Yesterday.

There was an elderly lady standing in the change room of the Op Shop.

Second hand clothes,

Tupperware and toys.

I watched her.

The curtain was open.

She moved this way, and then that, looking at her reflection.

I dared not to speak; until she noticed me watching her.

She was trying on Fairy Wings.

She smiled at me.

I suggested that if she flap them a little, with slight elevation they may work.

She replied, with a giggle, that if she jumped off a building they may be a good fit.
