Fog overshadowed land— empty, full of fresh dew grass, and bald cypress trees.
Both human figures stood face to face. It was hard to tell whether or not it was a man or woman but by the shape of their physiques—despite the difficulty of the aerosol—was evident to point out.
The hands of the male figure reached up to touch the hidden face of the woman's before bringing it closer to his before pulling away. Hands were joined briefly as the thumb of the unrecognizable male figure softy caressed it over the skin of the female's.
A kiss was planted atop the hand where the thumb once was before letting go as their visible body gradually faded away into the fog.
The image turned into darkness.

Café du Monde was one of the many famous tourist attractions located on 800 Decatur Street of the French Quarter. It was home of the cajun influenced desert—beignets—covered with powered sugar and chicory that creoles provided during the coffee shortage many years ago, which adds a chocolate-like flavor in café au lait on the side. It was the café Sidonie and Michael were spending most of their time sitting at a table for two on the front patio, enjoying the warm spring weather.
Since the Buku Fest two days ago, they have kept in contact by texting but most times would talk on the phone for hours getting to know more about the other. It almost felt as though they've known each other for years. During those two days, Sidonie became more outspoken, a quality that was never attached to her name, but thanks to Michael, he's brought out a side of her that was nonexistent for a very long time. Even her grandmother Terrion noticed the slight change of attitude. Not that she complained but she wondered what or who was bringing the life back into her grandchild.
Over the course of their conversations, Sidonie and Michael discussed their family; she got to know more about his life in Gary with his other nine siblings. Unlike herself, Sidonie was an only child being raised by her grandmother. When asked about her parents, she never divulged as of yet. She promised Michael when she was ready, she'll open up about them, but for now, she needed more time considering their deaths were very difficult to express to others. He respected her wishes and moved on to the next topic.
