Maybe you are starting
to want to hear more about her.
Her legs were long, and she had on a green skirt that shone like a fish's
body under the flourescent lights. You might not have noticed her legs.
They were more than adequate legs, but you might not have noticed them.
There were other things to notice about her, but you would have gotten
around to her legs eventually if you had had enough time, and when you
did you would have come to the conclusion after much studying that she
had more than adequate legs.
But you probably would have noticed her face first. That makes sense.
It was a good face. She had a sort of face that haloed itself and her
eyelashes were blondish in a way that added to the effect so that everything
seemed golden. It was like she had her own sun that she carried around
with her even though we were here where all the light was artificial and
sunshine was only a memory.
She had that memory pointed right onto her face, giving her tiny freckles
you never would have seen, and after a while she would have crossed her
legs, and then you would have noticed her legs.
