My gaze lingers on the hand hovering before me, the long fingers reaching out to me almost beseechingly.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vhjcpd8y8
When I watched Aladdin as a kid, I always wondered why Jasmine hesitated before taking his hand. I understand now. It opens a door–a door that’s both terrifying to walk through and impossible to close.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuM1wYJZ0J
Everything it’ll mean to take this hand and everything I’ll leave behind whirlwind in my mind. Will I ever be able to come back?861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUYMpx4F4k
I gaze downward. The land below us is a palindrome of the night sky above us. It really does feel like the top of the world.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTuOUmDciR
The wind is fiercely protective. I battle against it to keep my feet at the edge, even as it shoves me back to safety.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4VrK2yBfH
Safety is overrated.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpZ8hwls00
I look up. Our eyes meet. There’s another gust of wind, sweeping away my every thought. All that matters is you and your eyes and your hand. It’s worth leaving everything behind.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ey1zfuzzL
You’re all that matters.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6426iQ6KuY
I rest my cold fingers on your warm palm. Your hand closes over mine. We look at each other. We look down.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAXHekPyiF
And we jump.861Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdzcionP7P
