beatrice gilray

She was 35, but looked younger, or rather, seemed to have no age. A fresh and clear skin. Her eyes bright fit in the orbits too shallow and without wrinkles. The face had anything alive and volunteer, and it was not devoid of beauty; but the shape and slope of the nose were an all-nothing comical, there was a hint of slightly absurd in the glow bead eyes, mouth pouting in round chin and full of challenge. The posture of his lips was humorous and the expression of her eyes round and frightened, mock and wickedly curious.
About that young and delicate shyness had a outer shell; there was a part of her that gave pecks and was essentially practical.
