Waiting for a bus

My picture for 04/11 is a girl reading at the bus stop; the book was old and had seen many readings. She was studying the appendix in Return of the King, that along with her Hogwarts hat tells you, how much she enjoys fantasy literature. We never spoke, and this is the only time I’ve seen her, but our shared experience in reading made me feel like I knew something about her.
