Stranger

The moment is simple. You looked down on your phone to check the timein the middle of your short journey on a bus  It is getting hotter as you feel the ray of sunshine on your skin, your coat rests next to you. It is ten minutes past two at noon. You have twenty minutes before your appointment, or your Philosophy class, perhaps. Then you looked up, maybe out of reflex or serendipity, outside the window as the bus is stopping at its stop, waiting for more passengers to get in, you caught in the eyes of a stranger that happen to walk by on the sidewalk. He is slightly shorter than the average, fairly pale skin and dark haired. He does not seem to care with this world as he walked by with his chin up. You never believed in love at the first sight, but for that whole second, you do.
