five.

on the second day,

i brought her another book.

she seemed like the type to read a book in one day.

at least, i was hoping she was.

when i sat down next to her,

she looked up at me with big brown eyes,

and handed me my book back.

"how did you like it?" i asked.

she was silent for a second before saying,

"you made me cry, you shit."

i'd giggled and told her that there was a movie coming soon.

she agreed to go with me.

i handed the new book to her, if i stay.

and as i walked away, she called after me,

"i'm delia, by the way!"

sincerely,
