Sat on her husbands lap
April 2006
Today.
Sat in Boston, drinking house coffee. Across the room, a large party, families, wives, husbands and children. They took up a third of the room and a quarter of the seating.
One woman stands out from the rest, one because she is asian, probably (like Maggie) from Hong Kong, second because she is very attractive.
I read my book, stopping to look around the room, my eyes drawn to this woman. Each time I look at her, she is looking at me. Then after a second or two she looks away.
I see her talk, smiling at her friends, but always glancing back at me.
All the time, sat on her husbands lap.
