Brooklyn Is Nice

2024-07-18 “Brooklyn Is Nice” by Emma

I was looking out the window and Merritt said, “Hey… turn around.”

He took this picture of me looking back over my shoulder. I turned around more an’ he took the other.

“Merritt! I’m in my new bra! Folk aren’t supposed to see my underwear.”

“You looked really cute,” Merritt said. “I think your Instagram friends will like it, and you’re definitely covered more than in that bikini.”

I s’pose he has a point. He said it was up to me, so I studied on the pictures a minute and decided he was right. They do kinda catch a feel of how things are going.

Me an’ Jenn went for groceries. There’s a lot of little stores you can walk to in Brooklyn.

Jenn and me walked to a store called a girl’s boutique. I got this bra. It ain’t as tight as the one I got before, but it still digs in. I guess girls have t’ get used to it. Truth be told, I kinda hope my… girl parts stay little so I can just wear a t-shirt or tank top without a bra.

I think I talked about bras enough for now.

That boutique also had some pretty things they called camisoles. But they ain’t for under a shirt. They are to be worn as a shirt. But since I knew the name, I bought one—now, I need to say it was Merritt’s money. He says the time-shift musta did the math really bad, ‘cause he’s got a lot more then he ought to have on his plastic money card, so he gave me plenty to get a few things a girl in 2024 would need.

About Merritt’s money… He’s been talking to the people that hired him to do engineering for him. He’s gonna start working Monday across the bridge in Manhattan. 

So, I guess all that to say I’m really happy. I’m looking forward to whatever is gonna happen, and it sure is nice to have people on Instagram reading my stories, asking questions, and giving me advice.

One last thing. While I was writing all these words, Merritt came by and said he was sorry for taking my picture without asking first. I tol’ him it was okay, ‘cause, like he said, I’m covered up more ‘an in a bikini.

I guess that’s all for now.

I’ll write something tomorrow, so keep your eyes open!
