Week #1 - Strangers to lovers

He first spied her when he stepped into the hotel lobby. She was sitting quietly, absentmindedly twirling her hair with her dainty fingers, focusing on the paperback novel clutched in her hands, and yet this simple glance was strong enough to capture his whole attention. He could not help but stopped to admire.

She first felt his glance when she was about to turn the page of her novel. She looked up, thinking it was someone she knew, only to draw a blank. She gave him a coy smile, and went right back to the novel she was reading.

His breath was taken away , his heart was beating wildly and a thousand thoughts rushed through his mind. Never before had he known such beauty, and he knew this was an opportunity that will never present itself again. He began walking in her direction.

Her train of thought was interrupted by the footsteps that came to a sudden halt in front of her. She looked up, startled, only to realize it was the same guy from moments ago. Up close, she could observe this man in detail, and it was not before long that she became aware of the wild palpitations of her heart.

He broke out in a wide grin and extended his hand to her, a hidden promise of fun times and adventures to come.

She shyly accepted his hand and surrendered her heart to the allure and mysteries of this stranger man.

And together, this greek couple strolled out of the hotel lobby hand in hand, and into the setting sun.
