The announcement came through and spread through the departure lounge , 09:53 flight to Shanghai is now boarding. I couldn’t bear to leave her. I needed her.

Her glistening blue eyes stared into mine, I knew she didn’t want me to leave either. However she needed to go back to her family in Rio de Janeiro.

I took her number in hopes that we could stay in contact after we part ways.

I took her in my arms; I wanted to hold her for a lifetime.

I broke away , I thought it’s too soon to kiss her , although I felt like we had a deep connection, we had known each other for about an hour.

I had to go.

We will meet again.

She waved and smiled as I faded into the distance and boarded my flight.

I felt my heart pang for her ; I was sure it was love at first sight however this was the first time I’ve ever experienced it.

My heart longed for her but I was still wrapped up by her soft presence and I had a warm feeling to last me for my flight. I’d message her as soon as I land. I hope she replies.
