His hands were very tan. They were full of character and I enjoyed watching him gesture as he spoke. I was fixated on his left hand as he wrote on the chalkboard. A South Paw huh? Then I noticed the faint white line at the base of his third finger. It was only a shade lighter, as if a ring had recently been removed. Is he widowed or divorced? Either way he is recently single, or he is just like most guys and married at home but nowhere else. He lowers his hand and my trance is broken.
