Tillie came into the dining hall holding two plates. She sat down a plate in front of me that was loaded with two burgers and homemade french fries. It smelled amazing, I shifted in my seat, looking up at her. Her damp hair hung down her back and the soft scent of her shampoo and body wash mixed with her own unique scent.
