THE GRAY LADY

The final week before graduation, I read about the Gray Man. I wore my sunglasses at the dining table because the sun streamed into the room at breakfast and anyone with a good set of binoculars could peer into the apartment at any time.

I stared at the window while I thought, A tall, bushy plant in a pot on the patio might block the view. Maybe Mother would like an azalea.

Mother scoured the local newspaper during breakfast.

I raised my voice to catch her attention. “Did you know some men are so gray they become invisible? Isn’t that amazing?”

Mother scanned the obituaries...one of her hobbies...and frowned. “They aren’t literally gray. It means they blend in with everyone else.”

“Then they’d be called the Blend Men.”

Mother pointed to the second column of the obituaries. “Oh no. These two people are three years younger than I am.” She knocked over her chair as she jumped up and reached for the phone to call one of her friends.

Time to shop. I bought gray clothes, hair dye, and a plant.

Mother screamed when I came out of the bathroom that afternoon with my gray hair. “I’m shunning you again, Margaret. Maybe until the end of the week. I need to get a cat, so I have somebody to talk to. I could say things like, ‘Cat, I called the plumber. The disposal doesn’t work.’ Or ‘Cat, I love the Ficus plant She-Who-We-Shun got for the patio.’”

“I’m right here, Mother.”

“Cat, I have a hair appointment. Maybe She-Who-We-Shun will wait for the plumber.” Mother grabbed her purse and keys and rushed out the door.

I searched the apartment, just in case. No cat.

INTERVIEW AT THE LIBRARY

 The small library branch was in an older part of Harperville. I stepped inside and listened to the quiet buzz of whispered conversations and the clicks of computer keys while I breathed in the musky aroma of old books and moaned.

The head librarian, Olivia Edwards, met me at the door. She was middle-aged, solid with broad shoulders, and tall. Her skin had a ruddy tone, and her short gray hair had a few streaks of soft brown.

We passed the main desk that was on the left near the door before she ushered me into her office. “I see you are in your Gray Phase.”

“Yes, I used to be in the Black Phase.”

Olivia smiled. “Ahh. I did the Black Phase long ago. I kind of miss it. Let me give you a quick tour.”

Olivia interrupted our tour to introduce me and to chat with patrons. She motioned to a reading room. “We’re here for the people, Maggie. Books mean nothing without people to read them.”

When we lingered in the children’s room, Olivia said, “What do you think? Could you work here?”

I glanced around the room. The walls were painted with bright cartoony animals in a gaudy jungle. I smiled as I thought, this is Mother’s kind of place.

Three toddlers and their mothers sat on the carpet, surrounded by piles of old and new books. One of the toddlers squealed as she hugged a book and then handed it to her mama to read.

“Yes. My kind of place.”
