When I came to a shop, a baby was standing on the counter. Apparently, it was a girl because of its clothes. Yet it had close-cropped hair. After she noticed me walking, she started to gaze at me. Maybe it was uncommon to see the color of my skin for her. It could be different from her parents.

Looking closer, her round eyes were edged with Kajal. It was used for protecting kids from the bad glances.
