Things I see alone...

I am in the office bus and sitting right next to me is a short, dark, pretty girl with the most beautiful eye lashes I have ever seen. Every 2 minutes her phone goes beep beep and she rushes her fingers on the keypad with the same intensity every time.

With every beep her eyes become bigger and the eyelashes spread out to form a beautiful crescent. The setting sun's rays look stunning through the gaps in her lashes.

With every beep (which is now irritating the hell out of everybody around her) she smiles like she hasn't ever lived in this world.

Every time she types something furiously on the small screen, she looks up to see the setting sun, like she doesn't care it will rise again tomorrow and she will have to live another day and a very real life.

Now the beeps have stopped, her eyes are closed, but the smile is still there...more beautiful than before. She is dreaming...I know.

Looking at her, I cant stop smiling either. :) Love is lovely. It makes you smile at things that never made you smile before.

I had a similar experience on the train between Geneva and Lyon a couple of months ago. A girl sitting next to me was texting, smiling, texting, smiling, obviously in love. I'd forgotten about that moment, until I read your post. Thank you.
