His First Lady
Within, I can hear Miles talking.
“I’ll leave you here,” the assistant says, nods, and then disappears back up the hallway.
“Now is the time for change,” Miles says, his voice full of pride. “And of hope.”
Peeking around the crack in the door, I catch sight of Miles’s reflection in the mirror. With his fitted suit, flag pin on his lapel, and his hair slicked back, he stands tall, his head held high. Like this, he looks very respectable. Very presidential.
