was on my way home from an interview..
not knowing that the REAL INTERVIEW was yet to come.
as usual, i was playing around with my bebe..
this boy taps on my window asking for money.
i never give money.
so i looked though my bag finding only 4 pieces of candy.
he's not THAT young that candy would make his day..
but i thought that candy was better than nothing..
then i closed the window....
because jover was concerned someone might grab my bebe..
then the boy moved toward the driver's side. he starts cleaning the windshield..
jover gave him money so he would leave.
but even after the "payoff"..
he stayed.
he stared at me as if there wasn't any tinted glass between us.
he went through the tint, through my lens, my viewfinder..
and ultimately right through me..
as if he knew me..
and he had a something urgent to tell me about him..
or maybe even about me..
that's what i love about taking photos..
there's always an underlying story behind everything..
and hopefully, one day..
i can figure out what each story is trying to tell me..
and work for their happy ending..
