tribute # 66 (1.5) - the masseuse

lass had just opened her practice. on the table,
I was the 9 a.m. at my how are you?
she started crying. related her last appointment
yesterday, how the man "thought" if he phrased it
right, he'd get some finishing off. she explained
she is medical, professional. isn't what she does.
she cried to her mom night and morning and then.

Ha! So pathetically funny and sad at the same time. But I'm sure that's gonna..come up from time to time.

yes, I know what you mean.

she was in a state. it had to "come up" as you put it sooner or later, but she hadn't seen that coming, let alone in her first weeks out of school.
