Her belted heels unbuckled in the midst of her step. The particular mayhap was what she had been waiting for during the enormity of the heated, absurd day. Herself and her father had found themselves in a gruesomely, sorrowful realm as barking spilled out of their mouths over her particular lover. Leaning down, shuffling her toes in her loose shoes on the cool cobblestone path, the woman felt the corners of her mouth shrug up into a dreamy smile as she brushed her cheek against her bare shoulder.

Louise… A real, plump gem, had she found. Her sweet Louise laughed a warm embrace around her, omitting a warm atmosphere into the coldest of rooms. Her bobbly elbows were always peach compared to her skin from years of scraping and skinning as she worked a bakery, seemingly always bumping herself into the oven door. As her mother rejoiced at their relationship, glad that they sang in perfect harmony… the paternal figure remained unimpressed; snapped and sneered at every possible moment.

Returning her face to a furrowed, unforgiving frown, the woman slipped her feet out of her heels uncaringly and walked bare. With a shiver against the cool stone, a sudden crack of a protective blue sky shield broke, making the kindly woman whip her head up suddenly only to see spilling rain from heavy clouds to ground. Chiming in gratefulness as she had removed her unsteady footwear, the woman walked happily through the grove of trees that only barely hindered the relentless downfall.

Oh how she had yearned, fingers itchy, to open the small encasing of a diamond ring inside her bag.

Louise.
