I wanted to caption a picture sent to me by Eddie Davidson. I couldn't do it. There was too much going on, so I wrote a short story instead. Check out the picture then read the story.
This story was inspired by a true event that happened to me on my way to work one day. The rest, after the first three paragraphs, unfortunately, is pure fiction. In the true version, she just smiled at me and walked away as I went into work; I never saw her again.
