as we were walking towards home, it felt just like another ordinary night.

but then...

suddenly a flicker in the sky. a parade of synchronous lights amidst the black backdrop. a wonderful explosion of colors.

i stood there, for the most part mesmerized. i was waiting for more, and i was watching til i was sure it was done.

J stood by me and nudged me, but i offered no words. i felt like nothing could best explain the magic i was feeling deep, deep down. it was the magic brought about by the sight of fireworks on a clear, night sky.
