Purple


Rachel didn’t particularly like her arms, or her legs, or much of anything except her long hair.
She had her reasons.
Arm and legs too gangly.  And her feet?  Well, everyone, in her estimation, had ugly feet.
Rachel loved how the full sun twizzled colors into her black hair.  If she flicked her head, Rachel could see tiny explosions of red, and sometimes purple, deep within the strands lashed against the light.
Purple!  Just for an instant.  
What’s not to like about that?
