dancin' in the rain

dancing her young memories of hard times at 45th street, in Astoria, NY.

She used to go out in the yard and play - about 8 to 10 years-old at 2006. Her slippers were oversized. She could be heard crying some times in the evening. Her family was from Pakistan. Tenants from the next building had called the police, a few times, on signs of domestic abuse. Her mother had couple of husbands - boyfriends and a few other kids. One of them was harassing the mother constantly. They were thrown out of the yard apartment used to occupy.
