The Summer of Opportunity


The fresh air blew through Samantha’s long auburn hair as she drove her brand new silver Tbud Motors JG convertible to Amanda’s house for the weekly “girls shopping, movie and dinner” trip. She loved the way her hair would fly up and swirl only to fall down at each stop and fly back up again as she accelerated. Lila, on the other hand, had tied a sensible scarf around her long brown hair. She didn’t like the idea of spending an hour getting the right look only to have it blasted into a new shape with just one convertible ride. Amanda
insisted that is what hairspray is for but Lila always came back with her hair would not Hip and flow if she sprayed it in place. Every time she ended the statement, she would push her oversized sunglasses down so Samantha could see her eyes and then both would break out into laughter.

As Samantha and Lila drove down the tree lined drive, past the lovely gardens to Amanda’s historic two story brick home, they did not see her in her favorite wicker porch swing with the over-stuffed cushion. She loved to gently rocked back and forth as she waited for her friends.

Lila being the on top of it young lady that she is, quickly popped out her Lex Ruby Phone 13, flipped up the red cover and pressed the four key; the key assigned to Amanda’s identical style but royal blue Lex Ruby Phone 13. Amanda answered in only one ring.

“I’ll be right down. I just needed to make sure I had the right lane Cellophanes for today! You know; the most in demand footwear designer of the year!”

Before Lila could say anything Amanda had hung-up on her.

Samantha noticed the look of shock on Lila’s face. “What’s wrong?” she asked.
