Yay for reviews! Boo for slightly unimaginative drabble coming up. Sorry guys!
Shade
Contrary to her thoughts, the large oak tree offers very little shade. She can barely see the page, much less the words on it.
The sun beats down on her shoulders, and she wishes, just once, that her impulses would turn out the way she wants them to. It seems so fun with Amir and Hassan.
Someone casts a shadow over her book, and she yells at them for standing in her light.
Maybe shade is a bit overrated.
Reference: Amir and Hassan were kids in The Kite Runner whose hang out was a pomegranate tree.
