You guys, I was just in the elevator coming home with my freshly ground cuppa ☕, a carton of milk and 7 cans of catfood. 

I was carrying all this at the same time along with some parcels that had just arrived from my online 🛒 (yay🙌). 

We have a tropical storm over here right now so I was in my overcoat with my tiny little romper underneath, coupled with adidas slides (typical room-to-grocery rainy day scene😅)

When in walked 2 children, stepping in from the garden floor (5th floor). They weren't ordinary looking children; they looked very much like they had also just stepped in from another dimension! Both of them so magically gorgeous!

They were both soaking, dripping in rainwater! They'd obviously gone down to the garden to run around and play together in the rain. Their faces were so alike; I immediately thought, "This is a brother and his sister."

They were giggling at each other and hiding their faces from me as if they were afraid I would scold them for playing in the rain. I wanted to say, "I used to play in the rain when I was your age!" But the prevailing feeling  was to keep silent and marvel in their presence the same way we marvel at the sunrise or the sunset. 🌅🌇 

So, I kept silent, I just smiled and watched them interact.

I looked at the panel of level buttons (whatever that is called, I really am not sure 😅) and wondered why there were three floors alit when there was just them and I (and surely they were brother and sister!)

Curious 🧐🧐

The girl stepped out first and said goodbye to the boy, completely blindsiding me! 

"They're NOT brother and sisteerrrr???" 😱

As she walked out into her hallway and they said their goodbyes, I actually saw a red string connecting them! Swirling around each of them, connecting in the middle! 😲😮😱

Omgggggggg....

I saw it! 🥹🙏

And in a moment I also felt everything they were feeling: the magic of the sky raining on their faces while they ran together in the rain: those feelings fresh in their hearts! 

I saw the day after day after day they've spent together, and will still spend together, with just a few floors in between them!

I stopped. My heart and my breath stopped for a second to be in those moments, to dwell in those feelings, to taste what it all was...and to say to myself...how lucky they are to have met so early and build these memories together right now! 🥹🫶

I felt this warmth, this quiet place, filling my insides and then escaping through the pores of my skin! 

But before I started feeling envious, I recognized, that it had taken them many difficult lifetimes to finally arrive at this one: one in which they get to build their time together as early as now. They forged this meeting, this lifetime, this time, to meet as children, to spend hours dancing in the rain, just the two of them...

How many lifetimes it took to finally arrive at this place! To finally smoothen the road!

That's why I was silent. That's why I stayed still. I was in the presence of old dragons, magical beasts; souls who have loved so hard that they FINALLY MADE IT! 🙏

I am blessed to have had this encounter this evening, it is one I will never, ever forget! 

And I wonder why it happened.

I can only carry that seed of magick within my heart from this day forward and see where it will one day bloom! 🙏🌱

Thank you for reading. 🙏

(This is not fiction this really just happened to me!)
