Two days ago I went into work and saw that this girl Elana who I really like working with was there. Her and I almost never work at the same times and when we do it's never in the same areas so we rarely get to chat. I just think she's a little funny and she's good at her job so I enjoy it.
Anyway something is a little off about Elana and I'm having a really hard time figuring out what it is. I see her in the back before I've started and I go up to her and tell her, "Hey, you look different somehow today." She kind of gives me a weird look and then someone else comes up behind me and distracts me and when I turn back to her she is already gone. I'm really busy that day so I don't really get much of a chance to talk with her. Every once in a while though I'd be around her and something is different. She looks...magnified somehow...like someone cropper her out of a photo, enlarged her, and then cropper her back in so that she looked bigger. NOT fatter...just bigger. I can't figure out if it's just that I"m closer to her now or what...So I keep staring at her and something is definitely different. So I tell her, "I can't figure out what is different...I think it's your hair...it's prettier in some way." And she kind of blushes. And then we are back to work...the entire time I'm working though I can't stop thinking about what it is. Was she always that tall? I can't put my finger on it. I keep seeing her out of the corner of my eye and I just can't figure it out.
Finally about 4 hours into my shift someone asks me to show something to Hailey on the computer. My first response is, "Who the hell is Hailey?!?!" And they go..."The girl you've been ringing with all day." And finally...it hits me...ELANA IS HAILEY!!! That's why she looked so different! White girls all look the same.
