The Meat

A few toys were her trade standing on the side of the passage. Bearing the daring of a beginner she had being long hours frustrated. Seaming week enough a close forties male approach. Never looking at the toys he whisper at her ear. The toys were cheap but the girl choose to have no price. The man turned to go away. But what a price is to buy if you care for the one you wanted for party.! The girl looked down at the toys in tears wiping the edge of her sharp eye.

Not sure why I like this but I do. I guess she was upset, maybe the guy wanted to buy other than her toys which, to me meant all her hard work was in vain. God Bless from Pafos. Dave.
