had always been a very carefree girl, who wanted to do almost everything and anything in the world. After completing her education, she decided to take a break and went to Europe.
She backpacked her way through entire Europe and stayed at different places for almost two years. In those two years, she would work part-time in a few cafes or serving places too. She would stay in a city for a few weeks, explore it as much as she could and earn a little while doing a job. She would meet new people and create some everlasting memories. When her work is done, she would pick some other location and go back.
After spending two years in Europe, she came back home to San Francisco, but the traveler in her wanted to explore more. She again took a break and decided to explore Asia, which changed her perspective. As she visited the Himalayas, everything that she had ever believed in changed entirely. She became an entirely new person when she came back and her priorities were completely changed.
People around her called it as a reverse culture shock. Some people said that she was enlightened, but whatever the reason was – she knew that she was an entirely new person. Things like money, makeup or having rich jewels didn’t attract her anymore. She would stay happy with her cream-colored lounge pants and her favorite long faded tee. She started finding peace in the little things around her – in the laughter of a child, watching the sunset and listening to her favorite music.
Nothing else mattered to her anymore. She was a free spirit and she knew there was no one in the whole wide world or the universe who could bind her again. She was limitless.
She smiled a little that morning and thanked the universe for providing such a beautiful day. She looked at the sun and the perfectly lit yellowish ways brought out the best of her hazel eyes. She had short brown curly hair and she would often leave them untied, hanging and be carefree. She never thought of getting married or finding a partner. She tried several times, but it never worked out. Finally, after interacting with several people who had an entirely different set of priorities in their life, she gave up on the idea of love at all. She believed in the existence of love, as she considered it to be the purest form of our emotions – something which binds the entire universe together, but she also knew that it was not the right time for her. She stopped searching for love and decided that love would find her instead when the time would be right. Little did she know that love already started to approach towards her from a distant land!
She heard Blackie, her pet barking and decided to take her out for a morning jog. They both hit the beach and found it surprisingly empty. It was a weekday morning and everyone was busy getting ready for their work. Eva used to work too, but her idea of work was different. She had an extensive travel blog that had thousands of subscribers and she would earn a decent livelihood from her travel posts and articles. She was an exceptional photographer and would also sell her pictures that she had taken while traveling. All that provided her everything that she needed to live her life in peace. With limited requirements in life and a simple lifestyle, she didn’t have anything to crave for. She was a very simple girl who was about to have the most special story.
Eva never liked to keep Blackie on a leash. She looked around and realized that the beach was empty, devoid of anyone and decided to let Blackie go. As she unleashed Blackie, it ran towards the opposite direction in joy. The blue ocean waves were hitting Eva’s feet and making love to them in their own mysterious ways. Eva was wearing a light blue top and a pair of beige shorts that looked perfect, just like the amalgamation of ocean waves and sand in a beach. She closed her eyes and decided to live the moment. She felt the ocean waves and inhaled the wind that was both mild and cold at the same
