THE COUPLE
The sky blackened and the stars dazzled, and I, 23 minutes later am still
watching him drown in his serenity and peacefulness, as if he was moved back into
a completely different world; He hardly did look conscious of himself, of the cramped
atmosphere he was integrated into. Neither could his hearing detect the raucous voice
the aged lady, heckling the young delightful servant for probably having mistaken
her order, nor could his sight guide him to catch the little tortoisehell fluffy kitten
that had erroneously popped in. Instead, he was busy gazing at an old posh couple
in their late sixties, intimately and surreptitiously rubbing each other's feet, and
whispering to each other while holding hands. This; he felt, was the only scenery that
seemed to be intriguing among everything around.
Indeed, their grace, youthful spirits and spontaneous behaviors were captivating;
However, I would have probably been much allured by their style especially, it was
of a fine taste. I admit.
The husband was a dandy. His silver messy hair was what I fancied the most. I
imagined she would fondle it whenever she finds the opportunity to do so, and his
outfit, was simply what a wealthy upper-class man would choose to look like.
The lady's appearance was even swankier, and unlike her lover's hair, what stroke me
the most was her red chinchilla fur coat and diamond drop earrings.
I wondered what brought two well-off people like them to such an ordinary place !
After all, none of this mattered to him, as he has always found connections with
peoples' souls and nothing else.
Few minutes after the deep admiration he felt and expressed towards the couple, through
his glances, he took out a pencil, a small piece of paper, and started to portray them
patiently.
Meanwhile, my sensations, thoughts, consciousness were all confined within him. I wished I
was the music played on his earphones, the coffee he was sipping, the pencil he was
holding, the chilly air-flow he was enjoying, the light that was shed on him. Or simply, I
WISHED I WAS THE COUPLE.
