She was different from most of the people.

Y/N didn't see the world with her own eyes, but with her own heart and viewed it through her photos.

Everything around her was like an artful photo, with color and motion in them, too important not to capture with her Nikon camera.

She once regretted not capturing something that made her heart flutter, her stomach knock. She wished she would see that...

Pushing the thought aside, Y/N smiled to herself, reaching for her cup of coffee that was beside her laptop that she was working on.

It's not like I will meet him again. She thought letting the coffee bean aroma awake her nervous system and her mind.

Two strangers who met up in unusual occasions, in a foreign country and then going their way quietly again. That's how life is

The cafe, Y/N was having her coffee in, was quiet with some relaxing music that let her work on her editing peacefully. Her favorite spot was always next to the window, where she could view the world through.

She looked at her laptop and smiled. Another couple of photos and she would be done.

Some more sips from her coffee and she would have to go back to her office to continue her work there. Y/N liked to work in the cafe more.

As she sipped her last amount of coffee, Y/N collected her stuff in her bag, getting ready to go.

Her heart skipped a beat and she thought that she stopped breathing for a second, when she felt someone looking at her outside the cafe.

In the crowd, between hundreds of people, thousands of people, those doe eyes, this nose, that jaw line, those lips, that face she could recognize him out of billion of people.

He was there, looking at her with the same wide eyes that she thought she probably looked at him with. But soon those eyes softened as he turned his body, making him look at her fully as he put his hands in his black leathered pants. He was wearing over it a white plain shirt under a dark jeans jacket, looking handsome as she remembered him.

Y/N didn't believe her eyes, she felt herself frozen under his warm gaze. She couldn't function that he was really here, standing in front of her, smiling. All that separated them was just a few stair steps and a road.

Grabbing her bag, she ran the downstairs of the cafe, out of its door. She was scared that when she went out, he would no longer be there. She was thinking of the most possible and fastest way to cross the road without waiting for the cars or without getting hit by them.

Once she made her way out of the cafe, her heart dropped when she no longer found him across the street.

He couldn't have left. Y/N thought, feeling her throat tightening. Didn't he see me? But he smiled...

If anyone touched her at the moment, she could cry. She regretted the last time for letting him go, just like this.

Looking more carefully for him on the other side of the street, there was no one. A heavy sigh skipped her mouth, as she looked at her legs. She shouldn't have hoped for too much.

"Do I know you?" A voice said beside Y/N snapping her mind back to her.

She lifted her head, looking to her right, feeling her heart beat increasing in her chest cavity.

She didn't know whether to cry or to smile or to jump in his arms and hug from where he stood. But she remained still, eyes glittering under the sunlight, staring at him.
