"buh-boon"


She says "buh-boon," not "ba-boon." She is dark and speaks three languages and the way she reads the word is charming.

"Why do you laugh?" she asks. "Did I say it wrong?" A small furrow at the center of her brow.

"No, you said it beautifully. The way you say it is very aristocratic."

Some things just stay with you.
