What a Wonderful World

The little black girl returned the little black book and was promptly rewarded with $20,000. Milano Lombardy was still in shock even after seeing the money deposited into her bank account. It was by pure chance she even noticed the little black book lying in a patch of snow on her way home from a night shift at Modo&Modo, the local bar. Milano wasn’t even so sure how she noticed the little black book under the cover of night. The snow probably had something to do with that, you’d be a fool not to notice something that black against the cover of an all-encompassing whiteness she thought. Milano thought about the parallels of her own life, with being the only black person in her small town.
