"Hey," she said, as she kicked her gray sneakers off and tossed her bag on the floor.
"How's it goin'?" I asked. She looked down at the floor, then back at me. She was wearing her dark brown knitted hat.
"Not so good." She just sort of stood there in her pale socks. Her tiny dark freckles were clear on the porcelain of her skin. Her black eyes, not quite looking at anything, but looking at me, were sad and...lost. I leaned forward and put the remote on the table. I gave her my half smile.
"How are they not so good, and why?" This was met with a sigh, but barely a sigh.
"I don't know. It's just a weird day."
