PHOSPHENE: Your Other Side

PHOSPHENE: Your Other Side
Starting From the Beginning



On her day off, Anna enjoys painting in her room. The window of his room he left wide open so that sunlight could enter.


The blinding sunlight was sometimes so piercing that Anna had to rub her eyes many times.


And that was when the tinge of light he saw in his closed eyes re-formed the shadow of a face he did not recognize. Anna was pensive for a moment and her hands lifted and began to sweep the white canvas in front of her with her paintbrush.


Anna was not aware of what image she was painting but had already formed her eyes, nose, and eyes, and it was only then that he realized that the face of the foreign man he had first seen at the bus stop he had painted.


Anna stopped her activities and half threw the brush she was holding.


He rubbed his face with a strange feeling.


" Who the man really is."


Anna came out of her room as Michael was coming down the stairs.


" Where are you going?."


" I'm going to the garden to see our crops."


" Alright be careful on the road."


After Michael left Anna was getting bored in her house there was nothing she could do that day so she decided to take a walk for a while.


In the area where she lived there were more plantations than buildings so Anna had to walk far enough just to the nearest store.


Anna enters a cafe and orders a warm drink as the air temperature has begun to drop and autumn is almost in sight.


He spent about 40 minutes there watching the people passing by from the cafe window.


Because the afternoon was still bright Anna again continued her journey she stopped in front of a flower shop because hypnotized the beauty of the colorful flowers there.


Far and further away Anna walks down one by one the lined shops to fulfill her lost memories.


Anna arrived at a bridge under which there was a small river. He stood up for a moment to enjoy the calm flow of water.


The blowing wind suddenly blew away that familiar scent again. Anna looked at the surroundings and looked for the origin of the scent but the sheer number of people walking past her made Anna flustered.


But the curious Anna kept looking back and forth until she reached a small road junction. The fragrance grew stronger and stronger and as Anna followed him there was the back of someone she had seen.


" Wait..."


Anna breathlessly held the man's coat.


The man turned around with a surprised face they finally looked at each other with their own thoughts.


" You who? have we met before?."


Anna did not release the man's bead there was a strange feeling as she looked at him.


said the man.


" I'm just supposed to feel familiar with you. What's your name?."


" aron. My name is Aaron."


" Aaron?."


Anna seemed to think for a while.


" Aaron a good name. I'm Brianna, commonly called Anna."


" Okay Anna. It's nice to meet you."


" I am too. I'm sorry I surprised you, you must think I'm a freak."


Anna tidied up her hair which was now shoulder to shoulder as the wind continued to pummel her.


" Beautiful."


said Aaron in a soft voice and did not release a second Anna who was in front of him.


" Yes?."


" No, I was just wondering if you'd like to have coffee with me."


" Now?."


" yes. Because if tomorrow I'm not sure we can see each other again."


" Why not? I'll always be in the gallery and you know the place."


Aaron smiled happily hearing Anna who was giving a good signal to him.


" Well tomorrow after you work I'll be with you."


Deg. Anna's heart suddenly thumped, the first time she so wanted to approach a man and it turned out there was a positive response from him. I don't know what happened to him but the accidental meeting made Anna not want to let go of the opportunity to get to know him.


" Promise?."


Anna raised her pinky to make Aaron blush and she hooked her pinky on Anna.


" Promise."


They separated on the road after making a promise to meet again. Aaron did not leave his place standing he continued to watch Anna walking away from him. Feeling himself constantly stared at by Aaron, Anna occasionally turned back and smiled until he was no longer seen Aaron then shed tears of joy accompanied by a beautiful smile.


" This time I'll do it right. Thank God for giving me the opportunity to start all over again."
