She sat in the over stuffed chair, legs almost tucked under body, but more at her side. Her left hand lay across her left ankle, her digits fingered her middle of the right foot. The pencil that was between the middle and ring finger, was pressed lightly against her forehead.
She was perhaps nineteen years old. Brownish hair, wearing a black shorts, not too tight, and white sweater covering a white pullover blouse. She was pretty, not stunning, but would look terrific dressed in just the right outfit. Her nose on the thin side, which blended well with her small mouth.
