I've met him 10 years ago. We were beautifully young.

The exchange of glances are always feelings that leave us a little breathless, and that's what I felt every time I looked at Benjamin and he looked at me.

We don't have that typical beginning of story, enemies to lovers, or childhood friends, we met in Kew, I always had my comfort book in my hand while breathing all the fresh air, and Benjamin.. well, that garden was part of him already.

You know those flowers that have that bright, bright color, that they look so alive? It's how I always felt next to Benjamin.

His first words never left my head.

"They look like you"

I looked at him lost but still interested in the meaning behind those words.

"They, the sunflowers, are as alive, as real, as you are."

There are connections that go beyond our being. Maybe we connected beyond this universe and that was our first feeling of many.
