He stares at her from afar. Her eyes are cast downwards and her lips are slightly turned upward. He tilts his head and squints his eyes.

A small piece of hair falls from its place, tucked behind her small ear. He smiles. He wishes he could be the one to tuck the strand back to its spot. Wishes he could softly caress her cheek and his hand fell back down. Oh, how he wishes.

He sighs. Ryan finally takes a step forward. He stops short. A small stream of light shines through a window. It casts a perfect glow on her small and delicate face. Ryan is entranced by the view of her beauty. How the light glistens across her beauty. How her smile creates a glow wherever she is.

Ryan smiles.
