His fingers got lost in my strands of hair, as I yanked my head forward as if to signal I did not want him to play with my hair. My new flub doll with big blonde ringlets and skin that smelled like a foils skin after it has just been powdered, rested in my lap. My spiritless hands stroked the tiny doll as if it were alive.
