The short happy life of francis the violin maker CHAPTER TWO
Simone left first. With her jacket on. Came out first. Out of the CandyStore.
@
Holds her jacket close. Looks down. At an angle. In front of her. Flat. Like a domino falling. Like a kid kicking water with yellow boots on. When the kid is already wet. When it stops caring about the rain. Crosses the playground through a shallow large puddle. Kicks water and watches the pattern of the spray. Sees the droplets. Scatter. Spray. Slooshes headlong. Steps and splashes and kicks and sprays.
@
Simone is like a wall. Like a well shaped wall. Straight and level. Tight. Without graffitti. Excellent craftsmanship in the mortar joints.
