Sunday

Eight

She looks young. When she speaks, they know she is not. It makes her happy when people listen. She is drawn to people who have the patience not to interrupt. And the faith not to judge.

One time she feels like Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman". She walks into a bridal shop and no one addresses her, not even a "Good morning" from the two salespeople. She walks out and brings very good business to another shop two blocks down the street. Her father told her once "your life isn't a fairy tale" but that day it comes close.
