“I like this magazine,” I said to Violet as I looked up from the Paulo Coelho article in the SilverKris inflight magazine I was reading. “It’d be nice to shoot editorials for them.”
When I returned my attention to the magazine and thumbed through the pages, something caught my eye, something familiar which immediately kicked in the brains as I sifted my visual memory bank for a sign of recollection to what I had just seen. I felt a mild shock as my doubts gave way to growing certainty.
“Baby! Is this my shot?”
Violet squinted at the spread for a few seconds before her eyes grew saucer-wide.
“Oh my god!” she squealed. “I think it is!”
We scanned the accompanying text, and, upon seeing the name of the establishment I had shot the image for, could only stare at each other, grinning ourselves silly at this most unexpected discovery.
“Is it really mine?” I laughed as I took another hard look at it.
“I was there when you took this,” she replied. “It is.”
I stared at the picture on the page. One small image representing one small step in the year-long foray into uncharted territories, a journey she had accompanied me on every step of the way. As I mouthed a thank you to her, I saw in her eyes the reply to what my heart was silently saying, that there could not have been a more fitting way to conclude the one trip we began on the dawn of our second year together.
34, male and very Cancerian. Often irascible, even if he is prescient to his emotions. Lives for the resonance of beautiful passages, cinematic magic and aural bliss. Dabbles in
