I was coming home tonight and I stopped at the dollar store to pick up a couple things. When I walked up to the register there was a black woman there paying for her stuff and in her carriage sat the cutest little black girl. She was 3 years old at the most and had huge round eyes and that crazy black girl hair do with the 7 or 8 braids. When I walked up the little girl gave me the biggest smile ever and said, "HELLO". I was thinking in my head, "What a peach, such a doll". So I said, "Hi" is a very sweet sing songy friendly way. The little girl's smile immediately disapeared into a frown and with a sternly furrowed brow she said, "I am NOT high!". OMG it was the best ever. In my head I was like WTF, what do I say now. In that moment I was utterly convinced I was on camera and this was so going to be all over the internet. Luckily her mom interjected, "Of course you're not high. I should hope not at your age". To which I immediately added, "And if she is then why is the girl holding out on us?". The mother let out this huge holler of a laugh and when she was a bit composed she complimented me by saying, "You are a funny white guy!'. I could have died and went to heaven on the spot. It was the best trip to the dollar store ever. I did not make up one word of this and soooooo hope it was on camera. I would replay that insane moment like a thousand times.
