Sexy

"You're sexy."
"what does it mean?"
"That word 'sexy'. What does it mean ?"
"I can't tell you."
"Why not?"
It's a secret.

.....
"It means loving somebody you don't know"
"That's what my father did."
"He sat next to someone he didn't know, someone sexy, and now he loves her instead of my mother."

In "Beauty" by Zadie Smith
