010


It is hot and humid. Small buildings bookend a narrow street. Many shops are open for business. Many people are walking to and from the station. A shiny black car makes its way down the street, careful not to hit anyone. It carries with it the sun's rays and reflects them off the windshield. For only the slightest moment, a bright flash of light is projected onto a woman in passing. Her body is rendered shadow under a translucent dress. The moment soon disappears. Every strand separates from its entanglement. The powerful light fades. The shadow becomes body. The woman walks closer to her destination. The car moves ahead. The driver puts on his signal to exit the frame.
