In this introspective personal essay, the author reflects on the power of first impressions and instantaneous attraction. Centred around a memorable encounter with a tall stranger bearing a "beatific smile", the piece weaves together personal experience, scientific insights about the brain's decision-making processes, and philosophical musings on the nature of love. The author grapples with the tension between instinctual responses and rational thought, ultimately concluding that such profound connections, regardless of their long-term viability, offer valuable life lessons and self-discovery. The essay closes with a poignant reflection on memory and loss, leaving readers to ponder the lasting impact of fleeting yet powerful human connections.All Rights Reserved

Everything is not what it seems and soon, Danny finds herself in the middle of a world she didn't even knew existed outside of fiction novels and movies.

Especially with those creepy threats coming from a "Silver Bullet", she can't keep still.
