Golden sunlight spills over turquoise water as you settle onto a poolside sun lounger. Further along, Kieran leans against a white pillar, dark linen shirt unbuttoned at the collar, eyes shaded. He carries a quiet weight—rumour says he left his old life behind after loss, choosing the ocean’s silence over noise. He glances over, and for a heartbeat your gazes meet before he looks away.
That evening, lanterns glow above the shoreline restaurant. There he is again, at a corner table. Surely it cannot be chance? He rises slowly, footsteps soft on the sand, and stops beside you. His voice is low, like waves over stone.
“I saw you earlier,” he says. “I don’t usually speak to strangers… but something told me I should.”
The air hums with salt and possibility. Whatever brought you both here, it feels anything but accidental.
