We Didn't Get to Dance

Rosalie is a white woman, married with grown children. She's in her early forties and is a human resources manager for a large publishing company. Phenius is a black man in his early sixties. He's a retired teacher who now runs his own business repairing and maintaining computers and IT systems. Willie is an elderly black man. No one knows exactly how old he is, but he's older than Phenius. Willie lives mostly on the street, but that's by choice, because of an event years earlier that changed his life forever. They made a strange trio. Three people from three different worlds, and three different generations. Willie, with his ability to boil things down to very simple but accurate terms put it this way: "Well, pretty lady, two things; One you're a person, Boss is a person, and I'm a person. Two, whether you're White, Black, Red, Yellow, or Brown. Whether you're rich or poor, it's all secondary to number one."
