Claudia Allegonda 008

The stranger noticed that Claudia seemed to return from wherever she had been.

She looked at her right hand. Much to her surprise, it was empty.

"I'm afraid I dropped the half rim glasses but I don't see them. Did you take them?"

"No, I did not", the stranger replied, "they seem to have gone up in smoke"

"I am very sorry about that. Did I have a vision?"

"Indeed you had, and it was highly interesting. Do you want me to tell what happened?"

Claudia took off the Venus glasses and she put them back in the box.

"I'm afraid it's but a dim memory in my mind", she said.

"Shall we stop?", the stranger asked.

"No, I'd like to try some more of your glasses. Can you tell me later what happened?"

"Of course, Claudia, we will do as you suggest. Let's try another pair of glasses around

your own prescription"

"Yes, my eyes soon get tired when I have no glasses on. Do you have any suggestions?"

"What about this pair?". The stranger dug up a small, compact pair of glasses. "This

frame was highly popular in the mid 60's. It's called Maya Rodenstock"

Claudia put on the glasses and she looked in the hand mirror.

"Not bad. A different style again. The lenses seem a little bit too strong but my eyes

can handle them for now".
