PERSONAL STORIES
Mrs. Hazleton's Window
Trisha’s house stands three doors away from mine. On my way there, I wonder what games we’ll play today. Trisha’s a year older than me and always ready with great ideas.

It’s a chilly morning, the kind that exists in the Bay Area despite seasonal expectations for June. We’re here for a bite— mindful to keep room for a heavier lunch later. It’s rare that I’m out for breakfast on a weekday, that too with company, so I’m savoring the moment.
