"let's take the city
and make it our song"
●●●●●
THIS CITY has been known to Cinzia long before she even set a foot here.
Milan, Italy.
The city painted with the colours of art, fashion, literature, history, business and what not.
She only remembers seeing a picture of it with an article in some random magazine. She doesn't even have a clear memory of both the things but she does of the fascination that gripped her senses. Ah! The never-ending fascination. As she learnt more about Milan, she knew that was it. That it was where she saw herself. That it could be her escape. Her safe haven. That it would bring out the best in her.
Now that she is in the city, she knows she was right.
Yes, it wasn't always happening to her. Initially, she let herself get blinded by the desire that had grown over the years. It did give her scars that will never fade. At some point, she hated it too. Her idea of the place was the one of fantasy and reality was way too different from it. But she had had worse. Above that, she knew it was her fault and only she could make it better. So, she did.
Her long list of diverse dreams seems funny and unattainable to many but it's crazy how she can see all of them getting fulfilled here. How her likes, dislikes, inspirations, aspirations, all come from here. How every single thing leads her to Milan. How it looks like pure heaven to her. How it makes her feel like she has never had a home and finally found one.
And she knows one thing for sure, she wasn't born there but she surely belongs there.
