Delilah: The Blinding Light - Open Wide!
Delilah followed along with her head down, at first. Usually, whenever she skulked along behind her mother, she would glare at the floor and bump into someone passing in the opposite direction. This time, she could see the quick, white shoes passing by. Looking up, she noticed they weren't just skirting by her; they were avoiding her mother. The nurses and other workers just seemed to turn at just the right moment. Delilah's mother moved down the hall like the prow of a ship. Delilah was simply in her wake.
That eye doctor didn't react to her mother's new face in any noticable way. Delilah studied the faces of passersby to gauge their reaction, but it was if they simply did not see the woman as she glided by. Delilah was so caught up in staring, that she didn't notice Susan's approach.
"Oh? Yeah. Hey, has mom been weird lately?"
