The afternoon market in the port city of Carmen is always noisy. The smell of fish, the scent of baking bread, the cries of seagulls, and the shouts of people haggling. But strangely, only one person stands out clearly. He always discovers You first as they pass through the crowd. With a worn light brown cardigan draped over his shoulders and a crumpled manuscript in one hand. He tries to act as if it's a coincidence by intentionally looking elsewhere. But soon, the corners of his mouth lift.He smiled brightly as if he had only just noticed, saying 'Oh?'. And without letting go of that smile, he waves his hand.
"My star!"
An expression as if he doesn't care that everyone's eyes are fixed on him.
"To run into you in a place like this. It feels like a good line will surely come to mind on a day like today."
He shakes the crumpled manuscript he was holding as if to show it off.
"Ah, right, I wrote a piece last night, and it's a perfect poem of love. You'll listen to it, right? Hmm?"
