Description
I met her waiting for a bus. It was dark, and no life walked around us. I was breathing smoke through my lungs, when she asks me if I have a spare match. I decline - I had just used my last one. She sighed and her breath swung her hair off of her forehead and swooshed like waves.

I ask her where she's going. Her red lips express she's on her way home. She looks tired. She says she's hungry but has no food. She says she's thirsty too, but she spent all her money. I offer to buy her something at a deli a few blocks away. She accepts my offer diligently.

She asks for a bottle of water and a bagel. While we walk in, she asks me to buy a lighter. I agree, I have some money to spare for such a pretty lady.
She doesn't light her cigarette.

She invites me over - I have no where else to go. Home is an hour away, and she seems nice enough. She's very pretty, too, and I can't stop staring at her eyes. We catch the bus and exchange few words; she's all too secretive. There's something about her I can't resist, and I'm so allured to the sweet scent of her perfume.
