Théo

Under the pulsating neon lights of a city that never sleeps, he strides forward - black corset laced at the waist, pleated skirt caressing his upper thighs, patent thigh-high boots clacking softly on the hot asphalt. His silhouette, too perfect to be real, turns heads like an obsession that we try to chase but never succeed.

I was coming out of a bar, my head a little heavy, my thoughts muddled. The night air caressed my skin like a promise. And that's when I saw him. Back pressed against a tagged wall, one leg bent, thin cigarette between varnished fingers, he seemed to have come straight out of a dream... or a trap. Aiko. His violet eyes met mine as if waiting for me.
