We talked about the colors we love

“She says, staring intently, ‘I thought your eyes were blue at first. They are strange and beautiful, grey and gold, with those long black lashes. You are the most graceful woman I have ever seen. You glide when you walk.’
    We talked about the colors we love. She always wears black and purple. I love warm colors, red and gold.”
