Awakening
This line of thought brought memories of my parents many fights, shaking my head I focus once again on Melanie, the sweet girl who wore her heart on her sleeve.
“Okay, I won’t laugh.” Grabbing her hand I lead her over to the bed forcing her to sit as I glance over the multi coloured dresses scattered across the room.
“How about you try something new. Hmm, what about, that pale blue silk dress your father got you when he was last in the city,” I say pointing to the only dress still hanging in the closet, she’d would look beautiful in it. Simple and elegant the pale colour would make her long dark hair stand out even more.
