Dirk walked out onto the deck and leaned on the rail. Taking a regular cigarette out and lighting it up, he deeply inhale it and blew out a deep puff.
He looked out over the open sea as his mind wandered to his breakup with Alicia. They had been so perfect together! She saved him from the brink and he had loved her with all of his heart. He had thought it was nearly perfect.
Until...the day they broke up. Alicia had given him little warning.
He wondered whether it was him. Whether he had done something wrong in order to make Alicia do something like that.
Placing his arms on the rail and holding his head down, Dirk started to cry. He tried to stuff it up, but it just came out all at once.
Suddenly, out of the blue something caught Dirk's attention. Standing out from salty smell of the ocean air came a scent of flowers...but he didn't know what kind...despite the smell being so familiar.
His tears drying up quickly, Dirk lifted his head up and looked towards the deck. There he saw the Japanese girl from before still in her kimono. He watched her long hair flowing behind her as she looked at the vast ocean.
One of the first things that came out of Dirk's mind was that it looked so much like a fucking fairytale scene, but after that a longing began. Dirk wanted to talk to this girl and hold her, even though he didn't even know her. |
