She
called herself "Dee," and she used to walk laps outside my old
apartment in the Valley along time ago. She held herself in high regard
and decorum. Always polite, always graceful. But there was an air of
mystery that seem to encircle her, as if she was from the upper crust of
yesteryear. She knew exactly how to pose Infront of the 1958
Rolleiflex and which lens to play to(since there are two
lenses and only one takes photo). She immediately adjusted her angle
and said, "I'm Ready." I snapped two frames, and thanked her. I told
her that her style reminded me of Audrey Hepburn, immediately she
responded with "I never could stand her," and walked off. She passed
away, a few weeks later along with all those secrets.
