My gaze lingers on the hand hovering before me, the long fingers reaching out to me almost beseechingly.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL61VLVBcmP
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.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdLGdmosht
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?744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7awSmV8SK3
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.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1Gbc7DbCF
The wind is fiercely protective. I battle against it to keep my feet at the edge, even as it shoves me back to safety.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyVwAw4nKU
Safety is overrated.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SYHNXWOb6
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.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpdKc53DqQ
You’re all that matters.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm7HKzkh0K
I rest my cold fingers on your warm palm. Your hand closes over mine. We look at each other. We look down.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8734DFmXeo
And we jump.744Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ROjyYeOSt
