The Creation of a Bronze Sculpture
Simone inspected every inch of the investment casting over the wax mold.
She’d
done the wax chasing, using delicate tools for minute scraping,
hot tools for
filling in imperfections. She studied it now, and deemed it ready.

And the pour—that moment of truth—always enthralled her. Those quick
movements of workers moving in unison, the fluid flow of deep, glowing gold
like melted sunlight.
Inside the shell, her work, her art, her vision filled with that melted sunlight.
The negative became positive, and the symbol and study of the man she’d come
to love would be born.

Still not sure what to feel about Hideaway? Relax...
...Netflix got you covered:
I watched NETFLIX Sweet Magnolias'1st Season and enjoyed it so much.
It reminds me of Nora's KEY TRILOGY (which is A Favourite💓)
and the standalone THE LIAR (which doesn't make, for me, the top 50 💔,
but might return to it now and give it another chance). ~
I even "found" some CiCi (from SHELTER in PLACE) vibes.
Give it a try if you can 💙

While he dug, she went in the house, came back out with a plastic container.
“Coffee grounds, some orange peels I haven’t taken out to the compost yet. You bury these with the roots, boy. They’ll help keep the blooms blue.”

Our brains need silence to make sense of things
“I upset her,” Reed began as Simone walked away.
“No.” Mi laid a hand on his arm, watched her friend. “No, you really didn’t. Upset, she’d have been frigid or molten. She’s thinking, and she’s looking at something she’s refused to look at for a long time.”
Mi turned back to him, positively beamed. “I don’t know what you said or did, but I’m even happier to meet you.”

The mind works hard in the moments between the noise.

“I upset you the night of the party. Your friend said I didn’t, but—”
“Mi’s right, as usual. You didn’t. I was thinking about something, and you made me think harder. I was abrupt, but that’s because I was inside my own head.”
“The SBZ?”
Her lips curved as she shrugged. “Maybe just inside the border.”
