I won’t pretend it was anything more. It was looks. Just looks. Shallow? Sure. But **** — sometimes that’s enough.
The top wrapped around her torso, tight but not loud, just the right length, showing just enough. That sliver of skin — her stomach… Anyone would’ve looked.
The pants sat low on her hips, baggy but not drowning her, falling in that perfect accidental way. Effortless — like she didn’t care. But it worked. It all worked.
The shoes were simple, but they tied it all together. Unassuming. Intentional. A chain peeked from her neck, rings scattered across her fingers — tiny choices that made it hers.
She walked past me, eyes down, texting.
I couldn’t help but stare. You would’ve too.
Then she looked up. Caught me.
A quick smile. Not flirtatious. Not shy. Just... there.
And then she was gone.
I kept walking. But it stuck.
Not her name. Not her voice — I didn’t even hear it.
Just the way everything fit. Like she wasn’t trying to impress — but ended up doing it anyway.
It wasn’t deep. It wasn’t love. Just one of those stupid moments that still linger.
