Sunlight through the leaves and that perfect knit – feeling like we’ve found our little haven today. A quiet kind of magic when it's just you and your favorite cozy corner. Lately, these simple moment...

Here goes nothing. Probably. It’s been…a while since he was last here. Not a terrible time, not necessarily. Just...quiet for so long. These boots, for example - Italian leather, obviously, though he always did find them a bit much. A little too certain, perhaps. And these sleeves rolled up so high, trying to hide a little bit of ourselves, didn’t we? Always a little bit of feeling exposed.

See us, don't you? The way the light catches the fringe on the scarf, almost silver today. Likeed the silver, didn't we? He liked the silver. Remember when we used to drink wine outside on nights like this, back then? Before the arguments about whether the garden needed more roses or less. Almost forgot how to breathe without him humming, without the scent of woodsmoke and dust motes dancing in the twilight.

And there, wasn't there? That flicker in his eye yesterday evening. Recognition, maybe? Or just a need to know which side to take. We were arguing silently, of course. About whose turn it was to put away the milk, but really, it never mattered, did it? Now, all that’s left is the echo.

You’re staring, aren’t you? Steadying yourself. Perhaps a touch hesitant. Good. Didn’t want you to miss it entirely. This gaze, afterall - quiet determination mixed with a hint of trepidation. Do you remember the way the rain smelled? Fresh and clean, even when it felt like everything else had been dusted off.

Well, look closer. Isn’t it obvious? You weren’t sure she would be here, not really. But here she is. In those well-worn boots, with that particular shade of melancholy clinging to her like a favorite shawl. So, go ahead. Let the silent questions begin.”

What do you think? How did we do capturing “her”?

(Now, lets hear your thoughts!)

To help us refine things, consider:

• Did you enjoy the atmosphere?
• Do you believe she’s addressing a familiar person?
• Which detail resonated most - the boots, the silver scarves, the eyes?
