boyfriend sweater.

It had been a good day. A nice day at Church. Lots of beautiful people on their knees. Lots of beautiful songs in their ears. Lots of beauty.
She liked beautiful things.
And now she was in the thrift shop. In the men's sweater section. Her arms piled with big knitted cardigans and pullovers. She wanted a boyfriend sweater. Minus the boyfriend. What better place to get one but a second hand store? She skipped over to the fitting rooms, and the young man helping her gave this grin. Her face got hot. And then he laughed at her. Her face got red. She didn't like it.

Her hands full of mens sweaters. How could he not laugh? The deliberate way he took forever to unlock her dressing room door. How could she not blush?

But it all turned out perfect. She bought the mocha coloured Banana Republic wool sweater. He was her cashier. And then she went home. Running to her car through the rain.
Beautiful. So beautiful. And hilarious. Her life was hilarious.
