Dandelion Full
There’s an old wives tale that says, if you rub a dandelion under someone’s chin, and it leaves a yellow mark, they’re in love. 😍
As a kid, I remember a neighborhood girl doing this to me. She plucked a dandelion from my yard and walked up to me — entirely too close for a girl to be, in my opinion… then she swiped the flower under my chin and said, “Look, you’re in love!” And began laughing and twittering.
My face flushed. My heart raced. WHAT!?! … Was I sick? Was I infected? … I ran, crying, back to the porch where my mom and her mom were sipping Nescafé and smoking cigarettes.
Safety. From love. ❤️ 🤢
