The light grew brighter and brighter, shining directly into his eyes, but he fought against every instinct to squint. He didn't want to miss a single detail. He longed to see everything unfold before him. With a glimmer of hope, he took a step towards the light, holding his breath as it dimmed slightly.
And there, just a short distance of thirty feet away, she stood. Their eyes met, and she seemed to emit a radiant glow as if illuminated by bright lamps. Her silver-white curls swirled around her face, moving with grace as she stood there in the gentle evening breeze. A gentle, innocent smile graced her lips.
His heart skipped a beat, then another, as a rush of emotions flooded through him. His palms grew moist, and his knees weakened with a mixture of anticipation and vulnerability.
Hi
