pale pink lace

I am feeling very gratified, together, woman-of-the-world right now. When I went to pay for my lunch, the girl at the counter - an extremely pretty Korean girl who looks to be about my age - had a big chunk of her undershirt or bra visible at the opening of her v-neck tee shirt. It was pale pink lace. I wondered if I should tell her about it… then looked around at the room full of leering men of varying ages and various plaid-shirts-slash-pleated-pants combinations.. and thought it would be cruel not to. So I gestured to her by tugging at my own v-neck collar and giving deep meaningful “we are asian women and must stand together against the white man!!!!!” eyes… or perhaps they were just “hey your bra is pink and i can see it” eyes, which is good enough. She understood at once and turned away from the counter, flushing bright red as she did so. I feel I have done my part for womankind for the afternoon. Is time for siesta now.
