Orange
glints danced across the dimming sapphire ocean. The radiant sun laid tangent
on top of the vast horizon. Seagulls squawked as they flew by in flocks. The
sky divided. Like a blanket that was laid above the earth with three different
colors. Each gradually becoming the other as distance was obvious. The segment nearest
to the sun burned a bright orange hue. Lines of light rays were visible, trying
to reach and break through the clouds. The sky directly above was reddish and
the outlines of the great clouds were like interwoven roses that floated overhead.
The opposite horizon was tinted dark blue. Night had already fallen on the
other side. Far, in the middle of the ocean, just beside the column of orange
glints, was a silhouette of a cargo ship. It moved slowly across the baring sea
towards the north where the Queen City was at. The breeze was gentle and continuous. Ian ran
his fingers through Ava’s hair as they sat side by side on the edge of the Centennial Park just a few feet above
the waves.

The Mover: Episode VIII
The
dining room was filled with flavorful aromas and laughter without any presence
of unease. Ava’s mother was very

make them laugh it all out. But there was something peculiar, she mentioned
about Ian being special—that he had a unique gift, and that the moment she
first saw him, she was reminded about her husband.
