Bla

Photographed Bla last night, a girl 21 who worked the streets as a freelance worker. Bla is very very thin with bad skin, she might be sick from HIV am not sure. She had a boy child who died before, very sad empty eyes.

I was sitting on a street bench drinking water when Bla sat down beside me, she was eating a small package of cookies and offered me one. Here was a girl that had very little money who was selling her body on the street but still was polite enough to offer food to a stranger.
