Infinitely sweet and feminine !

 Infinitely sweet and feminine

The magnitude of the goodness of her heart produced a radiance that shone on her face, on her words and even on the color of her clothes, so much so that we no longer saw her face, but we saw her whole. Its depths, its veins, its guts and its soul which imposes itself as on a throne above all beauties.

I was only sixteen years old then, roaming the hills and valleys of this suburb where I grew up and learned many things working closely with my father's friends who came and went to his grocery store , and attending high school just a few meters away. from home, but the appearance of this female, who must have been around eighteen at the time, had taught me everything about love in one go.

The fact that she lived just a few blocks from us comforted me a lot and brought me immense joy and the feeling of an offering received from heaven, even if she was continuing her final year in another high school further from mine.

But one day, during summer vacation, I heard from people around me that his family was considering moving away from our neighborhood. I had to spend painful days where I kept asking my friends and the first neighbor I met if Syla's family had moved.

No one could confirm to me whether they were going to leave or not, especially since it had already been more than three whole days since I had seen her in the neighborhood.

And nothing comforted me in this anguish, neither my prayers nor my questions to my comrades, than the idea of deciding to go for a walk near her house every evening after dark, to make sure that the lights are always on in my sweetheart's house.

And every evening, it was the fear and dread that gripped my throat on the way to his house, and which only calmed when I faced the tiles and the lit windows of this other part of me.

And it was humming songs of the time that I returned happy under the moonlight which added a white and romantic veil to my romantic adventure, and I returned home triumphant and joyful like a warrior returning victorious from a great battle.

And all the songs from that time seemed like they were made specifically for what I was experiencing and how I felt about this creature, and except for all the times our eyes met and our eyes stared into each other's eyes, there were also those songs from the time which confirmed to me that she undoubtedly had the same feeling towards me.

My happiness was then summed up in one thing; seeing her every day and at the height of all joys saying hello to her and seeing her smile at me with this angelic smile as she looks down. Because I would have been so sad and jealous to see her living far away from us, but the disaster would be to no longer see her at all.

The days of the week passed like this between the questions of the day and the rounds of each evening, until the morning when I saw her rush towards our grocery store and fix her gaze on me with a big smile; and as soon as I walked through the door and put her hand on the counter, she texted me and without any introduction:

we don't move.

Ah thank God, I replied without thinking.

Are you aware? she asked me.

No! I answered him.

And she smiled at me with her big smile with her bright and sparkling eyes and on the verge of tears.

I knew then that our love was sealed forever, and that it was not a simple love and a simple union of hearts, but an ocean of feelings and an entire universe that encompassed us.

I could read everything in her bright eyes, in her illuminated smile and in the features of her face which took on the color of each word she spoke or heard from me.

And the moments of our meetings, so brief and so quick, were eternal moments engraved forever in the memory of our depths.

And in each of these moments, I learned little by little to walk in the charm of the fabulous kingdoms of love and affection with effervescent feelings, moments exhaling an intoxicating Balm which projected us into air transport.

It also taught me during these years of my adolescence that this is the intense side of life and not just in the monotony of the days; school, football with friends and home to sleep.

I discovered this fabulous feeling of attachment and devotion to a being who now took on great importance in my life in a deep and unconditional way, and who became an inseparable part of me.

I constantly wondered, how can it be that feelings of attraction and such a flood of emotions can arise between two people without prior mutual knowledge, and who suddenly see this involuntary and involuntary perception rushing into their hearts? this ardent desire to live only for each other.
