Rest was almost over. Stella turned to me and we started chatting. “How long have you been teaching?” she asked. I told her I’d started twenty years before, at Ramona Elementary.

　　“I went to school there twenty years ago!” Stella said. I looked at her again, this time really seeing her. Those big brown eyes. That long, dark hair...

　　“Did you use to have two long braids?” I said. “We called you Estrellita… ”

　　Stella shouted. “ You ! You gave me the crayons!”
