Neighbor

I don’t know Eliza. Haven’t even met her, actually; but already, I love her.

She’s Big A’s mom’s friend’s granddaughter (who was adopted from China). She and Li’l A might be classmates in the new school year so Big A’s mom was telling her about Li’l A and that I (his mom) came from India.

Eliza reportedly got all excited: “From India? Really? Did you know... Did you know that I’m from China?
