She

She worries how the night will end, as she runs her long thumb nail across her lips. She doesn't bite it - she gave up that habit years ago. Probably around the time she took up smoking - orally fixated. From one bad habit to another.
She can't cry tonight although she would love to. She's out around 30-somethings with smiles on their faces. Besides, she's not wearing waterproof mascara.
From the table next to her she overhears a good looking young blonde woman with piercing greenish blue eyes talk about her new earrings her boyfriend bought her. She can only assume it's her boyfriend being as she didn't notice a ring on her finger. But then again, that's her traditional side thinking. When in fact, these days you never can tell. For all she knows, the blonde could have been with her boyfriend for 10 years by now. Maybe he really does love her. Or maybe he cheated on her & is trying to make up for it. Blondes do have fun, but even pretty girls get cheated on.
