The sky had been grey all day. It wasn't really stormy, just kind of wet. It had been drizzling all day. Maybe it would stay that way. Hopefully there wouldn't be a storm.
Mrs. Paragon White, a member of the Diamond Council, pulled out a cigarette. "What a dreary day. I hope they don't need me today. Certainly this little town can handle itself without one of it's Diamonds."
As she took a slow drag from her cigarette, she sighed. When had life become so dull? These meetings were so crushingly boring. Surely a town as small as Beach city shouldn't need so many Diamond meetings.
Another sigh escaped her, and she took another drag. As she watched the smoke rise, and disappear, a thought came to her. She had been part of this council for decades. Eventually though, she'd need to leave.
When she thought that, her mind drifted to her granddaughter, Rose Pink. She was the youngest of the Diamond council. If anyone could help this town, she could.
There was a knock at her door, and she snuffed out her cigarette. Who would visit her home on a hideous day like this?
As she opened the door, her bored, dreary emotions faded. They were replaced with a sunny, bright joy.
Her dear granddaughter stood there, a smile on her young face. "Hi, grandma White. Can I come in?"
Paragon smiled widely at her. "Oh, of course! Come in my little starlight!"
As she walked in, she slowly removed her shoes. "Thank you, grandma. I...needed a break."
At that, Paragon looked at her curiously. "A break? Is everything ok, dear?"
A sigh escaped her, and she sat down in front of the window. There was a small rumble in the distance. "It's just the Diamond council. They just don't respect me! None of them call me 'Mrs' and instead call me 'Rosie.' All of my ideas to improve the town are shot down. Mrs. Amber Yellow is so harsh, and Mrs. Azure Blue is strict, and hard in her ways. There's no way I can make them bend their rules."
She sighed again, and ran her fingers through her hair. "It's just not fair, you know?"
Paragon nodded. "I know what you mean, dear. They just believed you are inexperienced. I believe in you, my starlight."
Rose nodded, and smiled widely. "Thank you grandma!"
Her eyes fell on Paragon's crushed out cigarette. "Grandma? If you don't mind...could I have a cigarette?"
When she heard that, Paragon looked at her in shock. "Starlight, when did you start smoking?"
Now, Rose sighed. "I just do it once or twice on a bad day. So..."
With a hum, Paragon pulled out two cigarettes. She lit herself another one, and handed one to Rose.
As she lit hers, Paragon gave her a hard look. "You do know this is a terrible habit."
She watched Rose take a long drag, and puff the smoke out with a sigh. "Yeah. But it's relaxing."
Both women sat in silence for a few moments, taking slow drags from their cigarettes.
The loud rumbling got louder, and there was lightning flashing in the sky.
Rose looked out at the stormy sky. "I suppose it's a good day for this."
A nod came from Paragon. "My thoughts exactly dear."
While they finished their cigarettes, Rose looked at Paragon slowly. "You won't tell the others about this, right?"
Paragon gave her a sly smile. "What? Tell them that my granddaughter came to have lunch, and got caught in the storm? There's nothing wrong with that."
She gave Rose a wink.
Rose smiled at her, and nodded. "Thank you, grandma. You're the best."
A soft laugh escaped the old woman. "As are you, Mrs. Rose Pink of the Diamond council."
At that, Rose smiled widely. That smile could always brighten Paragon's day.
