Clara Bow: The It Girl


"She flew in from London last night," said the butler, Arthur. "She said she wanted to surprise her fiancé, yet ended up surprising herself. She visited his hotel room and said she caught him with another woman." He sighed and brought a hand to his aching forehead. "In all my years of knowing Ruby, I've never seen her cry."

He paused, reminiscing of the little girl he raised, "She's called off the engagement. The phone rings, but she refuses to answer."

"Do you think she will take him back?" the stranger asked.

"How can she when he doesn't even exist?"

A/N: For those who do not know, Silent Film Star, Clara Bow, was termed 'The It Girl' due to her portrayal as a sassy shop girl in the 1927 film, It. Also, she is recognized for starting the flapper-look trend.
