With the weather warming up, Sera was excited to be able to get out and run through the parks the city had. Sure, she could run before the weather was nice, but it just wasn’t the same to the Nix. With Spring in the air and the earth budding with new life, it was almost like a time of reawakening for her.

So she threw on some shorts, a sports top, with a hoodie over it, and an iPod she recently got. Sure, it was used, but it still worked which was all she cared about.

She had been out for almost an hour when she came to a stop at a park bench. Taking a few moments to drink some water and stretch her legs, she looked around the park.

There was a lot of people out enjoying the weather. Some kids played nearby, throwing a football between themselves, laughing and having a good time. A couple woman had sat on another bench, strollers in front of them, talking between themselves.

And then her eyes settle upon a couple that stood out. They were strolling, holding hands, and very engrossed in each other. The guy said something to the woman, who in turn burst out laughing and gently nudging the guy with her shoulder.

It wasn’t hard to see the sparkle in each pair of eyes as they looked at each other. The smiles, sometimes a shy one from her, a broad proud one from him, it was obvious, these two were in love.

While it was usually an emotion she steered clear of, today she jumped on it, well, so to speak.
As her eyes observed them from behind her sunglasses, a peaceful, methodical song played in her head. The soft tinkle of wind chimes sounded, as if a gentle spring breeze had moved through and made them dance. It’s voice pure and sweet.

The smile that appeared on her lips wasn’t one of enjoying the couple, but from the sweet Emotion filling her. Who knew a simple run in the part would fill her needs in such a way?
