Bricks, IV

The sun’s on its descent. When I arrived at Sara’s house, Cecilia’s also there, the two are inseparable, though Kalulu (“rabbit”) as her friends affectionately deem her, is half Sara’s height, Sara being exceptionally tall. Her dad didn’t have the mold, but Kalulu’s father is a bricklayer, so they ran off, literally, to borrow it. Now, in this giant pit, I’ve got 5 girls, agile & extremely dedicated shoveling mud & shaping bricks. They hold each other very precisely accountable, yet freely assist.
