SHE WEARS A BLUE DRESS WITH BILLOWY SLEEVES, A ribbon wrapped around her small waist. Her nails are long and pale, her fingers long and delicate, her hair long and smooth and straight. There is vanilla in her tall cup of fluffy coffee, and she drops her chin on her palm when she talks about falling in love for the first time. He was 16, she was 17, and even now, she remembers how he held her hand for the first time. There has never been anyone serious since then, after all, she considers herself a 19th-century romantic, and requires sparks and true love.

Her name is Sass, although when she was born 27 years ago, the doctor said she was a boy.

What a beautiful, wonderful story, Z. Thank you so very much for posting it.

What a beautiful, wonderful woman Sass is. And persistent and intelligent to boot. I'm happy I share a world with her.
