younger girl’s eyes were wide. “Really? Stepping on a crack did that?”

“Yep. So don’t be so stupid, Nami!”

The redhead’s pout was back. “How was I supposed to know that!? Jeez, just because you’re older…”

Nami looked down at the crack, a determined set to her jaw. “You’ll see, Nojiko! I won’t ever step on a crack again! I won’t hurt Bellemere-san!”

“Navigator-san, may I ask why you always step over any cracks in the sidewalk?”

Nami gave Robin a wide grin. “Step on a crack, break your mother’s back. Haven’t you heard of it, Robin?”

She chuckled. “Surely you don’t believe that old superstition.”

“Not really, but…” She trailed off, looking up at the sky for a moment as a cool sea breeze stirred her hair.

“I’ve never wanted to take any chances.”
