now that was a great story. I can't really pick out any one part I liked best because I love it all. Very well done!
I particularly like the way this starts and ends. It gives the piece the feel of a story that is often repeated in a person to themselves. The nature of language, that words can become icons, lifts a memory written like this, from being just a memory, into the land of personal fable. (be it an actual memory or the imagined.)
By the end of this. I too want to lean over and smell the vanilla in her untouchable hair. I can hear her skates.
