Crying girl

And she cried so much when it happened that she thought she would never stop. The tears gushed forth even though she was surrounded by strangers ... and someone else who had much more to cry about.

And from that day forth, the tears stayed so very close to the surface. It was like a very full well covered only with a light piece of plastic. Any day that heavy rains came, the well would easily overflow. She had to be so careful.
