#038 The Fool

A mysterious gentleman with a cape of dark magenta had been teasing me all day. He whispered sweet nothings into my ear with a velvet voice and I pulled him closer until our masks touched.

“I’ll kiss you if you catch me.” I dared him.

My dress danced in the wind as we swerved through the crowd. He chased me deep into the night and when the early sunlight kissed me, he removed his mask to do the same.

But, her perfume was flowery, her face too feminine… Oh, how I had been fooled!

I kissed her all the same.
