FICTION
Invitation to an Unforgettable Meeting
โ FLASH FICTION by Elisa Mascia
(Translated from Italian)
Elizabeth
– After waiting for the last ray of sun to disappear, diving in the depths of
the sea. She put on a princely dress, painted with rainbows and woven with golden
threads to welcome the invitation to an elegant meeting under a sky dotted with
secret dreams, shimmering reflections in the refuge of the soul that does not
give up on looking for its lucky star even behind the rain clouds.
Together
with Benjamin they run, leaving their fast footprints imprinted on the sand, foaming
waves take care of erasing until no one will ever know of that chance meeting
far from prying eyes that they have tried to dismantle in several attempts that
have often failed.
Their
feeling is infinite, Elizabeth says, and Benjamin reinforces her saying: โI
love you even more than infinityโ.
If this is not true love, where could
we look for it?
