So there I was, all alone in the middle of the fair, even though I was surrounded by families, kids, teenagers and old folks,  loneliness was the only thing I felt since I came to what it seemed the happiest day for everyone.
   Maybe I'm not supposed to be here, I thought, maybe I should be somewhere else, maybe my bed, or reading a book back home, I don't know.
One thing was for sure, coming to the fair was a huge mistake, but I had no choice, I had to help my friend by taking care of his food stand, but still, coming was for sure a big mistake, even though he said otherwise.
   I looked up and down searching for nothing; I stared into the lights of the fair wheel and listened to the music coming from the band in the middle of the park. Sure the lights were nice and the music wasn't that bad but, nothing really felt right, I felt like a stranger in such a place filled with happy people and smiling faces.
   I sighed and looked up once again, but as I lowered my head, I got a glimpse of what looked like flames in a dark night, the curly waves that moved with the air made me take a breath, for my lungs stopped working for a few seconds.
   I had to find who she was, I've never seen a person with such power against me, I wasn't  able to look at her face but she took my breath away without her even trying. Maybe she was an angel who came from heaven to take me back to end my misery, or maybe she was the devil in disguise  to condemn me with such a sweet farewell of the world.
