Ms. Helen

"Are you cold?" Ms. Helen asked me as she pushed her cart up to my stand
"Well, yea kinda I suppose so.." I answered back hands full of morning papers trying to get all my work done before 9, hood tied tight over my head.
"I miss that hat you used to wear" Ms. Helen smiled.
"Oh! My uncle buck hat? Alot of people hate that hat." I showed half a smile.
"You would wear that all winter without a jacket. Just that hat. That was the first thing we noticed about you. "
I was now showing a full smile.
"I miss that hat.." Ms. Helen said as she began to turn to return to work
" I miss being strange. " I said to her as she turned away.
I then put down my morning papers I was auditing and picked up my notebook I had hidden under my terminal of writing I had been working on.
