Stuffing

Larissa

When I was about 10-ish, I had a playmate named Larissa. Her father worked with my dad. They lived about 5 blocks from us. Easy walking distance. Her mother had just left them and that's when I started going over there to play. I think they wanted me to help keep her mind off of all the familial distress. We played well together, but I remember thinking that their house seemed sad. It was a big house and a tad dark but overall quite pleasant. I think maybe it was one summer we spent a lot of time together. But then maybe her mother got custody as I didn't see her much anymore. I tried looking her up on facebook, but maybe she doesn't go by the name I knew her as anymore.
