You’re wearing a hijab? I’m nervous.

Camille,
Castle Rock, CO.

I grew up in an area where there were no Muslims. I moved to Colorado and that’s when I was first exposed to the religion. My mom gets very nervous when she sees a woman wearing a hijab. She almost leaves the store we are in every time. It’s just something I had grown up around. It freaks me out when I can’t see someone’s face.
