Still plugging along. Thanks for my three reviewers so far: Museless Author, page-shelton2, and fireblazie. Much love goes to you all.

 

#83. Crowd

 

It was Saturday in Central City. The marketplace was a particularly busy area this time of the week. Housewives were out and about making their weekly rounds. They could be seen haggling with merchants over prices and struggling with large packages they had just purchased. Men stood in clumps, talking about politics and smoking cigarettes. A young boy raced by with a cloth doll in hand. A little girl who screamed at him like she was being murdered followed him closely.

 

He noticed none of these things, for his attention was focused solely on one woman. As if noticing his stare, she turns to look at him with a beautiful smile.

 

Yes… he is home.
