Tala Talk

:: Start
The lawn next door is unkempt, with bush running over the backyard.  
In front, is Tala and her room mates taking pictures.  She notices me staring as the lawnmower stops.	
Tala motions for me to come over.

The lawn mower barely drowns out the laughter next door.  The room mates are now changing position to get the right pose.

Mowing the lawn is complete.  My arms are tired and my back aches.  It's too bad Tala picked the wrong time to talked to me.


:: TakingAPicture
Tala asks me, "Sam, take a picture of us".  She hands me her cell phone.  A few pictures are taken.  They are happy and joyful.  It's 2pm and they are all going separate ways afterwards.

I go back to mowing. Mowing the lawn is complete.  My arms are tired and my back aches.  I'm glad I took the pictures for them.

:: TalkToTala
"Tala, where are you off to today".  She says "I'm heading downtown to meet up with a friend".  Rishi and his friends are going bowling if you are interested.  I look across at the lawn mower.
