Her. A short and random idea. [11]
Actually here's a new edit. Read this one instead :[
Her.
She liked the night in that city.
It was not so much the night itself though. In fact she did not like nighttime much more than the day. It was deception, surely it was. Nighttime would in its empty darkness and promise to wipe away her past, a promise that was broken time and time again. She felt cheated. And although she knew that it was a silly reason, she stuck by it.
This city was different though. Different from her past. She liked it because night could not trick her here.
She liked the lights and she liked the sounds, but most of all, she liked the people.
A little too active, a little too sophisticated, and a little too impolite.
But she liked them all the same.
She came to this city on impulse, never really thinking about it before boarding that train. She liked trains too. She made a habit of boarding them overnight. Dreams come true on trains after all.
Maybe she was a little too superstitious.
The city was wild to say the least. She wasn't sure of it. But then again she was always so hesitant. So cautious.
She was pretty to put it plainly. She never thought much of it though. She valued modesty yet it had never benefited her.
Maybe she was a little too indifferent.
She liked to stand in that spot. From there she could see the only star that the sky would give to that city. The first and only one she saw every night. She liked to burden it with wishes. Perhaps the weight would make it fall one day. She liked to joke with herself.
The night rarely changed. The same people, the same places, the same things, the same air. Night air was mysterious in that city. It was something that could divert her from all of the people, all of the sounds, and all of the lights.
Maybe she was a little too easily distracted.
But the only light that night was the moon, and the only sound was her heartbeat. The only star was gone and the night air had left.
A little too quite, a little too dim, and a little too sad.
But she liked it all the same.
I'm trying to think about a "Him" and then a "Them" to tie it all together
