Bittersweet moment on a Paris street.
He : "Excuse Madame"
She: "I am sorry I don't speak French"
He: "My English is very bad"
She "My French too"
He: "Have you got a cigarette"?
She: " I am sorry,I don't smoke"
He: "No problem,au revoir Madame"
And the young man walked away.leaving the the older woman with an acute sense of loss.
