Humming my favorite song ‘Everything stays’ by Marceline.

On my way home from buying cola from a nearby store, The trees are swaying in the winds, the occasional woosh of the breeze, it fits perfectly…

“Let’s go in the garden~

You’ll find something waiting,

Right there where you left it lying upside down,

When you finally find it, you’ll see how it's faded

The underside is lighter when you turn it around~~...”

I suddenly stopped on my tracks seeing a little boy, sitting on the sidewalk, petting a black cat. Their moment seems so beautiful, like a painting coming out in real life. 

It was gorgeous.

The boy was wearing a clean white shirt and black shorts, very distinctive from others. He seems to be fated to be found even among crowds. He just seemed unique. Those deep sapphire eyes, His molten gold hair complements the setting sun. 

I stepped closer to him. I didn’t say anything, I just watched him from a very close distance. Anyways, since I’m a kid, I can appreciate his beauty from a short distance without looking like a pervert. 

Abruptly, he looked at me. Staring like there’s a big hole in my head. My heart was beating rhythmically but in a different tune. As if it was like a leading drum at a metal concert. Then he asked the most peculiar thing.

“Won’t you sing once more?”

“You heard…”

“Yes, your voice is very alluring”

As he said that my face burned in an instant. He’s a child but he sure does know how to use his words well. I can’t believe an old woman like me is craving for his voice. It was angelic, so sweet, I could feel my teeth rot!

Fvck! I wanna bring him home!

Here I am sweating like a sinner in church in the middle of the sidewalk just because a cute kid with golden haired, charismatic blue eyes, sweet angelic voice, and a drop dead gorgeous boy, whom I met told me I had an alluring voice…

Oh my god! I need to stop these thoughts or else I’ll stain this angelic boy. 

“Why are you here?”

Regretting my poor choice of words, which totally sounded like, I don’t like him, which is totally untrue! SO PLEASE! Don’t take it as it is!

“Oh I got lost, following this naughty cat.” he chuckled.

HE CHUCKLED! It was like sweet gentle bells were ringing in my ears, I was about to go crazy wanting to hear more…When I thought of a simply pure and innocent Idea to bring him home!

“If so then would you like to go home with me? You know just to call…I don’t have my phone with me right now. My home is just a little bit far away from here so I hope you won't mind.”       

"How kind of you, I'll take you up on that offer." He smiled.
