i will remember her:
with her short, short hair, her badge of pride when i met her. she’d shaved it all off for charity in honour of her late brother. raised a lot of money for St. Baldrick’s, the only girl to shear her long locks that chilly spring day in front of the cafe. i hadn’t known her, hadn’t seen it, but i would have loved to be there; i swore that this time around, i’d do it too. i’m as mad now as we were then that her friend forgot to tell us when.
