Word limit: 200
Kang Seulgi saw a goddess among the colorful crowd of the festival. The combinations of colors, muted or vibrant, the different faces, laughs and hairs all in view, and yet… This woman with pale skin, soulful eyes, a white sweater and jeans that stood among the busy summer attire everyone had, a multitude of things catching the woman who only felt a ZING run all over her body and explode right at her stomach in sweet delightful tickles of fondness.
Then, three people walked by and she was walking away and no matter how much Seulgi pushed through the crowd, she couldn’t make any way towards her. All like a dream, where she was meant to stay in her place and watch the woman walk away. When five people walked across Seulgi’s very eyes, in that fatal moment where she looked away instinctively, that woman was gone from the crowd. Truly gone, like she drifted through the wind, like she became a dove and flew away from the tumult.
Seulgi was left there wondering if she’d met the stranger ever again.
