hamahero for a starter

                                      ‘Can I look now?’

                       It’s   a  rhetorical  question- her  eyes  have  been  squinted
                       slightly   for   the   last   ten   minutes.  He’s   clever  though,
                       && easily shields the ’s u r p r i s e’ from her wandering  eyes.
                       There’s a huff as she finally admits  defeat && she slouches
                       lower in her spot.  She recovers from the ( denial )  of being 
                       able  to  see  her  surprise  &&  begins  to  hum  quietly. Her
                       attention span is low, however, && within minutes her  eyes
                       have popped open && she’s trying to peek around the older
                       boy.

                                        ’Is it ready yet ?!’
