I remember what happens next.
She, with her dark, tumbling hair and cotton dress sat on the other side hiding behind a spindly tree...gilded eyes bore into me.
I felt her stare, he did as well. We didn't know who she was... or so I thought.
His face became solemn, he called out her name. She started to rise from her place.
With a quick glance over her shoulder, she began to flit away. Her ran after her, screaming to her, pleading for her to return. They disappeared into the forest, and I was left behind.
Intensity rolled down my face.
