                                Her 
                                  velvety little hand glides across the white 
                                  sheet of paper. The blue pen guides her hand 
                                  in a flowing rhythm. The muscles in her tan 
                                  arm flex. Her hold on the pen tightens after 
                                  every word she scribbles. Her thoughts show 
                                  on her face as they travel to the tip of the 
                                  pen and reveal themselves on the page.
